Most of participants were german people who testify in general a nice mood. We have followed first week BDE route and second week mainly straight of North Tiran. Dahad was particulary a diving area marvelous for which I’ve dove for the first time. Dive masters were very helpful by giving us some exhaustive briefings. To sum up, it was a fantastic diving cruise into Red Sea.

Very, very great
Despite sometimes very windy weather with a lot of swell, the guides always made the best of it and looked for dive spots that were safe to dive despite the weather.Support at the airport and pickup service perfect, as in itself the whole trip was carried out very professionally.

Book with Golden Dolphin! The safest and most fun way to see almost everything in the Red Sea!
I don't even know where to begin. From the beginning to the end I had enjoyable moments with the people on the boat and the crew. They were kind and helpful and fun. Their penchant for safety was clear and so were the dive briefings. I loved having nitrox and wifi when available. We saw so much life under the water! It was warm and visibility was fantastic! We saw hammerheads, octopus, manta rays, eagle rays, so many moray eels, hawkfish, puffers, baby clownfish!, red anemones, nudibranchs and so much more. It was some of the best diving I've ever experienced. They even let us jump in the water after our dive to swim with dolphins!! How cool is that? So wonderful. The cabin was clean and comfortable with A/C, which was so nice. The food was also absolutely scrumptious, props to the chef and his assistant. The captain also worked hard bringing us from place to place in such a timely manner. Highly, highly recommend going with Golden Dolphin and I loved being on Golden Dolphin 1 as it is a bit smaller, but that's a personal preference.

- The sheer amount of life in the water - so the locations of the dives were incredible. The staff was so fun and friendly, really made the trip that much more exciting. I felt really safe on the boat and in the water with the guides, which means my fun is maximized..

Great service, great dives
It is a boat with 20guests capacity. Not too many people which was nice. Crew and service were excellent. Dive guides both relaxed, experienced and relaxed.I booked spontaneously shortly before the safari and was more than satisfied.I can recommend the golden dolphin 1 without reservation. Of course also the southern tour, everything was great exactly to my taste

Amazing service from the entire crew.
I could not ask for any better service from everyone in the staff. The guys who help you get ready, the ones driving the zodiacs, and those who cleaned the cabins and public spaces were all very personable and super helpful. Our dive guide was amazing. The chef even made me a birthday cake. Everyone was wonderful.

Amazing Trip!
Our experience on the Golden Dolphin was outstanding, from start to finish. The organisation of the team is excellent which made the transfer from the airport efficient and easy, the staff were really friendly and happy to help out with anything you need. The food was first class! Three large meals a day with different choices of food, fish, meat, salad and veg. The team also provided snacks and fresh fruit in-between meals so you will not go hungry on this boat. The dive guides were very helpful in and out of the water and good fun too. They chose a really good route which maxed out the best diving each day. On the boat the cabins, lounge and sun decks were kept clean and tidy. This is a fantastic boat with a team that really cares so would recommend to anyone looking to dive the red sea - we will be back.
