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.

Sensational! We will be back!
Thank you to the Ghazala Explorer team for an amazing liveaboard trip — we had an incredible time! Safety: First of all, safety on this boat is absolutely paramount. Safety drills and muster were conducted, and they have a huge first-aid kit in case you’ve forgotten or missed anything yourself. Dive Guides: A highly professional team. They even helped me with a faulty HP hose while we were in the marina. A big shout-out to Moustafa, Haithem and Hendy — we loved diving and socialising with you all! Every day, the guides ensured that everything was okay with your cabin, gear, food, etc. The dive briefs were very interesting and gave you the confidence to do unguided dives if you chose to. Another note: the dive courses are extremely reasonably priced if you want to level up your qualifications. Crew: So helpful! They do everything for you — helping you in and out of your gear, hanging your gear and keeping the boat spotless. The captain also took us out on snorkelling excursions, which was fantastic. And the interior crew — wow! Your cabin was spotless after every dive! The food was fantastic, and the chefs were wonderful. They also celebrate every occasion on the boat, which made it feel really special. The Boat: Every detail has been considered. There are so many charging areas — a dedicated one for batteries, another for cameras, and USB ports in the saloon. The dive deck is extremely well organised and has separate wash bins for your gear. They even put a wash solution in the wetsuit wash bin so that it smells nice! Every cabin has its own hanging area for towels on the dive deck, and the cabins have so much storage. If you’re sharing a cabin, you have equal amounts of storage in both the bathroom and cabin — I was genuinely impressed! Even the towels are labelled! They provide a dressing gown, a diving towel and bathroom towels. Diving: Stunning! I loved every single dive. Our highlights were the Thistlegorm and Giannis D, as well as our incredible encounter with dolphins while diving — followed by having the dolphins in our own cove for another hour of snorkelling! We also loved the night dives. There were so many creatures we hadn’t seen before. We will be back! And next time, it will be on board an Ocean Tribe boat. Many of the guests on our boat had been on the Explorer multiple times, and after our experience, we can absolutely see why! Thank you again to the entire Ghazala Explorer team for an unforgettable trip.

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.

10/10, would book again
This was my first liveaboard and it far and away exceeded my expectations. The staff was incredible - they were so attentive I felt like a helpless baby. I didn't put my own fins on all week and every time I turned around someone was there to help me into/out of my wetsuit. The guides were awesome and the rest of the crew was amazing, especially the chefs - the food was delicious. The boat and rooms were very spacious and it had everything you could want or need for a week on board. I would 100% recommend this liveaboard and would book the Ghazala Explorer if I returned to the Red Sea (there were several people on the boat who were repeat customers).
