Great week on a great boat
Seeing oceanic whitetips up close, and i mean CLOSE! The Blue boat is the nicest in the Blue Planet fleet, and easily the nicest of all the Egyptian Red Sea competitors that I could see. Dive guides were superb, and everything was taken care of to the smallest detail. Highly recommended. My only wish is that I had gone during peak season as we didn't see many hammerheads.

Super trip, with a nice crew and beautiful dives!
We had a great trip. The crew does everything they can to give you a pleasant experience. For example, we got nice towel animals in your room twice a day. The food is superb, plenty of choice and they try to take everyone into account. For the BBQ evening, there was even more unpacking. Dive sites were superb. Quiet locations, with not too many divers. Unfortunately we saw few sharks due to the high temperatures, but that didn't make the experience any less fun.Thanks for the nice holiday!

A terrific week with only 10 guests on a boat that can accommodate 24 guests. The boat is brand new and perfectly maintained by the crew. The cabins are spacious and cleaned 3 times per day. Very friendly and always helpful crew, fantastic dives with great dive masters (3 or 4 dives per day). The food is delicious, very diversified and healthy. A fantastic week !

Silky and oceanic whit tip sharks, beautiful healthy reefs full of colours and live. On the boat everything was great but the rooftop dinner really stood out. Our first time on a liveaboard but this has certainly exceeded expectations and we'll be back with the Blue Planet group!

Fantastic crew, every single one on board was extremely friendly and helpful. They truly cared about making sure all guests ans staff are having the best possible time. The boat was in great condition and the crew made sure it stays that way. Lastly the itinerary (Brothers, Daedalus, Elphinstone) was very well chosen and the dive guides had excellent knowledge about the sites and showed the highest level of professionalism.

Fantastic Crew and Well Thought out
The dive locations were incredible with the incredible wall, swim through and deep blue diving. The team planned the route and schedules around other touring companies to ensure minimal divers were in the water at one time. The staff were excellent and impressionable. You will always be welcomed by a new towel folded animal after every dive! Lastly, on the last day you come into the harbour and spend the night within the harbour before you depart. This was really helpful as it provided a good opportunity to bond with you, your boat and neighbouring boats the last night. Highly recommend My Blue for your next Egyptian dive safari.

By far one of the best liveaboards I have been on
This was by far one of the best experiences on a liveaboard. The dive guides are super friendly and highly experienced. The crew on the boat is extremely helpful and made sure everyone onboard was taken care of at all times even in the middle of the night. Lastly, the quality of the boat and cabins was superior. I would highly recommend this boat. Special thanks to Hussein (my dive guide), Maradona, Haitham, Darwish and Abu Salah (salon manager). Can’t wait to sail again on this boat.

The boat is the perfect size to be alone or with others, the cabins have enough space, all very clean and tidy everyday. Everybody goes the extra mile to make your life as easy as possible and pleasant! The 3 chefs are excellent and the food they prepare is so delicious you’ll think you’re also in a gastronomic safari! The crew is vey kind, really knows how to make you feel special. I found the pillow to high, the crew found me a medium one. The diving sites are beautiful, diverse and full of life, the guides make you feel in secure at all times and free. Everything was very well organized. They have pills for seasickness on board, refill individual bottles for the water, books and magasins, you can buy upper body clothes in the boat.

Not a single thing to complain about
Offers an extremely high standard of quality in all aspects - safety is taken seriously, food is great, boat is in excellent condition, everyone clearly goes above and beyond basic work ethic. As a side-note: On our trip we only had 2 dive guides for ~20 divers, so for some dives and for some people that might be too few
