A great experience

I would highly recommend this course as it is a great course to complete as you will learn lots of skills. These skills will help you in a variety of situations while diving but they are also helpful when doing other aquatic activities. So if you want a adrenaline kick. Also the instructors are all very co operative and will have a joke with you. Especially julian.

Training at Pyramid Diving Centre

He received an OWD course, excellent teaching, instructor Hamdi explained everything well in Russian, calmly, slowly, answered all questions. The equipment is good, everything is in sufficient quantity. Thanks to the staff, helping with the equipment transfer. It's all very well, I'll be back here next summer getting Advanced.

An amazing three days of learning to dive

Had an amazing three days of driving while doing my PADI open diving course, I recommend this dive site at albatross palace, we saw many different species of fish and the beautiful coral reef. Our instructor, Mahmoud Zidan, was very friendly and very patient with me while learning to dive. This was an experience I will never forget.

Exceptional Diving Center

Omar had an amazing diving experience with his instructor Mohammad Abdulkarim who is an amazing instructor, his patience and cool attitude made Omar experience very enjoyable. the four days we spent was exceptional, either with the warm and friendly attitude of the whole team of Pyramids either at Rixos hotel or other Pyramids diving center locations. last day boat trip was exceptional, we all enjoyed diving and snorkeling with Shathli. I wont forget our first contact with Sam at Pyramids Beach Kiosk at Rixos Hotel, his friendliness and smile made us decide to choose Pyramids. highly recommended. Mohammad Abdulkarim, thank you for every thing you did.
