Best day of my life
This hole day was amazing!!! It was truly the best day of my life! The captain was amazing, Samir that handled the snorkelling was awesome even with the anxiety attacks of one of my companions and the food was incredibly fresh and amazing. They treated us with fruit platters full of mango and sweetie and took us the great coral reef spots. It was my dream come true and I am so happy that they made it a reality. I couldn’t have picked better!

An amazing experience - definitely recommend!
We had had a trip cancelled the night before we were due to go, so desperately looked for an alternative as it was our last full day in Hurghada. We found Egyptboats on Viator and checked their website etc. and found a half day tour. We contacted them via WhatsApp and they were quick to respond.
Really friendly and helpful, we were offered a private speedboat to go snorkeling, to Abu Minqar sandbank/island and looking for dolphins. A perfect trip for our 10 year old daughter, who loves all of that.
We were met at the hotel by the driver, taken to Hurghada marina and onto the small, clean speedboat. Captain Mohammed looked at us, with drinks and snacks on board, and great driving skills.
Seeing so many beautiful fish amongst the coral reef was an amazing experience! Mohammed let us have as much time as we needed.
We then set off for Abu Minqar and jumped into the shallow water to go and wander the sandbank. The sand and sea was just like the Caribbean. We found lots of beautiful shells and crabs hiding in the holes in the sand.
Back on the boat, we asked Mohammad to find us dolphins, so we sped off to the opposite side of the marina.
Here, we saw two dolphins and we were able to stop and jump in to swim amongst them. A final bit of snorkeling and the sun began to set on an amazing experience for us all.
Definitely recommend with Egypt boats 🐬🐠🐟👍

Private boat trip "en famille, sur mesure"
We enjoyed a super service from A-Z. Beautiful boat, excellent, friendly staff and amazing fond. Our day out was even better than we had imagined. A great experience for our first private family day trip which we will certainly be repeating. We highly recommend Egypt Boats to anybody looking to enjoy a special boat experience. Thankyou, x

Private boat tour
We booked a private boat tour via Egyptboats Hurgarda. The contact via Albert went really well. Our boat had a nice crew who took very much care of us and together we decided to visit an nice island and two snorkeling locations. Lunch was tummies and plenty of variety. We spotted 2 sea turtles and one dolphin and we even had great snorkeling around the island. The two other spots were different, one more shallow waters and one with a nice drop to 10m . Plenty of fish: eagle ray, fire fish, clown fish etc. Thanks we wil do it again

The best value for your £
The crew were absolutely amazing! They personalised our experience to suit our every need. Snorkelling, fishing, diving the lot. I went along with my two children (10 and 15). The food was fresh and very tasty. I am vegetarian, the kids eat meat and we were all catered for very well!

Great day on the sea
We had a great time on the boat and coral reef had plenty fishes and colours. A member of staff was on hand to guide us through the reef and helped our little one to snorkel. The moments on the two beaches we went to were magical too. We also had a yummy lunch on board. We had a great day!

A worthwhile snorkeling tour with the best staff
We were on board the Mermaid. The crew was very friendly and accommodating.
Hesif, the captain, was in a good mood and let us steer the boat.
Samir was our snorkeling guide, he also has a divemaster. He cleaned our goggles before each snorkeling trip and guided our group very carefully during snorkeling.
He pointed out interesting animals to us and dived for mussels and a sea urchin skeleton for us so that we could look at them.
He always made sure that we were all safe.
Ahmed cooked fantastic and plentiful meals for us. We were always provided with all kinds of drinks.
We felt totally at home and would love to come back on board the Mermaid.
The transfer that Albert, as the organizer of the whole thing, organized for us was also smooth and uncomplicated.

Highlight of our trip.
We had an amazing time with the crew of the Mermaid 🧜♀️. We started off with a trip to Eden Island with milkshakes and some sun. After this we went to a snorkeling hotspot and got to see so many types of fish with many colours. The food served was awesome best we had on our holiday. Easily this was the highlight of our vacation!!
Best recommendation is that if you have small kids take the time to teach them snorkeling in the pool so that they are confident when you get to the ocean. The full snorkle face masks you can get in the shops at neverland are very good.
Finally big thank you to the crew and can't wait to comeback next year for a repeat visit.

An unforgettable day
It was an unforgettable experience! Everyone on board was very courteous, friendly and attentive. Not pushy at all! We were on board with kids, who were treated like kings 🙈 They were allowed to be with the captain and "help out". An unforgettable experience for them! The food was freshly cooked, very delicious!!!
We were taken to a snorkeling spot that was incredible! And we were the only ones there! No crowds, no fins on our faces. We were picked up at the hotel and then driven back again, we were out and about all day and the time flew by! The trip was adapted to our needs. We would be happy to do it again! Thank you Albert & crew for your professionalism!
