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.

Throughout pleasant experience

Great experience on board Elite. On-time pickup and transfers. Great crew, good communication throughout the whole journey. Superb meals and complimentary soft drinks and hot drinks were provided. All the staff seemed to be very safety minded: Captain reacting to adverse weather and changing the itinerary on short notice, thorough boat briefing was given, cautious policy regarding charging of devices was followed and all the dive briefings were very clear. Filling of scuba tanks was quick, with the proper Nitrox level and all the staff was helpful on the dive deck. The dives provided by Guide Mostafa were really well conducted and I always had a good time in the water.

Outstanding Experience with an amazing crew and Co-Divers!

This was our first Dive Safari, and it was an amazing experience. The Emperor Elite is a spacious and comfortable ship and has all that you need on board for a great safari experience. The crew is extremely helpful in every aspect; The Diveguides, Momo and Saad look after each and everyone - you can be sure to have lots of great dives. The Emperor Elite is really well equipped - being provided with Nitrox is a great plus, and there is enough comfortable options in the lounge area to charge lamps, computers, cameras etc... This cruise was very special as it was a group of 26 guests, from 15! different Nations - ranging from 20 - 1000+ dives, not only it has been great fun to get to know many different people - but you could also learn something from each and everyone. Momo and Saad were our guides - and I never had such professional briefings prior diving in my previous 5+ years of diving - they are wonderful guides and extremely nice people. But that is true for all the crew on board. And the food the chefs create on board throughout the day, is nothing but stunning - super tasty and nicely presented - and with a variety that there is something for everybody. A big thank you to everyone there!!
