Good afternoon! We took the "Dolphin Bay in Hurghada" excursion. We loved everything. A precise, fast transfer. The "Cinderella" yacht — clean and well kept. A coordinated, cheerful crew that never let us get bored. We saw the promised dolphins in the sea. Unforgettable, impressive emotions. There was no swimming with dolphins, and that's technically not even possible. Watching the dolphins happens while moving, with the yacht at full speed. Besides our boat, there were three other yachts and 4 small boats. But there were two planned stops for swimming in the sea by a picturesque reef, and a third at an unusual sandy island. Sun, a light sea breeze, salty sea, unusual mammals, a colorful reef, a warm and positive crew, a delicious hot lunch with drinks. Snorkeling gear — fins and masks — was plentiful on board. Also, twice during the trip, a boat with a floating shop moored alongside us. Chips, beer, ice cream. Fixed price of $3. An unusual sight) Thank you to the tour organizers and special respect to the Cinderella crew!
Everything went great. We took 2 excursions, to White Island and the Dahab 5-in-1. Prices are lower than with hotel guides. Recommend.
