Excellent Experience
The shipwrecks were totally awesome to go through. I was worried about dive safety, but the dive masters were experienced, caring, and adhered to the safety standards of diving. The price of the experience was well worth it. Definitely a return to the Red Sea and a Blue Planet dive boat will occur again for me.

Fantastic Trip
We had a lovely trip!!! The food, dive guides, and the boat crew was all absolutely amazing!! The cabin was incredibly clean and surprisingly spacious. We had fresh towels and the room was cleaned daily. The crew helping us with diving was great. I never lifted a finger, which felt strange since I have been on the other side as a diving instructor. It was very nice to be taken care of so well. Extra props for hot chocolate after night dives :) The diving was great and we had excellent briefings from the guides. Unfortunately, nature was not too keen on this trip and the sharks didn't really show up for us. But that is no one's fault and we still enjoyed the healthy coral reefs and the surprise Manta Ray. Highly recommend this company and hopefully we will be back soon!

Excellent diving, excellent time to visit Egypt, and great crew!
I really enjoyed the trip and would definitely re-book. The crew was fantastic - professional and friendly. The crew really went above-and-beyond, in my opinion. The diving was excellent and it's a great time to visit Egypt; since tourism is down we had the reefs and wrecks all to our selves. While tourism is down, I felt completely safe and had no issues at all during any of my travel in Egypt. The diving was great - we had dolphins, eels, nudis, great wrecks, beautiful hard and soft corals, all just really nice diving. On our trip the dive guides didn't go on most of the dives - this was the first time I've ever had this experience on any live aboard or dive resort. The briefings were good but then they'd put us in groups and we'd go off on our own. Everyone was experienced so it didn't feel like a safety issue but it's still pretty unusual. Typically the dive guides go with you and show you the marine life, special sites, etc. This was the first experience like this - it was fine but not excellent.

Varied dive trip
Diving the Thistlegorm was amazing, as were some of the other wrecks - really nice variety of sites with lots of nice condition reefs as well. Visibility wasn't amazing but good enough. The dive guides worked hard to fit in 4 dives on as many days as possible, which was great but that did make for a pretty challenging schedule: wake up call was 5.30am, supper not served until after the night dive, so 9pm at the earliest. I had to sleep after both the morning dives, sometimes the afternoon one too! The crew were friendly and helpful. Only downside was that several smoked and also listened out loud to their phones on the deck which was slightly annoying at times. Food was varied and fresh with plenty of nutritious options as well as treats, and lots of it! Delicious juices after each dive. Overall a challenging but really good week (NB was my first experience of a live-aboard so others may have found it much easier).
