Excursion en bateau à Ras Mohamed et à l'île blanche Mer Rouge et plongée en apnée à Charm el-Cheikh

Word of warning! Don't go if it's a cloudy day, you won't see a thing underwater. Organizer's are flexible and can adjust for a different day. Otherwise trip is well organised, guides are helpful and boats are big in size. A downer is the $5 tax for entering into the park. It feels a cheap way to get money from tourists.

Things that were good - staff work very hard and are mostly friendly - staff take water safety seriously and will support you if you're struggling Things not so good - they are disorganised, there were loads of moments we didn't quite know what was happening - most staff only know basic English and are unable to answer simple questions or let you know what's happening when you ask - constant upselling and they don't always let you know in advance that there will be a charge, e.g., offering crisps and then later demanding money, one gentleman was very upset to find out that the towel they offered him came with a charge later - there's a part of the day when you need to swim quite far to another island and the island itself is under water in the middle of nowhere - we understand this to be one of the highlights of the trip but it wasn't really our thing and was actually unexpected - lunch was served at 2pm which we thought was quite late. We were absolutely starving by then having been picked up from our hotel at 8am (that was 6 hours without any food - I did a similar excursion in Mauritius where they offered food and drinks throughout which brings me to the next point....) - the description says soda is provided - this is a small plastic cup of cola given after lunch. No other drinks or water were offered during the whole-day trip. - we had to take our shoes off and weren't allowed to put them on even to use the toilet. I found this very unsanitary especially considering by the end of the night the floor was wet with both sea water and urine Personally I wouldn't recommend this trip unless you are an adventurous strong swimmer who love swimming and diving and wants to spend most of the day doing just that or sitting on a boat travelling to swim and dive

A beautiful Pirate ship with amazingly professional, caring and kind guides. Went as a family of 6. Ali collected us from our hotel and entertained us throughout our trip….a charming man who was funny and just lovely. I had never snorkelled so at 68yrs old was very nervous. Slowly down the steps of the ship with flippers and snorkel I met Omar with a ring and a gentle hand. Suddenly we were off swimming and he stayed with my husband and I all of the time. He reassured us and dived down to blow bubbles, showed us how to relax and enjoy. Absolutely fantastic! Later he met us on white island and continued to teach us about hermit crabs, jelly fish too. He and the other guides were just amazingly caring. Ali then took us back to hotel after a once in a lifetime experience. Our entire party of grandparents, daughter and husband and two granddaughters aged 12 and 10 years had a great day and all snorkelled. What wonderful people. Thank you so very much.

Super day out with great company and friends. Bit chaotic at times but all was satisfactory. Food was good, and needed after some time in the water.

Even dive just from snorkeling the tour and the experience itself is amazing, the crystal clear water is surreal, the corals a show apart. The boat ride can get a little nauseous so I always took a remedy!

We booked the trip with a private company for £100 for a family of 4. Upon arrival at the bay, we had to sit in a very busy waiting area before boarding. There was plenty of space on the boat, and it wasn't overcrowded. We sailed for about 1 hour to the beautiful white island, you need to swim from your boat, it can get a bit rough, the guides offer liferings and life jackets if needed. We then got back on the boat and sailed to spot near the many reefs, we chose to snorkel only, I wish we had paid the £20 to scuba. A guide took us around the coral. It was superb. The onboard food was okay. Free soft drinks and tea & coffee are provided. The crew were very helpful. The sail back to shore felt like it took a while. A very good day that I would 100% recommend

It was lovely trip and amazing experience while diving. The view was lovely. There was only one negative. We book trip with eanglish guide but we went on the board with only Russian tourist, we were ignored by the staff. Only one member of staff was bother to asked if we understand what tourist is saying.

Amazing beauty .. I recommend this for family and people who want to try a little scuba diving but not for divers who are certified at all. The prices also varied amongst customers and the price for under water was extremely high at 35 usd . Nice people and good staff but the focus seemed to be on pushing sales. The music was far too loud and some western customers found it over the top! Still a good trip out.

Our time with Authentic Egypt was far above and beyond what we expected. Great hospitality and service the entire time. It was an experience I’ll never forget.
