We paid for the highest...
We paid for the highest package but still had to pay a. $12 life jacket and wet suit fee per person—which is mandatory but never mentioned beforehand. A cockroach crawled out of the wetsuit. They weren't going to take us to the Blue Hole as it was advertised, they only did so after we said we wouldn't swim otherwise—and even then, they took only us, not the others, who just swam near the shore. We got one small bottle of water per person for the day; we had to pay for any extra. You have to pay for the photos. They just herd you through everywhere like sheep and yelling at you to get as many pictures as possible to make more money on it. It feels like it's just all about money and comissions.

Fantastic Experience and Excellent Value!
I had a wonderful experience on this tour on Tuesday! The day was packed with different activities, including quad biking, camel riding, snorkeling at the Canyon dive site, a Jeep ride through the desert, and hiking through the Canyon. It was a great way to experience both the desert and the Red Sea the Dahab in one day. I would especially like to thank our guide, Zico Ahmed, for his care and professionalism. During the snorkeling, My son‘s face mask got water inside, and he quickly helped me replace it with another snorkeling set. I really appreciated how attentive and patient he was. The whole experience was exciting and memorable, and having a guide who genuinely paid attention to our safety made it even better. I highly recommend this tour.
