Exceptional day

We spent an unforgettable day with the family. The crew was wonderful and attentive. We were able to observe the dolphins and swim with them. Then we went to a heavenly island. If you are visiting Marsa Alam, do not hesitate to contact the guide Mohamed.hagag on WhatsApp. +20 10 23080308. PS: we have come to Marsa Alam several times and this is the best excursion we have done.

Only repeat on board

I did it again and took the boat tour Wadi El Gemal. This time it was a special tour; there were only repeats on the boat. Some were already known from previous tours, and others were met for the first time. As always, it was a very well-organized tour by the entire Wanderlust team. A dreamlike nature reserve with always different facets. I will do it again, and the remaining repeats will as well. I can only recommend the tours from Wanderlust, and a day like this confirms that many feel the same way. Such well-organized and executed tours are rarely found. See you soon, Team Wanderlust, keep it up.

Mega beautiful tour in a great ambience and flair

Great excursion experience with experienced tour guide. It was a mega experience in the nicest weather, great ambience, delicious barbecue on the ship on deck. Snorkeling with dolphins! Doreen, our guide was super nice and open-minded, funny and always available for a fun. We would experience the tour again in the coming year.

Great experience!

We really liked it. Everything that was promised, we also saw :) swimming with the dolphins was quite fantastic. Lunch was good and adequate. The guides were very nice, helpful and knowledgeable. The only small point was the group size, which was indicated in the ad as Max 15 people. But it was more like 25-30. Does that Experience but no demolition. Recommended:)

Wadi Al Gemal Island Worth a visit

We did the tour Wadi Al Gemal Island today. We were lucky and saw a lot of dolphins. It was super nice again. Doreen ontour accompanied us again. We had already booked another tour with Wanderlust on our last Egypt holiday and were so satisfied that we were on the road with Doreen again this time

Wonderful trip to Wadi Al Gemal Island with Wanderlust Tours

The tour to Wadi Al Gemal Island with Wanderlust Tours was an unforgettable experience! Even the organization in advance went smoothly – pickup, transfers and process were perfectly planned. The guides were not only very friendly and attentive, but also very competent. The island itself is a small paradise: turquoise waters, fine sandy beaches and an impressive underwater world. Along the way, we were even very lucky to see dolphins – a magical moment! During the snorkel stops we were superbly guided by the guides. They always took good care of the group so that even beginners could feel absolutely safe and enjoy the colorful underwater world in peace. On board we were well supplied with food and drinks. Lunch was fresh, delicious and plentiful, so there was nothing missing. I particularly liked the fact that the group was pleasantly small, so the atmosphere remained familiar and you never felt like a "mass tourist". Wanderlust Tours also pays great attention to sustainability and respect for nature and the environment, which I personally appreciate very much. Overall, an absolutely recommended tour – perfect for anyone who wants to combine nature, adventure and relaxation. I would definitely go on a trip again with Wanderlust Tours!

An unforgettable experience – my highlight in Egypt As part of my first Egypt holiday, I joined the tour to

I took part in the tour to the so-called Pearl Island as part of my first Egypt holiday and what can I say? It was just great. From the first moment I felt super cared for. The crew was incredibly friendly and helpful, our guide was not only sympathetic, but also totally committed and with heart to the matter. We were snorkeling on a beautiful reef with lots of colorful fish. The boat trip was pleasant, the mood relaxed and cheerful, and the food on board was honestly much better than expected. Really delicious and freshly prepared. I had an incredibly nice time, felt completely safe and well looked after and would book the tour again at any time. For me this was the perfect start to my trip to Egypt and definitely one of the highlights of my holiday. Great recommendation for those who fancy a bit of adventure, relaxation and nature. Successful all round!

Always very happy

Thanks again at this point for an unforgettable day with many impressions, a great crew, a guide with whom we felt comfortable in the water and on land and of course Doreen, who could tell us many interesting things on the side. The transfer from the hotel was great. On time and with an air-conditioned minibus we were, safely, fetched and brought. Not to mention the supply on board. Drinks, fruit, cakes and a delicious lunch. Just fantastic. We say thank you on this way and I will definitely see you again 🥰
