We paid more to go further into the water at Samadai and increase our chances of seeing dolphins, but we were not at Samadai; it was the boat staff who told us (I am Arab and I inquired myself with the staff). It is better to book once on site and check the prices and the boat's stopping points to see the dolphins. Additionally, I was contacted by at least 3 people who are asking me for the same documents that I have already sent, to resend them. Another point is that it is better not to ask them questions because they never respond.
good organisation. The transfer was on time, the boat was confortable and we had stunning encounters with large dolphin's pods.
Avoid opal travel and go to sataya. This s a scam. Life jacket ordinary and u wont see delfine
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. However, we would like to clarify that at Shaab Samadai wearing a life jacket is mandatory for all visitors, as this is a regulated rule for safety and environmental protection. Regarding dolphin sightings, we never guarantee this, as they are wild animals in their natural habitat. We always strive to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for our guests, and we kindly ask that reviews reflect accurate and fair information.
Wonderful excursion, great for swimming among dolphins, nicely organized, good food 👍👍👍👍👍🤔

It all worked out great. The shuttle bus to the boat was on time, the crew on board was from Opal Travel, all very dedicated and super friendly. In the best weather we saw a lot of dolphins.
Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass alles reibungslos geklappt hat und Sie mit dem Shuttle, der Crew und dem gesamten Ablauf zufrieden waren. Besonders schön, dass Sie bei bestem Wetter so viele Delfine sehen konnten. Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen! Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Red Sea Offers Ltd

We were picking up from our hotel on time. We had a nice group of people and very nice guides. We have seen a lot of dolfins 🐬 and we swim wright next to them. You get time anought to swim. Later we swim around the coral 🪸 and we saw a lot of different fish.🐠🐟🐡 The lunch was also great 👍
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re very happy to hear that everything went smoothly from the hotel pick-up to the trip itself. It’s great that you enjoyed the group, our guides, and especially the amazing experience of swimming near the dolphins. We’re also glad you had time to explore the coral reef and see the variety of fish, and that you enjoyed the lunch on board. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again soon!

You have to be aware that the journey will be forwarded to an X Bilibiegen provider. With us it was "Opal Boat" - who then Google can read you reviews..... The whole tour starts in Marsa Alam, where we take a hoseboat to the ship. We were lucky and there was little going on. At full capacity, the excursion is certainly a disaster. Dolphins were there for 2 minutes to see... That was enough for the Guids. The main thing is to go and end. When the dolphins appeared again and everyone was already on the boat, there was no intention to go there again.... instead we spent about 3 hours doing nothing on the boat while others were diving. To see dolphins, it's worth it, but you could have worked that off in a third of the time.
Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass Ihre Erfahrung nicht Ihren Erwartungen entsprochen hat. Wir möchten jedoch klarstellen, dass wir mit lizenzierten und geprüften Partnern arbeiten, die alle notwendigen Standards erfüllen. Der Ablauf der Tour sowie Transfers per Schlauchboot sind in dieser Region üblich und abhängig von den örtlichen Gegebenheiten. Delfine sind wilde Tiere, daher können Dauer und Häufigkeit der Sichtungen leider nicht beeinflusst oder garantiert werden. Unsere Guides richten sich stets nach den offiziellen Regeln und dem Wohl der Tiere, weshalb ein längeres oder wiederholtes Anfahren nicht immer möglich ist. Die Zeit auf dem Boot hängt auch vom Tagesablauf und den Aktivitäten aller Gäste ab. Wir verstehen, dass dies nicht für jeden ideal ist, nehmen Ihr Feedback aber gerne auf. Vielen Dank für Ihre offenen Worte. Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Red Sea Offers Ltd
I'd be happy to... This was a super nice day with beautiful dolphins without "hunting" for them. Guides and crew were great!!!
Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie einen so schönen Tag mit den Delfinen hatten und besonders, dass Ihnen der respektvolle Umgang ohne „Jagd“ gefallen hat. Schön zu hören, dass Sie auch mit unseren Guides und der Crew zufrieden waren! Wir freuen uns schon darauf, Sie bald wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen. Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Red Sea Offers Ltd
Really great experience, dedicated snorkeling leaders who didn’t give up until we got the chance to swim with the dolphins, really friendly personnel on the boat, tasty lunch and overall service was great. Highly recommend if dolphins is what you are after and have a day for it. Communication with Red sea offers was smooth, all info explained and well coordinated. Big thank you
