Great guides, crew and itinerary
I took this liveaboard in August 2025. It was my first experience and was so positive I came back to the Red Sea to do a longer trip. I especially enjoyed diving the Carnatic, and the completing this along with the Giannis D were probably the highlight dives of the trip. If you are on a tight schedule and looking to do a great trip on a smaller boat with an awesome crew you can’t go wrong with Amelie.

Wonderful experience! First safari, gladly again!
Great boat, great crew, great dive spots and guides. We were also allowed to dive "unguided" if we wanted to. Terrific food, individually tailored to our needs. Almost a non-smoking boat with a clearly defined smoking area that does not include the equipment and superstructure area. Really wonderful. I would book exactly the same way again, maybe even longer.

Good value for small amount, especially for beginners.
The “ Best of Hurghada “ trip visits the easily reachable divesites based on weather conditions and the experience level of the guests. It is a great option for beginners to have their first liveaboard experience, and for advanced divers if they are short on time. Dolphin House is a main highlight that everyone enjoys regardless of the experience level, however when it comes to other reefs the more advanced dives are the more beautiful the reefs will be. 50 years of dive tourism has left it’s mark on some of the easier divesites. Food is simple but delicious especially if you like Egyptian cuisine. Dive instructors are kind and professional, equipment quality and general safety is also good.

Excellent !!
We had an exceptional week aboard this diving liveaboard, which accommodates up to 16 guests in 8 comfortable cabins. The living space is well designed: a covered main deck with benches and tables for meals and relaxing moments, and a top deck with mattresses to soak up the sun between dives.The crew was absolutely fantastic — always attentive, responsive to any needs, and incredibly kind. The food was delicious, varied, and well balanced (with carbs, vegetables, etc.), which is a real plus on this type of trip.As for the diving, everything was great: the equipment was of good quality and in proper working condition, and Nitrox was available for those who wanted it. The two dive guides were amazing — professional, funny, and caring. A special shoutout to Wessam, who accompanied us throughout the week and whom I warmly recommend.The only small downside was the organization on the first day, as the diving equipment only arrived on board in the evening.In summary, a fantastic trip with an incredible team. I highly recommend this cruise to all ocean and diving enthusiasts.

Exceptional Trip
This was my first liveaboard experience -- and it was exceptional. It all went to plan from the pickup at the airport to the drop off back at the hotel. The crew was fantastic and the kitchen staff made sure we were all well fed with some wonderful food. The Dive guide (Hisham) was well versed with the local dive sites and the briefings were good and on-point. Had ample space on the boat, as it was not fully booked. The rooms are comfortable. Overall, for the price, it comes across as a great value. The highlight of the trip was seeing the Dolphins at the Dolphin House dive site and exploring some of the best coral reef's I've seen. For a short trip, this comes highly recommended and is very beginner friendly.

Loved it
As a first liveaboard I have taken a part of the experience couldn't been any better. The crew was always helpful and the service was good. Rental equipment were good quality. Highlight of the trip was definitely the morning dive where we got to see the dolphins. That made the early wake up worth it. Only minus I could think of was the fact that our cabin was located right above the engine room. I would recommend packing a pair of earplugs with you. Extra thanks to our dive guide Mario who made sure that we'll get the most out of our every each dive!

My first liveaboard certainly exceeded my expectations.
Strong winds meant that we weren't able to set off as early as the crew would have liked, then it took what felt like 100 years for the marshal to come and sign our release papers. I didn't mind too much as I had a book at brought some games to play. Despite the delay the dive masters and crew worked really hard to ensure we still managed to get in the maximum number of dives which was amazing. The dives were brilliant and really varied, from coral to caves and wrecks. I also did my first night dive which was incredible the amount of wildlife we saw was amazing. We did see a pod of wild dolphins, but otherwise nothing really big. Which we wouldn't expect in the red sea anyways, but it was all stunning and preserved really well. Also the dive sites were not crowded with loads of boats which I liked as sometimes the diving tourism is too much. The boat was comfortable, the cabins are a little small but the beds were made up and cleaned every day which was a nice touch. The bathrooms also instantly had hot fresh water which let me tell you in incredible after a dive and something I'll be looking for in the comments on all dive boats in future. The crew were all so lovely and even had a lovely chat with the captain. The food on the boat was so much better than I could have imagined and different every day. I would say there isn't much option if you're a vegan (I noticed) but otherwise lots to chose from. The mid meal snack where also really lovely with a range of things like pizza and samosas not just the usual fruit and crackers. Would recommend this boat and trip to anyone thinking of trying their first liveaboard or going for a quick trip.

