Full Day Snorkeling Trip to the Red Sea in Safaga from Luxor

Breathtaking snorkeling with great guides

Amr was our driver for this trip. He was kind, funny, and timely. He picked us up at 5:15am and got us back to our hotel in West Bank of Luxor by 8pm. He remained with us during the boat and snorkeling trip with our snorkeling guides. He was a genuinely nice and caring person who made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable. The experience with him was full of laughter and smiles. The Red Sea is the bluest water I’ve ever seen and the coral reef was colorful and full of all types of fish. Nothing like I have seen before. The tour included 3 stops and lasted about 6 hours taking off from a resort in Safaga.. The lunch food was nothing impressive and would be my only part of the trip that could have been better.

Wonderful experience for a novice

Absolutely breathtaking!! Everything was perfect even if a long day. As a beginner the crew took their time and made sure I was safe and comfortable so that I was able to enjoy the snorkeling as well! Food and our driver did a great job maneuvering through the traffic!!

Fun day on the water

Amazing trip, fun day on the water. Mido was a great driver, careful and made sure we got to our destinations safe.

Awesome experience snorkeling

Everything was amazing! Our drive was great and on time. The reef was so gorgeous and we saw many types of fish in the clear waters. The crew was so welcoming and helpful all day. Lunch was delicious and we were returned to our hotel with no problems. Highly recommend the excursion with this company!

Driver Mido was outstanding very careful safe driver who was not only punctual but very nice and caring for my well bein

Driver Mido was outstanding. Very safe driving while arriving in a quick manner. He took great care of my needs and was very nice Really the best driver ever The tour and location also beautiful. Red sea gorgeous with so many different fish and coral

Funny

A nice trip out of town, they were wrong to tell me that the tour was in Italian (it wasn't) and I would have preferred to do more snorkelling instead of going to the islet, otherwise well organized and the crew also works well, the part of the " sofa" was fun.

relaxing

This was a great day tour out of Luxor. The drive went fast and once the boat ride/snorkeling/swimming/relaxing on the boat was perfect end to my Egyptian vacation. If I would make one suggestion. If you have your own snorkeling geer bring it with. Our driver MIDO was punctual, professional, patient and flexible. If you know you want to book this tour do it early and ask for Mido. If he is available you just got lucky.

Great Red Sea Snorkel Tour

Full day tour ! We had a great time ! We drove for 3 and a half hours yo Safaga making a nice stop along the way to rest and do a little shopping. Mohammed our snorkel guidenwas awesome to us Wolves (nickname for our group) on a great 2 reef snorkel. He was attentive and made sure we were all safe! Our group on the boat, Minnon boys, we nice and made sure we were comfortable. There was a buffet with basic food, pasta fish, veg and rice, we had our hotel breakfast boxes, so we were happy. We were told earlier on our visit that we had a road curfew of 6pm. We were on the boat at 3pm and started to get nervous about that curfew, and the crew were line fishing for their dinner. We contacted Heba, of Egypt Gift Tours, and she reassure us that we would were fine if we made the the first check point by 5pm. She contacted the boat owner. At that point the Captain was called and his respones was " Don't tell me how to my job" and proceeded to drive slower....we had to run to our van and rush to the for the 5pm cut off, with 9 minutes to spare! Thank goodness Heba was in constant contact us and the driver, Harras. The drive back to Luxor was crazy in the dark, but it was also an adventure we will never forget! Lights optional and some crazy led colored headlights but Harras knew what it all meant, drove like a champion and got us through all the check points! Overall an amazing trip and would highly recommend, just look out for grumpy Captains!!

Beautiful snorkeling and delicious lunch!

Relaxing, beautiful snorkeling and lunch with amazing views! Don’t miss a great chance to see the natural beauty of the Red Sea and enjoy a day on the water! Heba from Egypt Tours booked my travel to and from Luxor and made the day so easy!

Above and beyond

What a professional company and an amazing experience. The company was great at communicating and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. The snorkeling trip was so much fun and relaxing. It was our favorite tour in Egypt. It was also the only tour that truly meant all inclusive. They never tried to tell us we had to pay extra. We had a great time! I also can't not day enough about our driver Eslam. Eslam really helped make us conformable during the drive, stopping and helping us buy snacks and drinks over the long drive. He really went out of his way for us!

Great time!

Me and my husband did this excursion during the Luxor part of our honeymoon in Egypt and it was worth every moment. I was a bit nervous because it was our first time to Egypt and Luxor. I read so many summaries and reviews before deciding on Egypt Gift Tours and I am glad we did. Note! The trip is long (about 3hrs each way) but it was an easy ride that allowed us an experience we wouldn't have otherwise had. While long it is a relatively easy ride with good and diverse views/scenery of Egypt along the way. Care provided: Prior to our arrival, we were asked to provide documentation for the tourism notifications needed, we were informed of how to prepare day of, all of our questions were answered. Our guide/driver was very polite, helpful and thoughtful. He even made sure we were settled on the yacht before leaving us and was waiting for us when we docked to carry us safely back to our hotel. Experience: The snorkeling portion was a great experience as well. Snorkeling gear is provided if you don't have it. Instructions are provided and they have a photographer to help capture moments if you don't have a waterproof camera. We had a fun time and were able to see marine life up close and personal. The crew is fun and engages you at your comfort level. We had a mixed group of families and couples. All ages and swim levels were accomodated. Overall: While many will recommend you stay by the Red Sea longer, if you are not able and don't want to miss out, this is the way to go! Definitely a trip we will remember for all the good.

Great day at Sea

While in Luxor, my wife and I wanted to experience the Red Sea. We booked a full day tour which was expertly arranged by Heba. The car ride was long but well worth the time. The Red sea is so clear and beautiful. Our driver was courteous, informative and funny. He made the time pass. I would highly recommend this excursion.

Muy recomendable

Ha sido una experiencia increible. Nos recogieron en el hotel a la hora indicada en coche privado hacia Safaga. Con paradas para tomar algo e ir al baño. Una vez en el barco, toda la tripulación, fue encantadora nos llevaron a dos sitios en el mar rojo para realizar snorkel, proporcionando os todo el material necesario, nos prepararon una deliciosa comida y visitamos un pequeño islote. Experiencia muy recomendable!
