Amazing day!! - Amazing day from start to finish, all staff very friendly and reassuring. The sea was beautiful, yacht was great (Queen 1) lunch provided on yacht was very good, soft drinks, tea & coffee available throughout). We were lucky enough to see dolphins on our way back and the captain of yacht was brilliant as he turned the yacht to follow the dolphins so everyone got chance to see them. Excellent value for money, we didn't do the snorkelling or scuba however those who did had amazing experience. Best excursion ever

Magnificent day - As we were a group of 17 people, we privatized a boat for this outing which met all our expectations: beautiful walk, beautiful snorkling spots, friendly crew who showed us how they fished (a squid was caught and ran out of ink, impressive!), and to top it all off: we came across dolphins swimming and jumping around the boat: MAGNIFICENT! Good organization and good communication with Book Tour. Thanks to our guide for the day Hatem

Boot trip and diving - Great boat trip. Clean and tidy boat. Food was good too. Had to wait a while at the harbour before we could get on. Great diving experience for my 18 year old

EXCELLENT EXCURSION AGENCY - I booked three different excursions with this agency to do in Sharm, via email contact and I found myself very well, low prices compared to the excursions offered in the hotel, very organized and with a trained staff. Via WhatsApp you will be contacted the day before your excursion where they will give you all the references for the following day. I had such a good time that I will contact them again for my future excursions in Egypt since they also have tours in other locations. Their site is comprehensive in describing tours that reflect what you will be doing. Advised!!! There is no point in spending more on the same tours offered elsewhere but at higher prices. Special thanks to our guide Tarek.

An island that doesn't exist - A shoal in the middle of the Red Sea. It can be reached by boat from the port of Sharm, with a few stops for snorkelling. The Seven Sisters are unmissable coral reefs. After an hour of navigation you arrive at a strip of sand that emerges during low tide, an experience not to be missed

The coral reef: Sharm's only real natural attraction - Transport: the diving agency contacts you on WhatsApp to find out where to pick you up, and they will pick you up directly at the hotel. The transport service to the port is carried out by a driver not affiliated with the agency, who collects multiple people from nearby hotels, even for different agencies. All people are taken to the port, to be sorted to the various agencies/boats. We talked to other tourists and all the different booking channels (hotels, travel agencies, TripAdvisor,...) end up starting from the same place. We are Italians, and we were put on a boat of only Italians. Experience: The boats from the various agencies are all identical, and provide similar experiences. We made two stops for snorkeling / diving, and one stop at the white island. I would add that it is an experience only by boat, you do not visit the Ras Mohamed park by land. The crew of the boat is mostly very sociable and helpful. Some understand your language perfectly and respond well to you, while others will not understand you at all. If you only want to snorkel you should bring your own equipment, but if you do diving they will provide you with everything, but at a price. For the dive we paid €25 for the first stop (in addition to those paid on Tripadvisor). The team is very good at explaining how to dive safely. It is not necessary to be a skilled swimmer, you are accompanied, instructed and followed in every way. Avoid only if the idea causes you anxiety just thinking about it or if you get nervous. At the second stop, for those who proved to be better and safer during the first dive, they proposed longer dives, in an underwater "canyon". This dive cost €45, it was slightly more difficult, but it was worth it. Very very nice. During the first dive they take photos and make videos. They offered to sell them to us for €25, or €20 just the photos. Finally we went to the white island, or invisible island, or never-never island. This was a bit of a disappointment: it's nothing more than a small sandy shoal in the middle of the sea, packed with tourists standing around taking photos for Instagram. Not having Instagram, it didn't particularly excite me, on the contrary, I felt a bit like I was in a Fantozzi film. Summary: ultimately I recommend going there; the coral reef is one of Sharm's few real natural attractions, and this was one of the most interesting experiences of the entire holiday. In the end the white island was also interesting, even if from an anthropological point of view, rather than a naturalistic one.

Neverland - Lots of people and actually there is nothing to see apart from the white sand and the beautiful sea but that is everywhere

Choose carefully - If you want a snorkelling trip look for a specific trip that highlights this, this trip appeared to prioritise divers and then snorkelling . Was informed it was high season so the number of boats surrounding coral reefs are at a saturation point and I’m sure numerous ropes across and secured to reefs is not how we should be looking after this natural asset. White Island add an extra hundred visitors to the advertised photograph and you’ll get a true impression of how your visit maybe.