Amazing trip with excellent people.
I had an awesome diving tour seeing a variety of sea wildlife. The staff were very helpful and gave lots of advice. They even made announcements if dolphins were nearby so people can put their snorkels on and see them. The food was tasty and nutritious. The boat itself didn't rock as much. Their diving briefs were clear and detailed. The boat was small so I would not recommend for people who are around 6ft 3 or taller

Amazing trip with Amelie Adventures!
The boat crew & dive guides were all super friendly, helpful & took safety very seriously. Did my Nitrox course on board & the training was great. The food on board was good and plenty - exactly what you need after diving all day. The dives were amazing - dolphins, turtles, octopus, beautiful coral gardens,…. The rental equipment was fine - a little too cold for the water temperatures in December, so if your freeze easily, definitely bring a hood. Overall a great experience and well organized trip - 10/10 would recommend! 💙

Had an amazing time aboard the Eypros1 with the team of Amelie Adventures! The crew was very helpful, continuesly trying to provide the best service they could. After every dive there was a nice drink prepared by Mahmoud, followed by either a snack or a meal. Special thanks to our diveguide Mario and captain Hisham! They took excellent care of everyone during the dive and made sure everything was arranged before leaving. To Shref (and all the other guys I forgot the names of already) a thankyou for making sure we got to see the whaleshark and dolphins up close by being ready with the Zodiac boat super fast! Would definitely recommend :)

An Unforgettable Liveaboard Experience in Egypt
My liveaboard trip in Egypt was an absolutely incredible experience from start to finish. Everything exceeded my expectations and made this journey truly unforgettable. First of all, the crew was outstanding. Every single member of the team was professional, friendly, and always ready to help with a smile. They created such a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere on board that it immediately felt like home. Their organization, attention to detail, and constant support—both on the boat and during the dives—were simply top-notch. The food was another highlight of the trip. Every meal was fresh, delicious, and varied, with plenty of options for everyone. After long and exciting dives, it was always something to look forward to. The kitchen team did an amazing job throughout the entire trip. The overall service and care on board were exceptional. From the dive briefings to the equipment handling and general hospitality, everything was perfectly organized. You could really feel how much the team cares about giving their guests the best possible experience. And of course, the dive sites were spectacular. We visited some truly stunning locations with beautiful reefs, great visibility, and incredible marine life. Every dive felt unique and exciting, making this trip a dream for any diver. All in all, this liveaboard was an amazing adventure that I would highly recommend to anyone who loves diving. A huge thank you to the entire crew for their hard work, kindness, and dedication. I would come back anytime!

For beginners of liveaboard
I'd definitely recommend Amelia adventures. Wessam is a great divemaster and never leaves you alone. Food, beverage, and snacks are awesome. Vessel is nice, almost a new one. Water supply is a little bad though, the water stinks little but tolerable. They clean the room every day. The diving spots are open-water-friendly, you are safe and still can find underwater wonders there.

VeryeEnjoyable experience with my first time in the Red Sea
Definitely recommend for first timer in the Red Sea. A very nice short liverboard experience of the essence of the red sea between Hurghada and Sinai. Staff are professional and take good care of safety. Dives schedule is relatively intensive with 2 consecutvie days of a night night followed by a dive after dawn the next day. Sleeping time is not much, but it is sutiable if one wants to see more dive sites in 3 nights. Majority are reefs, which are very beautiful, but there are also 2 nice wrecks in this trip. Night dives are enjoyable with the guides here. Boat is a mid-sized one which is reasonable for a 3 nights iternary. Catering is friednly to vegans (I am not). Personally, I would love to have more seafood dishes in the meals. Just to take note on the total budget that equipment rentals (if you need) and other surcharges and tips (10% expected) may cost 40-50% more to what you paid upfront. Yet, the total costs slightly below EUR600 (with rentals) for 3 nights all-inclusive with 9 dives are good price in my opinion.
