I would not recommend Emperor again, since they sell packages they can't commit to it.
Sadly they sell this trip called "sharks" but even the guides said that the best time is more towards end of September to October. So in a week that we were supposed to see many sharks, we saw 3 in total. Very disappointing. One guide, Ahmed, was a really bad guid. Very unprofessional, didn't talk to me or my dive partner at all, and even left us swimming in a strong current and swam away, not even looking behind to see if we made it through. If he had any personal issues with us, he should at least have been professional and not risked our lives, as he did. The company changed the whole itinerary (including departure point) and didn't communicate anything to us. When we got there, we had other groups who booked trips with different goals, all together. I understand the Covid situation may have led to that, but as a customer I expect to be informed and asked if I agree with the changes in the service I paid for. I don't further recommend Emperor. There are other companies running this business in Egypt who are much more reliable and customer oriented.

Great experience in the Red Sea, but need to come back in the summer!
One group saw a dugong and on one of the dives we were joined by bottlenose dolphins! We also had the opportunity to snorkel with spinner dolphins, which was an amazing experience.

Amazing experience and a complete change in scenery.
Amazing coral, beautiful wrecks, seeing species I was not used to see since I had only been diving in the Caribbeans. The only thing is that I was cold all week, going in april is not the best time of the year. The recommendation was a 7mm wetsuit. Had I known there were such strong winds that made it impossible to lay in the sun to warm up between dives,I would have brought my drysuit. Other than that, the trip was great.

Overall the trip really was well run and your agency also very helpful with any questions that I had prior to the trip.

- The coral structures that we saw on our trip were monolithic almost prehistoric looking. I haven't seen anything like it in 15 years of diving. Quite unique and beautiful.
