The perfect diving experience

The trip was really beautiful, perfect to explore the Red Sea and experience all facets around St. Johns and of course the rest of the sea perfectly. Furthermore, the crew + dive guides were very friendly and helpful. The highlight, however, was the extremely delicious food at every meal and that there were no hidden extras.

Experiential liveaboard

After a warm welcome on the boat, we were pampered all week on board. We had an upper deck cabin. This was cleaned regularly and decorated with a lot of imagination. Food was always fresh, plentiful and tasty. The whole crew was very attentive and helped unobtrusively to put on and take off the equipment. Took the heavy equipment from us when we returned to the boat. The warm outdoor shower was great. We were traveling with a private dive guide we would do it again. The dive briefings were easy to understand for everyone. In general, a lot of emphasis was placed on safety in all areas. The dive sites were chosen carefully so that we were not on site with 10 other boats. Most of the time we were diving alone. Experienced divers were also offered to explore the underwater world in the buddy team. After diving there was enough space to recover. To be able to use this everyone got their own Sim-karte.Am last evening we had a barbecue on deck and ate outside on the sea under the stars. But the crew decorated the area.A nice experience.Divers from different countries were on board, we all had a great time.I would book the Emperor Elite again.

Amazing crew who truly made us feel at home

We did the South and St. Johns tour with Emperor. Overall we really enjoyed the trip. The crew was absolutely amazing. They were very attentive and welcoming to everyone on the boat. They truly made us feel at home. Unfortunately the quality of the corals/reefs was not what we had expected. From my understanding, and experiences shared by guests who enjoyed the same trip before, the quality of the corals has drastically decreased since last year. Nevertheless, there were some true highlights. St. Johns caves and Claudia Reef were stunning. Furthermore we loved diving at Gotaa Sharm. Overall the guides listened to our wishes, but don't expect them to point out a lot underwater. If you like to go unguided as a buddy pair or group they allow and promote this at certain dive sites. Overall we really enjoyed our trip, the crew on board and our stay with Emperor. We will probably join another trip in the future, but we'll join during high season and/or on of the trips in the North.
