It didn't say that we was stopping at Orange Bay which is fine, and it was lovely but an added stop for my autistic son was a bit much as the description said a stop at Magawish Island. It also said that there was chicken and other meats on the buffet but it was purely seafood. I feel the description wasn't an exact match of the trip in some ways but we still had a great time and the guys really looked after us.

Es war leider nicht die gewünschte und auch gebuchte Aktivität. Ich bin davon ausgegangen, dass wir nur zur Insel McTavish fahren. Das war eigentlich unsere Idee und so steht es ja auch mehr oder weniger in der Beschreibung. Es steht nichts dabei, dass wir drei Inseln anfahren diese Tour habe ich bei euch auch gesehen, aber extra nicht gebucht. Es waren gestern Leute auf dem Boot, die eben diese drei Inseltour gebucht hatten, für deutlich mehr Geld. Wir wollten das nicht. Wir wollten letztendlich nur auf die Maga Wish Insel. Dort hat es uns sehr gefallen aber wir hatten dort nur 50 Minuten Aufenthalt. Das ist gar nix viel zu kurz und man kann dann in der Zeit überhaupt nichts zu unternehmen. Die Tour selbst war gut die Crew war auch in Ordnung da kann man überhaupt nichts sagen. Das Essen war lecker und auch sonst war es wie beschrieben aber wie schon erwähnt, hätten wir uns gerne die ersten zwei Stationen gespart und hätten den Tag lieber auf der letzten Insel verbracht.

Der Ausflug war sehr gut organisiert, unser Guide Kahlid war sehr freundlich und Aufmerksam. Die gesamte Crew hat sehr gute Arbeit geleistet. Wir haben viel gesehen und uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Danke für diesen unvergesslichen Tag

De activiteit zelf was goed verzorgd. Schip was in orde. Eten en drinken waren ok. Het vervoer voelde heel onveilig. Geen autogordels en hard en onveilig rijgedrag. Organisatorisch en communicatief ging er veel mis. Maar ook de hoge bedragen voor foto’s en de resultaten daarvan vielen tegen Ondanks alles een fijne dag gehad. Maar zouden het nooit meer bij deze organisatie doen.

Magnifique journée Très bien organisé avec un message sur what’s app la veille du départ : attention bien attendre devant portail extérieur de l’hôtel car ils ne sont pas habilités à rentrer devant Un chauffeur super sympa et une équipe à bord du bateau au top et le repas excellent sur le bateau La plongée était magique ( je conseille le port du gilet car on est tout de même à 6 mètres au dessus ) La 1ere île extraordinaire ; pensez à prendre chaussure adapté et masque et tuba car on peut encore voir des poissons au large la 2eme moins bien trop touristique Merci super journée je recommande à 1000%

Very nice trip to a different island near Hurghada . Beautiful tiny place . Then I’ve got a bit lost as it was also orange bay but ok ok might be my fault as I haven’t checked the programme before. Overall a nice experience, I would recommend it . Plus the guys were all about the safety during the snorkelling, big plus
