Nice dive trip on a reasonable budget for advanced divers

We did a 8day/7night liveaboard on the North/wrecks/brothers itinerary, and our trip was 40% off due to a promo they were running which made this trip significantly cheaper than other options. We never made it to Brothers due to weather, there were heavy winds and surges in the last week of September. Food was really good and the crew were always very friendly and helpful. We stayed in an upstairs cabin and it was decent. The beds were pretty comfortable and it was nice to ventilate the room a bit since we could open our windows and doors. Overall the room was clean and they made it up daily. However we did have some mold around the sink area in our cabin and the floors were always wet since there’s no bath mats/towels on the floor. I can only recommend this tour if you are Advanced OW certified or equivalent. We were only OW certified and had to take the Advanced OW certification or done adventure dives to visit all the dive sites. While we did receive our advanced OW on the boat we felt we didn’t have as much 1:1 experience with the dive instructors as expected. They just gave us the online course, set aside maybe 10 mins max for the deep dive and navigation dive briefing that seemed a bit rushed since they were right before dives (and the instructors never showed when they said they’d meet us earlier). We did the compass navigation test/deep narcosis test on our dives and that was it. From what we heard from others, their instructors spent a lot more time improving their buoyancy and other dive skills when they did their advanced course in other locations.

An unforgetable trip

Discovery 1 is like taking a 5-star luxury vacation on a budget! The staff was kind and professional and took us to some incredible dive sites. I felt like I saw the very best of the Red Sea over 7 days, and this liveaboard is well worth the money. I had my doubts as a solo female traveler about visiting Egypt on my own, but at no point along my journey did I feel unsafe.
