Experience not to be missed in Egypt. - Early December but water still nice and warm, friendly captain and escort,
With speedboat for 2 out of the crowd and sailing to where Dolphins are often, and so they were today, swimming close by with the dolphins and a very nice long jutting coral reef many colors and beautiful colored fish. And schools of fish where you get completely absorbed, and then relax on beautiful sandbank. Lovely afternoon. Few hours away from the crowds.
And brought back by taxi waiting for us!
Everything arranged online via whatsapp, quick answer and clear, and could be arranged immediately for the next day.
Anything goes, nothing has to.
Super!
Definitely recommended!

An amazing and unforgettable experience. Wow! - A truly memorable day. Albert and his team made this an unforgettable experience for my family. The dolphins were incredible. The boat was very nice and very fast! Captain Islam let the children drive the boat and he was also a great snorkel guide. The island trip was so beautiful with amazing soft sand. Thank you so much!

Great day out! - We had an amazing day, From the transfer with Sabry who looked after me when I became unwell to Mohammed & Mohammed who were amazing hosts for the morning, everything was perfect!
We didn’t get to swim with the dolphins as it was too dangerous due to amount of boats everywhere but the snorkelling was incredible and orange bay was awesome!
Thanks so much and we would definitely recommend and come again!

Great experience, great Organized, highly recommended - We were a group of 6 people and tried to book this great experience through TripAdvisor. Unfortunately, that was not possible at all. TripAdvisor absolutely needs to work on this and is really an absolute no go!
Shortly afterwards I asked Egyptboats directly and you had a tour off at very short notice. The whole trip was super organized with pickup etc. Ahmed our boatmaster was super nice and it was fun to drive with him. The snorkeling areas are fantastic and the sandbar just fantastic. Yes Dolphins we also saw but we were more sorry than happy about that. It's more like a drift hunt because really all boats gather and try to see dolphins. This isn't Ahmed now. How did we break that off, then, too?
Snorkeling equipment, water cola and a super fruit platter have made the trip an unforgettable experience.

Great experience! - A great adventure!
We decided at short notice to go snorkeling again on our last day of holiday, but did not want to be in a group with several people, but to have a private experience. Since another provider stalled us the previous evening and only cancelled late at night, I initially thought that this would be nothing more. But I started one last attempt and found the website of Egyptboats. I wrote to Albert, who answered me directly and assured me of a tour for our last day. We were picked up on time with a private transfer and taken to the port where a young lady went with us to the jetty to wait for our boat. Then came Max and Bassem. Skipper and tour guide. We drove to a beautiful sandbar where we could take great photos and saw dolphins afterwards! Then we went to 2 places where we could snorkel. We have received many beautiful impressions. My son was allowed to drive the boat once. We could design the tour the way we wanted. You could pay with cash or card very conveniently afterwards. Then we were driven again by private transfer to the hotel. It was a great experience I can only recommend! The crew is incredibly friendly and accommodating.

Perfect day on the Thunder - The trip was wonderful. We booked the Thunder together with our friends as we were four adults and four kids. The boat offers more than enough space and is well maintained. We were picked up directly at the hotel in Makadi and were at the dock exactly 09:00. For our smallest (not quite 5 years old) there were unfortunately only adult glasses and snorkel. But good life jackets for all kids. I would bring a snorkel set for the kids next time, as well as flippers for the kids.
Our captain was super nice and we had a very nice day. First stop on the reef was a bit crowded, but here it is still season so that was not surprising. The snorkeling here was still super nice and you are privately traveling. So you can decide how long you want to stay here. After the reef we left as dolphins were spotted and we drove to the spot at full speed. This is a wild ride but our kids and we sat right in front and really celebrated it 😀
And it was worth it. Our captain put the boat in good position and we could see the dolphins swimming right past us. This is so much better than from the high excursion ships, where you are meters high above the sea!!
Last stop was a sandbar. Real Caribbean feeling. There a delicious fruit snack for everyone, then we are back.
The trip was extra great for us and everything went really smoothly.

A great snorkel trip for three - The private boat tour is really recommended. We visited two reefs which are in good intact condition. Unfortunately, we had no luck with the first dolphin spot, but our guides did not give up. At another point we met a group of dolphins, which we could also see up close. A stopover on White Island was a welcome break. Our guides were very helpful and friendly. Thanks for the great day!
