Experience the breathtakingly beautiful coral reefs of the Red Sea in Sharm El Sheikh boarding on the glass bottom boat

What you'll see

  1. Old Market
    1 hour

    Experience the breathtakingly beautiful coral reefs of the Red Sea. Enjoy the views through the large glass window at the bottom of boat, as you can see the underwater marine world without getting wet. You will go near the diving sites where beautiful coral reefs await you. Such a trip usually lasts around 60 minutes. The participants are usually accompanied by an expert guide who will be pleased to give you more details about the fish and coral species you’ll be looking at. Apart from being quite cheap, the trip is a perfect family attraction; children, parents and elderly people will all enjoy it equally. The boat is two levels; the first is the sea level where there are the seats arranged in two rows giving you the possibility to watch the sea depth. The second is the sun deck where you can relax, take some sunbath and enjoy the sea breeze. After your cruise, step back on land and finish your experience with a drop-off at the original start point.

Fabulous Trip

A fabulous trip from start to finish. Picked up from our hotel the ride to the boat was like a tour itself..the driver was so informative telling us the history of Sharm and it was really interesting. The boat was fine, not trying to pack people in like sardines..like some do...but instead being able to sit and have space. The captain even got my partner to drive the boat. The corals were stunning and the sea so blue. I would normally be snorkelling but due to a chest infection I'm not able to, so this was the next best thing! So glad we went. The driver was waiting on our return to whisk us back to our resort. Brilliant day ...thanks!

Worthwhile experience.

Perfect for those who wants to have the experience of underwater world without getting wet. Very easy to book via viator, they even pick you up from hotel and drop you back. Our driver was called Nabil. He was great! Gave us a little tour of the place on the way and back with lots of historic infos. Boat was OK but the driver played very loud Arabic music. Soothing music would have been icing on the cake. They also sell cold drinks on board. Overall good experience.👍

Worst trip ever

Completly waste of money, rip-off trip ,mentioned 2 hours but its included your pickup and drop off time, the boat is rotan look like going to sink , broken glass, uncomfortable seats ,smell of diesel made my daughter and other three to been sick, I paid more then £50 , the way to boat is very unsafe path, should not be on viator, hardly 5 mins drive on boat , stop there and going round and round to make us dizzy. Worst experience ever.

Magique !

Moment magique ! Le bateau passe à quelques centimètres au dessus des coraux, les poissons sont à portée de mains. Formidable pour ceux qui ne peuvent pas faire de plongée ou de snorkeling. Ils peuvent ainsi voir ces magnifiques fonds sous marins.

Great experience in Sharm el Sheikh

Was overall a great experience to leave our resort and see some other part of Sharm. Mohammad was very knowledge and gave us a mini tour around the area, giving us abit of history which was good to understand. The glass boat experience was very enjoyable good for kids our 3 and 5 years old really enjoyed seeing the coral and marine life and also feeding the fishes.

A nice gentle outing

Logistical arrangements including transfers were 5* +. In common with others in boat we thought we might have seen more albeit a lot is down to luck. A very pleasant and reasonably priced outing.

Nice activity with kids too young to snorkle

Very fun activity with kids. We saw a lot of beautiful fish and coral. Communication in English via WhatsApp was very good and practical. We were picked up at out hotel on time by a friendly driver, who brought us back afterwards.
