Fun family day - Amazing trip, I was warned for the low price it wouldn't be any good but we all had a blast just remember your sunscreen. We had a small boat ride to the coral then went down stairs to view under the water then people that wanted go snorkel where given the opportunity then we headed back it's only a 2 hour trip but that's the perfect amount of time when away as you don't want anything taking a whole day of your time. Whilst on the way back we where given a complimentary drink of soda pop this was not expected. You can buy drinks and snack on board. And you do have the usual photos taken for purchase but there was no pressure to even have the pictures done and no hard selling. We had the pictures as its all fun and its not often you get the opportunity to have family pictures done. They came out brilliant we recieved these in a memory picture book at our hotel reception the next day and then we was sent every picture taken to our what's app. Note: only cash taken on board

Great excursion for adults and kids! - We had a great excursion on the royal seascope semi-submarine! Booking on tripadvisor (via viator) was a PAIN! We had to try 6-7 times and almost gave up but then it finally worked. Maybe, next time we'll try it via getyourguide.com instead. After we booked online, we communicated with them via Whatsapp to coordinate pick-up. They picked us up from our hotel (Sindbad Club) at 10am and dropped us off afterwards (no extra charge) around 1-130pm. First we spent 20-30min on top driving out to sea. Then we went downstairs and after 15-20min some people went back upstairs to get ready to snorkel. I think snorkeling was about 45min. Afterwards the people who snorkeled took showers onboard and the boat drove back to shore. We were also given complimentary water and 7up at the end. It was a very nice trip! We liked that, unlike most other excursions, this was not the whole day but only 2-3hrs. Plus it wasn't too early in the morning but we were still back at the hotel for lunch. A whole day trip would have been too long for our son. The fact that it was a semi-submarine where you could go down and up as you pleased, particularly appealed to us as my husband and 4 year old don't like being in enclosed spaces for long periods of time but we still got that 'submarine' feeling and saw the fish in the water. The crew incl. Salam, the 2 Ahmeds and Abdul was very friendly. Since they picked us up and dropped us off, we didn't have to worry about anything. The price was great, we paid around $20 for the 3 of us. At that price we will definitely do it again on our next trip to Hurghada this year! PS: Tipping is appreciated but not a must.

Experience the reef underwater. Glass bottom boat allows view when dry. - Very well organized We did the tour with children. The yellow glass-bottomed boat allows you to marvel at the dry reefs one level below after a 20-minute ride. There were turtles and rays. Unfortunately, a good portion of the corals are grey because they are dead. But the fish are all the more colorful.

A fun experience - A really great experience for the family! The team were very friendly and made sure we were having a good time. We spent half an hour cruising with great music. We then spent the next 45 minutes in the submarine room and saw some amazing sights of the coral reef and fish! There was then an opportunity to snorkel. A great excursion for a few hours!

Activity that pleases children a lot - A good time that more to our children:) The staff of the boat were very friendly and at our disposal. The driver was great! However, the guide who picked us up at the hotel, even if he tried to make up for it, was very unpleasant at first with us, we almost cancelled the excursion ...
