Highly recommended! I would struggle to find anything that was sub-standard.
I really could not fault the crew and the quality of the trip. To a man, the crew were outstanding and I was really impressed with how seriously and thoroughly safety was always the primary concern. It was very reassuring.

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.

Amazing 1st trip in the Red Sea
Had an amazing time for our first Egypt liveaboard in the Red Sea! The crew on the emperor elite was amazing. I had my birthday and they made me a gigantic cake I got to share with everyone onboard. Would recommend this company to anyone looking for amazing crew, safety standards, food and the boat was beautiful!

It was a very successful trip. We had a lot of fun. The dives were relaxed and safe.
The expectations of the trip were met. The entire process regarding safety on board and the diver in the water almost borders on German specifications. Rescue exercises were carried out (evacuation of rooms, escape routes, wearing of high-visibility vests, explanation of fire detectors/alarms as well as the provision of tracking systems per buddy team as well as transparent communication regarding changing weather conditions). Dive sites were very well chosen.

- Safety process and paying attention to safety (dive site, dive boat, also dive site change due to changing weather conditions - safety was/is the top priority) - I haven't seen > like this before - TOP. Entire crew - we had a lot of fun together :-). the diving spots - highlight of course the snorkeling with the dolphins and the contact with the shark in Elphinstone.

We had a great time, mostly because of the crew—they were fantastic!!
We dove with dolphins. The underwater geography was amazing. We enjoyed seeing the variety of soft coral and fish that we do not normally see in the Caribbean.

Better than a 5 star hotel
There were highlights for each dive, but being on scuba with a pod of 14+ dolphins around us for almost 10 minutes was incredible. Diving the Thistlegorm has been a goal ever since I started diving 18 years ago, and being able to dive it 3 times, one after the other was truly a wonderful experience. Our guides and boat went to great efforts to ensure that the sites we visited were easy to dive without there being the need to swim too far or be overwhelmed by other diving tours - Most of the time we felt like we were the nylon divers there, and the Red Sea belonged to us. We will definitely be back!
- Recommended for
- The crew were always friendly, helpful and willing to assist with anything and everything to do with our stay on board as well the diving experience, whether it was gearing up, gearing down for diving, or waiting for you with a warm drink after a cool night dive. We always felt welcome on-board. The dive guides were incredibly knowledgeable about each site we visited, and always acted with our best interests in mind, ensuring both our enjoyment and safety. The meals on board are just out of this world.
