Brilliant island - We booked the mahmya island cruise through our Hurghada ToGo rep. I must say it was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. The boats was separated into languages so English together, polish together, french together etc. We had an English tour guide Mina William who was so lovely and friendly. He explained the itinerary and what was going to happen through out the day. We got to see some dolphins which was just amazing, once on the island we went snorkelling (hire the equipment for free) and it was fantastic. There was an option to go back onto the boat and do some deep sea snorkelling but we didn’t fancy that. Buffet dinner was served on the island and it was lovely all the staff were very friendly and helpful. Young children was on board and joined in so when we come back with the kids we will definitely be doing this again.

Very nice day - To be honest! We had a really nice day with lots of great impressions. 3 spots, two for snorkeling and the third for Mahmya island with its mega beach. However, quite a crowd of tourists. But thanks to the unusual location and the photo points, you can easily survive that. This was our first snorkeling trip to Egypt and we stayed at the Grand Makadi. The booking went great, the communication was good, the necessary information came in good time.Thanks to Mina William everything as described in the offer. Punctual pickup in front of the hotel resort, then about 35 minutes drive to Hurghada to the port. There on the ship with a bombastic nice crew who did everything for you. From initial explanations to great atmosphere and supervised snorkeling. In between, a great meal was conjured up and everything was recorded on photo and video. In the end you could buy everything (photos on the boat, posing photos on the island, videos of snorkeling) for €60. Was OK!

Very good experience - Very good experience, the snorkel lasts as long as it says in the app, the inconvenience is that all the boats go there and you are not alone with your group, seeing the coral and all the world below is worth it, the lunch they served us was abundant My partner and I were varied. Then they left you 2 hours free on the beach of Mahmya island beach with very cool turquoise blue water. The experience is recommended.

Fantastic day excursion - Fantastic day excursion! - The hotel's transportation was efficiently planned. Ten minutes late, but it's okay. The port was extremely well-organized, with a separate boat for each language, such as English, Italian, French, Russian, etc. There was a nice restaurant and bar on the beach, which had good facilities. The beach was very pretty, with nice sand and clear water. There was a good variety and the food was tasty. Excellent beverage facilities. The snorkeling was excellent, and the flippers and snorkels were well-made. Professional divers were present to lead us around the corals. Numerous fish of various sizes and shapes were present.

So gorgeous - I'm glad I chose Mahmya out of the three available beaches. The rooms were really clean, and we had been given the beds closest to the water. Beautiful seating areas, a beach bar, etc. While the food is mediocre, the Egyptian bread was amazing! The drinks are good. Of course, the gorgeous beach with its immaculately clear water and fine, white sand was the highlight. From the beach, you can snorkel well and swim right up to the coral. It felt like we were in the Maldives, such a beautiful place!

Flawless - Everything was flawless! I would like employees to let people know about two things. Apply sunscreen at least 60 minutes before swimming, and avoid touching the reefs. For men, it's a paradise, but it's bad for marine life. Many individuals are unaware of this.

Rip-off and fraud - Never again! Please don't book this under any circumstances! Sheer rip-off. I had to pay another 75 euros in the end. These are nothing but cheaters!!!!!!! Book through the hotel or Mamyha directly. The island itself is of course a great excursion destination. But I would never book it here again.
