Definitely Not Luxury
This was anything but a luxury experience, and I would not book with Crystal Horizon again.
We were picked up on time at 7:30 AM, but it took 1.5 hours to reach our boat. We spent 30 minutes waiting outside another hotel for guests who never appeared, then made another detour to another boat before finally reaching ours. We then waited another 45 minutes on the boat for latecomers.
The driver and crew were kind, but the overall experience felt chaotic and poorly organized. The boat finally departed around 10 AM with about 50 people onboard, meaning long waits for the crew to herd everyone on and off at each stop, often accompanied by extremely loud music.
The best stop was Hula Hula Island with crystal-clear water, where we spent around 1.5 hours. Snorkeling was sadly too crowded to enjoy the incredible Red Sea fish and corals. The final stop at Orange Bay was also overcrowded, with overpriced drinks and just about one hour left to explore.
Overall, the Red Sea itself is amazing, but this was not a luxury experience and not worth the money and time. I’d rather have spent more for a private excursion to get the most out of the time there.

Thank you for everything provided on the trip. The price was competitive with other companies, and we especially appreciated the warm welcome we received from your employee, Ahmed. We will definitely be booking through you for future trips.

Not recommended
Unfortunately, the tour was not as it is stated here. Very disappointing. The tour did not start until 9:30 AM and we were also picked up 15 minutes late. There are not max. 35 people per group; we were at least 100 people in total. You have to take off your shoes and walk barefoot on the dirty floor. The drinks that are included are handed out in very small paper cups, and the water is not in bottles either. Unfortunately, the food did not taste good and was cold. We booked the Hula Hula beach but still stopped at Orange Bay because part of the group went there and part went to Hula Hula. The beach at Hula Hula was nice but very crowded (at Orange Bay it was extremely overcrowded); because we dropped off the other half at Orange Bay, we had to leave our beach earlier to pick up the others who were at Orange Bay longer. On the return trip, it took them half an hour to dock the ship because they were there too early. The snorkeling stops were the only good thing. Overall, however, I would not recommend this tour.
