Great dives
Es gibt so viele Tauchsafari Boote in Ägypten. Wir haben uns für die CU entschieden weil diese ein unschlagbares Angebot hatte. Das Boot ist ausreichend aber definitiv kein Luxus. Es gibt ein großes Sonnendeck und überall genug Sitzmöglichkeiten. Die Crew ist hilfsbereit und freundlich. Die Auswahl beim Essen ist nicht riesig aber hier findet jeder was. Grundsätzlich ist ein Trip mit der CU etwas spartanisch aber die Tauchplätze waren toll.

Amazing!
As a 22-year-old girl traveling alone, this trip was a trip I will never forget. What a great time I had on the CU liveaboard. The staff was super helpful and friendly, with special thanks to my amazing and experienced dive guide Mohammed.The boat is beautiful and the food was delicious and varied. I did the BDE route and it was really great. From a Oceanic white tip, hammerheads to treasure sharks, we saw a lot of beautiful things. The vibe on board was great and we were well taken care of. I definitely recommend this trip at CU!
