Breathtaking snorkeling with great guides - Amr was our driver for this trip. He was kind, funny, and timely. He picked us up at 5:15am and got us back to our hotel in West Bank of Luxor by 8pm. He remained with us during the boat and snorkeling trip with our snorkeling guides. He was a genuinely nice and caring person who made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable. The experience with him was full of laughter and smiles. The Red Sea is the bluest water I’ve ever seen and the coral reef was colorful and full of all types of fish. Nothing like I have seen before. The tour included 3 stops and lasted about 6 hours taking off from a resort in Safaga.. The lunch food was nothing impressive and would be my only part of the trip that could have been better.

Wonderful experience for a novice - Absolutely breathtaking!! Everything was perfect even if a long day. As a beginner the crew took their time and made sure I was safe and comfortable so that I was able to enjoy the snorkeling as well! Food and our driver did a great job maneuvering through the traffic!!

Great Red Sea Snorkel Tour - Full day tour ! We had a great time ! We drove for 3 and a half hours yo Safaga making a nice stop along the way to rest and do a little shopping. Mohammed our snorkel guidenwas awesome to us Wolves (nickname for our group) on a great 2 reef snorkel. He was attentive and made sure we were all safe! Our group on the boat, Minnon boys, we nice and made sure we were comfortable. There was a buffet with basic food, pasta fish, veg and rice, we had our hotel breakfast boxes, so we were happy. We were told earlier on our visit that we had a road curfew of 6pm. We were on the boat at 3pm and started to get nervous about that curfew, and the crew were line fishing for their dinner. We contacted Heba, of Egypt Gift Tours, and she reassure us that we would were fine if we made the the first check point by 5pm. She contacted the boat owner. At that point the Captain was called and his respones was " Don't tell me how to my job" and proceeded to drive slower....we had to run to our van and rush to the for the 5pm cut off, with 9 minutes to spare! Thank goodness Heba was in constant contact us and the driver, Harras. The drive back to Luxor was crazy in the dark, but it was also an adventure we will never forget! Lights optional and some crazy led colored headlights but Harras knew what it all meant, drove like a champion and got us through all the check points! Overall an amazing trip and would highly recommend, just look out for grumpy Captains!!

Above and beyond - What a professional company and an amazing experience. The company was great at communicating and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. The snorkeling trip was so much fun and relaxing. It was our favorite tour in Egypt. It was also the only tour that truly meant all inclusive. They never tried to tell us we had to pay extra. We had a great time! I also can't not day enough about our driver Eslam. Eslam really helped make us conformable during the drive, stopping and helping us buy snacks and drinks over the long drive. He really went out of his way for us!

Funny - A nice trip out of town, they were wrong to tell me that the tour was in Italian (it wasn't) and I would have preferred to do more snorkelling instead of going to the islet, otherwise well organized and the crew also works well, the part of the " sofa" was fun.

relaxing - This was a great day tour out of Luxor. The drive went fast and once the boat ride/snorkeling/swimming/relaxing on the boat was perfect end to my Egyptian vacation. If I would make one suggestion. If you have your own snorkeling geer bring it with. Our driver MIDO was punctual, professional, patient and flexible. If you know you want to book this tour do it early and ask for Mido. If he is available you just got lucky.
