10/10 would highly recommend! Will be back :)
I honestly can’t even put into words how good this trip was with Ghazala Explorer. Everything from the food to the boat to the crew to the dive guides was all perfect! The only slight improvement I would recommend is that the beds could be slightly softer. I want to say a huge thank you to the crew for making our trip so incredible! It’s rare to find a trip with so few faults.

Great Red Sea adventure
Great Red Sea diving with an awesome liveaboard and its crew! Everything was well organized with nothing to complain about. The crew was very helpful at all times. Food was always delicious with plenty of variety. A special shout-out to the dive guides, very knowledgeable of the sites/currents/conditions and adjusting as needed based on the conditions at the current moment.

Excellent!!!
This was such a comfortable boat to be on for the week. The crew did everything to make our time in and out of the water perfect. The dives were fantastic with visibility that went on for days. A particular highlight was during a reef dive when a pod of 8 dolphins came by and played with us for several minutes then left, then returned to play some more. All of the food was terrific and and the desserts were wonderful. (having a pastry chef as part of the crew took it to the next level) Free wifi and free nitrox just added to the already great value. Highly recommended.

Excellent livaboard
All the dives sites were fantastic, the crew were amazing and the food was delicious. The cabin was very comfortable. Overall, an amazing week diving in the red sea. Highlights during diving were the hammerheads, silky sharks and manta rays. Some of the other divers saw oceanic white tips. The crew went above and beyond to make this trip amazing. Thank you to Mousa, Moustafa, Reda, Abou El Hassan, Ashraf, Sambo , Eid, Ibrahim, Hassan, Omda (ya basha!), Mohamed, Islam, Mahdy and anyone else I have missed.

Truly great Red Sea dive trip.
It's a very comfortable boat: large enough to have room to move around and be stable on the water, but small enough so divers can get to know one another. Cabins had plenty of room and storage space. New sites every day. Before each dive the briefings by a dive guide, with audiovisual assist, were complete and understandable. The deck staff both before and after the dives were everywhere assisting with gear and helping in any way they could. Always a snack and a drink waiting when we came up. My wife and I were encouraged to get nitrox certified and we did; looking at the nitrox log I saw that everyone else on the boat, now including us, were using nitrox blend. The reefs weren't the best I've seen, having dived in Belize and Palau and Roatan, among others, but they were always good and often amazing. The emphasis was on spotting pelagics and we did see some; I'm more of a reef and small critter person and could have used more of that. Since it was my first time there, I stuck with a guided group for almost all my dives and this generally went well; the guides were all pros and kept a good eye on us. Some interesting caves on some of the dives which gave nice variety. We took a RIB excursion to see dolphins up close but did not see any in the one place where we could actually get in the water with them, but the snorkeling was fun. Loved the night dives. Full days every day, up at 6 and in the water not long after, with dinner usually around 9 after the night dive, if there was one. Great food, a mix of Western and Egyptian that was tasty and varied, and there was plenty of it. They seemed proud of it and deservedly so.
