My overall experience wad very good. The boat was comfortable (named the Blue Shadow) and the standard for Egypt was pretty good. All the meals were included (buffet) and the quality was beyond my expectation. The drinks were not included and a little bit expensive but it’s fair. When I booked this cruise many pickup point were proposed and since I was in Hurghada I have chosen the only pickup point in Hurghada. Here I was a little bit disappointed as it was not mentionned that the transfer were not included in the price. We paid 45$ each for the transfer, but it was in a decent car with a pri

The cruise was fine and the meals too. The only problem was with the tour guide, we were a small group and we change a lot of tour guides.But in general was a nice experience!

We had a great time in this tour! I am very happy I chose this one. Our guide Mahmoud was amazing. Very knowledgeable and patient. Super friendly and he made sure we had a great time. The cruise crew was very friendly and helpful. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. Food varied a lot and was of good quality and quantity. Basically the tour was a success overall. We were very satisfied. The activities were great and the schedule was nicely planned. We had a great time!

I was traveling with children, I had to cancel some tours because the tours started early in the morning. After the tour, we had plans to travel by plane. when we checked the schedule for the last day, they told me to take a flight late time. So I booked the flight at night. but the schedule for the last day was free and we have to wait until the flight for nothing and it made me very tired( if I could take the early flight if I knew last day was free time)

The boat was clean, the service was impeccable, the food was over expectation. The tours and our guide Talaat Abdo was kind and knowledgeable. The transportation was great also. Meanwhile, the local agency for Viator was not receptive and if it was not for our guide Talaat, we would not have had our last day tour!

The trip was everything we imagined and more. The crew were fantastic, the food was delicious and the rooms were spacious. The tour guide Bishoy made the trip. He was amazing. So informed, told great anecdotes you can’t read in a book and was able to answer every question. Couldn’t have picked s better guide.
