To do and do again

it was incredible !!!!! The crew was super professional and friendly, kind and pleasant. We enjoyed everything about our day, from the welcome, the diving, the meal, and the beach!. It was great, we would have wanted to do it again the very next day. Be careful, in the booking offer the entrance to Orange Bay was extra, €10/person. So €25, but it is well worth it as the services and the quality are there. The captain and his crew are adorable.

Highly recommended

It was very nice. Really. A very nice experience. Nice people - from the pickup, to the boat trip, the food - and also the return trip. Everything was very good! We have already recommended you to other hotel guests as well. And to friends who will also be traveling to Egypt. And on our next vacation in Egypt, we would very, very much like to come back to you. Thanks again for everything! And keep it up! You are doing a really good job and have very, very fair prices.

Avoid at all costs

We did not perform the activity. We paid and upon arriving on the boat we were asked for 37 euros more. We had agreed that there were customs fees amounting to 9 euros per person. We were asked to pay to access the dolphin tour and buoy. Why not include everything in the price? To this day I do not know if I will be refunded. Activity to do but not with TripAdvisor. Shameful

Experience to be redone

Beautiful experience. Clean boat and very kind staff. It was my first time snorkeling and the staff were very clear in their explanations. They helped me initially until I was confident enough to swim alone. The lunch buffet was complete, varied. There was both meat and fish, pasta, rice, salads of various kinds. Drinks are also included as per description. The program was kept, about 8-17, with the addition of the return to the hotel. On time, at 5.20 pm I got back. We made 2 stops for snorkeling, then stopped in Orange Bay for 2 hours. The company contacted me the day before for hotel pickup and on the morning of the trip they were constantly present via message to make sure everything was fine. Even during the trip they were always available. Photographers are also among the staff, so if you are interested you can take photos/videos both in the water and on the island.

Very nice trip to the island 🐠🌊

It is definitely worth booking this tour, on the way to the island we made 2 stops to snorkel, after that we had a delicious lunch on the boat. Our stay on the island orange bay is 1.30 hours. The island is very nice there are many choices of fruits, drinks, ice cream and cocktails. There are also many nice ways to take photos.

On top

We booked several excursions with book tour Egypt ( island of hula hula, Marsa Alam for turtles and Luxor ) and it was top at each time, for island of hula hula the boat crew set the Mood and was super cool, the Luxor the people who drove our van as well as the guide who made us visit was great, but our big heart cost was the person who took us to Marsa Alam it was so nice and there for us all day. I recommend them to you 100% always on time and no waiting, I contacted them on WhatsApp and it responded very quickly to my request, it is possible to pay in Egyptian pounds or euro. Thank you a book tour Egypt we came back with beautiful images in mind
