What people are saying about Red Sea Governorate

A fantastic trip in the absolutely stunning waters of the Red sea. The crew on board were friendly and professional and we thoroughly enjoyed our trip with them. We snorkelled and saw beautiful corals and fish and even two dolphins passed by our boat! We also enjoyed our delicious lunch and the watersports offered (Banana boat and crazy sofa). excellent value for money, would highly recommend

Fantastic trip everything was well planned and the crew were amazing. They provided coffee and arrival snacks, two snorkelling stops which gave plenty of time to see the reefs. Lunch was great and the time on the Island was a relaxing end to the day. Definitely book this trip if you are visiting Hurghada.

Best experience we had in Hurghada. Arabi was very helpful and gave us lots of interesting information, the best guide! Our driver was also very professional. An amazing experience and it completed our trip. Definitely recommend to everybody coming to Hurghada!

Very nice trip! We all did see a lot of fishes and corals under water from the basement of the submarine. Snorkelling was only for the brave ones. Most of us (tourists) found the water still too cold.

Ahmed and the crew were brilliant. Kept the group well informed and safe. The whole package was well organised. Me and my small family had a great time!
