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!

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%.

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.

Amazing Crew makes the trip wonderful
Wonderful, kind & ultra skilful crew - they are the real highlight of the trip. Took a PADI course with master Hisham, who's professionalism kept us confident at every moment. The beautiful Red Sea sites speak for themselves. The chef & staff kept our stomachs full and smiling at all times. One downside: not a single day with a fish dish, and only a couple meat dishes (I suspect a cost-saving factor).

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! 💙

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.

Overall, a good trip with some important caveats
I joined this liveaboard in January from Hurghada, and overall the trip was very enjoyable, mainly thanks to the small group size and the excellent boat crew. Because it was January and the water was colder, there were only five guests on board, which honestly made the experience. The boat felt like it was just for us, dive sites were quiet, and we were often the only boat at a site, which is rare and amazing in the Red Sea. The boat crew were fantastic, all of the boys were super friendly, helpful, and hardworking. The absolute highlight of the trip was two dives with dolphins, truly unforgettable and something I’ll remember forever. Another big plus was the flexibility of the itinerary. On one occasion, our last dive was planned at a very crowded site closer to Hurghada. When we mentioned we would prefer a quieter, more private location, the boat actually moved to a different dive site, which I really appreciated. The boat itself is a bit outdated, but it is clean and well maintained, with regular cleaning throughout the trip. Food was better than expected compared to other Egyptian boats I’ve been on - tasty and plentiful. The only small downside was the lack of sugar free soft drinks, which would have been a nice option. Unfortunately, the main downside of the trip was the divemaster, whose attitude made things feel awkward at times. From the start, we were told there would be two divemasters, but although several other staff joined the boat, only one divemaster actually dived with us, and the group was never split. This resulted in a 1 divemaster to 5 divers ratio, including one diver who was completing an Advanced Open Water course, which I personally don’t think is appropriate, especially when training is taking place. The divemaster was running the course during our regular dives, and since we were all on the same dives, we had to wait while skills were completed. While waiting itself wasn’t an issue, it was very noticeable that the student was not receiving the level of attention or instruction an AOW course should provide. It was honestly the weakest AOW training I’ve seen, and I genuinely felt sorry for her. Socially, his behaviour was also strange at times. On one occasion, he sat with us during a meal, but when another guest asked him a simple question, his response was, 'I don’t want to talk now.' This felt unnecessary and uncomfortable, especially given that he chose to sit with the guests. Another uncomfortable moment was toward the end of the trip, during the feedback session. The divemaster pressured us to give five star ratings for everything, saying that if we didn’t, we would need to explain ourselves. At that time, there were five divers and five crew members in the room, which made it extremely awkward, obviously no one felt comfortable speaking up. Finally, the divemaster also repeatedly insisted that tips were mandatory and should be at least 10% of the trip cost. I always tip divemasters, and I did tip him, as the diving itself was fine. However, repeatedly insisting on tips actually had the opposite effect - I would have tipped more had this not been pushed so strongly. In summary: The trip itself was excellent thanks to the small group size, flexible itinerary, quiet dive sites, dolphins, and an amazing boat crew. However, the divemaster’s attitude, the diver to guide ratio, the poor delivery of the AOW course, and the pressure during the feedback session noticeably detracted from the experience and made parts of the trip feel awkward. With better dive leadership, this liveaboard could easily be outstanding.
