A must do and great company to book with!

This trip was amazing from start to finish. Got the staff on the boat cruise were exceptional and so friendly. They made sure we have the best time and they surely delivered great service. Big shoutout to the whole team. Snorkeling was great as you should give it a try the staff are highly trained and will take care of you every point of the day making sure you enjoy your time and are safe. Orange bay is a must see as well as the whole trip itself. Food is good and clean as well as the equipment used for snorkeling so I can’t recommend this enough. Big shoutout for the photographing team Falcom which took amazing pictures of us which we will have forever as memories. It is totally worth its money!!!

Awful.

A terrible place. Don't spend money traveling there. crowding of people in boots on the beach. Strange that all the boats from the Hutghada district go by there.

Horrible

Horrible tourist trap. Literally. They drop you off on the island and there is only sunbathing to do. Charged me €7 for a espresso that wasn’t even an espresso! Just a pad from a cheap coffee machine. €4 for a bottle of water. Ridiculous. I thought it was a Snorkling location. That’s how they sold me the trip. But it’s just a beach with tourists. If you like fake people this is your place! I can’t wait to leave

Amazing day with great crew!

The whole day was wonderful! The crew was very friendly and helpful. While snorkeling, I was grateful to have a professional instructor (Mido) helping me in the water. The whole crew had an uplifting mood. All of my needs were met because the crew took good care of me. The lunch was delicious and orange bay itself is also beautiful.

LITERALLY PARADISE! Crystal clear water, beautiful location. A MUST GO!!!!!!!

Orange bay is absolutely stunning! I’m very surprised at all of the negative reviews. It’s literally paradise on a remote island, with crystal clear water and restaurants and bars do get drinks and food. First of all. It’s in the middle of nowhere! You can only get there by boat! It’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve seen! Of course it’s going to be expensive. In comparison to the rest of Egypt which is so cheap, it’s inevitable if you go to a beach bar where all of their livelihood comes from the tourists that come in boats during the day! Funny how people would be happy to pay ridiculous amounts on drinks in a dark and dingy bar but complain about the prices in a literal paradise! They don’t check your bag so if you’re so hard up, just bring some refreshments and snacks. I didn’t find it dirty AT ALL! So shocked to read this. Quite the opposite. Loved the beach bean bags and Egyptian rugs it adds to the authenticity of the experience. The water is SHALLOW! So it’s not really for laps of swimming but that’s not what you go here for. There is music a great atmosphere and some great spots for photos! Went in November and the water wasn’t cold it was crystal clear and on a sandy beach. Take cash as they don’t accept card. Just make sure you GO! You won’t be dissapointed!

Great trip, amazing crew and wonderful value for money!

It’s quite rare that you are positively surprised by a company. Egyptous managed to do so. We had an amazing trip, start to finish. Zizo and Mido and the rest of the crew gave us a true VIP experience! The boat had enough space for everyone and was sailing at low speed on the calm blue sea. You start the day with a boat trip to Orange Bay Island. The beautiful water and confortable beanbags allow you to relax on the beach, enjoy the beautiful blue water and take great photos to make your friends at home jealous. After the Island visit, they have prepared a healthy and fresh lunch with fresh vegetables, meat, pasta etc. Then they take you to the first snorkel spot. Unlike many house reefs near hotels, it is still alive and has a lot of fish. The water was warmer than we expected. Good location for snorkeling! Then they take you to the 2nd snorkel spot. Finally you have the option to ride a banana boat, but we skipped this option. All in all, amazing value for money. Special thanks to Zizo and Mido for going the extra mile to make this a memorable experience. I am a critical person by nature, but I can only highly recommend this tour. You will not regret it. Be sure to tip the crew well if you enjoyed as much as we did!

Great time

A boat trip to Hurghada with a snorkeling trip is an unforgettable experience! Sailing the crystal clear waters of the Red Sea, exploring incredibly colourful coral reefs and swimming among fascinating marine wildlife offer moments of pure wonder. An ideal activity to relax, reconnect with nature and create magical memories.
