Just wow. Could not fault anything. Hany and Hassan are both excellent dive guides and really friend onboard. All of the crew from deckhands to chefs to salon crew to engineers and captain were also very happy, friendly and helpful. The room was kept clean and tidy. The food was varied and delicious. All dive briefs were clear and easy to understand, you felt very safe on all dives. I would definitely recommend to dive on the Emperor Superior, and I’ll definitely dive with Emperor Divers again.

A really fun adventure- I’d highly recommend it!
Not having dove for a while, I found the the dive guides very patient and helpful- they helped get my diving skills back up to par quickly. Diving and interacting with a pod of dolphins was amazing, as was exploring many of the wrecks. A superb trip!

Sharks, sharks and again sharks. The boat was very confortable. The crew was very kind and always willing to help. The food was delicious and not so spicy. The dive guides has a sharp eye to spot interesting marine life and let us have very long dives which is very kind of them. We are looking forward diving with Liveabord again for sure!

Diving the SS Thistlegorm. Ras Mohamad reefs. Photography opportunities, very happy with my images. The helpfulness of the crewe, they get a fantastic job. My wife is a non diver, but they took time to take her snorkelling so she could see the reef marine life.

Amazing boat and even better crew
The crew leader/dive guide, Sonia, is fantastic; so knowledgeable and experienced. She has an amazing way with people and made everyone feel comfortable and well cared for as well as bringing a great sense of humour to the trip. The second dive guide, Eric, is also very helpful and is great at balancing a laid-back attitude with an attention to safety. The rest of the crew are amazingly helpful and diligent. They are constantly cleaning and helping out all the customers. They will help you get kitted/unkitted every dive and it’s so nice to be greeted with a warm drink every time you come out the water. The boat itself is beautiful. Comfortable rooms with A/C and hot showers. Plenty of areas to relax inside and outside the boat. The quality of the furnishings was also surprisingly good. Last but not least, the food! The most delicious 3 course meals 3 x a day as well as lovely cooked snacks during the day (I was a particular fan of the samosas). I would pay good money for this quality of food in a restaurant so to be treated to it 3 x a day every day is a real luxury.

good experience for our 1st liveaboard in red sea
great dive with dolphins! nice wrecks like SS Thistlegorm and Giannis D due to windy weather we only did one dive in Shark & Yolanda, and skip the night dive at SS Thistlegorm but in general it is still a very nice liveaboard trip, enjoy the time with our guides Zizo, Sonia, and all crew members and other passengers on board.

Wonderful week in spite of the wind
From start to finish, the crew were warm, friendly and helpful. Their experience was evident and their enthusiasm was apparent. The boat was very comfortable and was reassuringly stable. We suffered a week of high winds but they managed the situation well and selected safe sites to dive and moor by changing itinerary as was essential and kept us well informed throughout. We are experienced divers and were able to follow group or go independently as we wished. Diving was well organised but not restrictive. Our guides, Eric and Aly were excellent and there is always at least one guide in the water with guests. Food was good and we felt very well looked after. The trip was excellent value for money without the dreaded bill at the end which You’re often presented with on other boats and the tipping process is discreet as you pop your envelope through a slot into a box which they deal with later. We were given slippers, robes and gifted a dry bag plus Egyptian sims for our phones, very nice touches. I would highly recommend Emperor as a company and Superior as a great boat.

Great trip with excellent service
We were unfortunate to have high winds during our trip however, the dive sites were managed to give us the best experience whilst maintaining a high level of safety. The crew and dive guides are excellent and were very attentive. We had a good choice of food throughout the week and the birthday cake was appreciated. The cabins are basic and feel dated however, they are functional with ensuite bathroom facilities. When we arrived we had a very thorough safety briefing which is reassuring and an evacuation plan was practiced in the event of an emergency. Emperor gave us free Egyptian data sims for use on board which was a nice touch. The support staff in the office were very prompt at responding to emails and communication was excellent. I have dived with Emperor previously and would recommend the company without hesitation.

Wrecks like the thistlegorm have absolutely enriched the holiday. The crew was super nice, as were the guides. From time to time I saw small improvements and noted them directly (zodiacs that drove directly over our heads and turned, guides that communicated too little or not at all)

Wonderful Red Sea trip with new friends
I loved the beautiful soft and hard corals. I would say this coral might even be superior to The Great Barrier Reef. Lots of schools of fish: triggerfish, banner fish, butterfly fish, bat fish, tuna, snapper, etc. It was amazing seeing a school of yellow snapper that seemed to go on for miles!! Huge napoleon! Schools of dolphins who "performed" for us and looked very happy! Beautiful Gorgonian fans. The multiple nationalities we had as passengers made it so fun! The boat crew were great. The diving allowed for independence and guided dives, whichever you were comfortable with.
