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!

Great liveaboard - as always!
Well organized - from the pick-up at the airport, direct transport to the boat, all inclusive food on board (coffee/tea/snacks/water 24h), great food (absolutely compatible/fresh/varied), incredibly great dive sites (moray eels/rays/dolphins/schools of fish/deep dive/...), diving in small groups at different levels of experience, great atmosphere on board, payment of the extra costs (National Fee/Tax/additional equipment) in Euro/Dollar/Egyptian Pounds or credit card. Liveaboard with LiveAboard as before is again absolutely recommended!!

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.

Fantastic!
It was a fantastic experience. The dive sites were beautiful, and everyone could indicate if there were any special wishes. We came to places where there were no other boats, so we were the only divers. After each dive there was a delicious extensive buffet of food ready. The crew is professional and friendly and takes very good care of you. The cabins are comfortable and equipped with a private toilet and shower. Recommended for a short intensive diving trip!

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!

Fantastic experience
The experience has been very good. The food and all the staff on board have been fantastic. We would have liked to set sail on the first day instead of waiting in port, but we understand that when there are many divers the whole check-in is longer. The same for the departure, we leave at 1 pm instead of 6 pm. It would have been nice to know about it for better organization. It would also have been nice to know that you can pay for all the extras by card but with a 3% surcharge. As for the diving it has been very good, we swam with dolphins, we snorkeled in wrecks, and we saw all kinds of fish and corals.

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.

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 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! 💙

Great diving adventure for beginners or divers who want to gain more experience
The trip was perfect for a first LiveAboard experience. Easy but varied diving spots. The crew super friendly and helpful. The ship in great condition and always very clean. Organization was also top.The only two things I would improve: a little smaller dive groups, i.e. 1 dive guide more. And the diving material was partly very used and did not fit 100%.

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.

Ideal for people who want to try life on a liveaboard. The focus is on diving and the joy of it, not on luxury and comfort. The cabin on the upper deck was more than sufficient for the short trip. We saw a lot of great stuff from the wreck to the Blue Marlin.
