Great trip with lots of little touches from the crew
+ Beautiful modern ship+ great crew: We always had the feeling that all employees wanted to give us a great holiday. From driver to crew, dive guides and captain. + Dive guides let experienced divers dive alone if possible and desired, so that everyone could experience the dive they wanted

Service and small details to give the guests a nice holiday (warm towels after the dive, chocolate on the bed, driver stopped for cold water and ice cream, support by mail, honoring the "Iron Divers"). Enough space in the cabin, common areas and on the platform. Courteous crew.

Best Red Sea Experience
The trip was outstanding, the chef, the captain, the boat guys, the guides,... i can't stress enough how professional they were. Everyone from the crew gave 150% to make our stay better. I was with this boat in October, and then decided it meets a standard to take my 14 year old kid (an experienced diver with 100+ dives, but still a kid) to this trip. starting from the cabins, spotless, squeeky clean, one day there was a problem with the flush, but it was handled in 7 minutes, it happens, we are on a boat. My kid was making his bed, and the crew remade it to aggressor standards. 2. The lounge areas...always stacked with drinks, coffee, water, ice, Mahmoud and Youseff were there almost too much to help us out and i think that they should work a bit less, but it seemed that they enjoyed spending time with us, and did not let us do anything ourselves, i hope they get a proper reward for that. 3. the decks...spotless, it was a pure enjoyment to use any of the decks, clean, comfy, close to the cabins... perfection4. Captain... the BEST captain i have ever sailed with, so fun, loving and willing to have fun with us, even though he had some tough sailing to do, he made it fun for us. music, dance, he was doing his job professionally and perfectly good, but made us feel at home.5. Boat crew - always helpful, there for us, and smiling, willing to help us out even though we just went out enjoying ourselves. We felt like millionaires with them. 6. cleanliness of the boat - there was not a part of the boat that was not as clean as it can be, cleaner than at homeThe restaurant - The Chef (and the pastry Chef as well) is the Kindest person on earth, the food was magnificent, i'm not a sweets guy, but my son said it was awesome. Everything was well prepared, cooked properly, served properly, again Mahmoud and Yousef were too kind during the meals, I think much too kind for some people, it was a pleasure and a privilege to share our meals with them. 7. The boat - the dive deck was perfect, it would in my opinion be good to make the buddy teams beforehand as it can eliminate crowding on the deck, but even if that happens, there will always be people from group 3 getting ready with group 1, that is just bad people and cant be controlled. 8- the guides - last but not least....your guides. They did everything to make our diving experience the most memorable one. They did everything they could to make this a trip of a lifetime. Their social skills, interacting with people, and finding the best dive plan for the masses was off the charts. Of course someone may complain, but that is because they are spoiled. The team did everything in their power to bring the red sea to us. Their smiles, experience and knowledge made us feel safe, made us enjoy, and come back with a smile. and hopefully come back to the aggressor once again, if you do something with the prices...that is not up to the guides, there should be a discount for returning customers. Now for the improvement points : There should be a shark briefing on every trip, they can be anywhere from Rocky, Zabargad, Habili Ali, Small Gota,;.... there should be a in depth briefing of shark behaviour, not because of me, because of people who are here for the first time. This should not be a "come one come all trip", i think that there should be a minimum of logged dives for this trip, the guides and the crew did their best to accommodate everyone, but i had a friend with just 15 dives before the trip and this was not a trip for her. So maybe it's better to make it a 40 dives minimum trip due to safely, currents, conditions, waves, aquatic life,.... All in all, this was an unforgettable trip, surrounded by great crew, guides, staff, people, with a couple of people that are just spoiled, but unfortunately we could not make them walk the plank for 2 reasons. 1. company policy :)2. there was no plank I hope to be back with aggressor ASAP and have this experience all over again.

Perfect service and comfort !
Very nice liveaboard. You really cover long distances, the Elba Reef is already at Sudan. However, we were lucky with the weather and the waves, so the way back was okay. All the more regrettable that we only dived for one day on the Elba reef!! We spent the last two days of diving in the area of Hamata. Snorkeling with dolphins was really awesome, but that could have been a good connection for the last day.All in all, a wonderful safari.

Amazing week with great diving itinerary
We had a great time on the Aggressor V. The crew was super friendly and helpful, they made our week great! The reefs in the deep south are full of life. The guides leave room for input and wishes from the guests which makes for a great, personal experience. Although depending on personal preference, we found the beds/mattresses to be too hard for us. Food (and deserts!!) were very good. We had a great week and we will for sure be back with Aggressor. Thank you again to the crew and guides for making this week!

Beautiful boat, excellent and friendly crew staff who were very professional. The dives were mostly good as usual for Aggressor and cruise director was very engaged. I wish for more engagement from the dive guides, we were indirectly encouraged to dive without guides most of the times. I also missed hot water in our cabin shower, important for December.

The crew are WORTH THEIR WEIGHT IN GOLD!!!
The service by the crew on the boat by far made the trip amazing, they all deserve a medal! They work incredibly hard; Shawki with his beautiful and kind nature and always always ready to offer help and great conversations I considered him a friend by the end of the week, Salem with his amazing guiding and adapting the dives so I didn't ever get bored he was a joy to spend time with underwater, Zizo always so friendly and easy to chat to which is nice as I travelled alone also a great dive guide and incredibly chill and relaxed underwater, Khalil always giving good and thorough briefings. Mohamed who served us the meals and always had the biggest smile I've ever seen on someone (he was like my little brother by the end of the week!), Mohammed Nasser who was very sweet and cheeky dive deck helper, Mahmoud always so polite and incredibly respectful he made the best drinks for sunset and kept my cabin so clean and tidy despite my messiness! Captain Hussen who let me chill at the bridge and hang out, Hamada the Cpt's assistant possibly the friendliest person I've ever met and I had so many nice chats with. Ahmed on the dive deck always being cheeky and making jokes, I promise one day to say your name right! Mustafa who was very quiet but so friendly and helpful on the dive deck always helping me with my gear. Assam the daytime engineer who filled the tanks and gave me a tour of the engine room was very kind! Huge thank you to Chef Abdo for making me all the vegan dishes and delicious Egyptian breakfast at my request! And Chef Waleed always including me for a dessert everyday even though I know how hard making vegan desserts are! I've definitely missed some people off as I couldn't get everyone's names. Honestly the reason I would return for another Aggressor trip and also return to the Aggressor V would be for the crew, I hope you read this to everyone one of them and tell them they are WORTH THEIR WEIGHT IN GOLD! They are a credit to Aggressor and all deserve a pay rise! Throughout the week they worked tirelessly to ensure that everything went smoothly and the guests didn't have to lift a finger. Having worked on multiple liveaboards myself I was very impressed at how well they all worked together, there was no drama, no fights, they all had respect for each other as well as the guests and even though they worked day and night no task was too large. I wish I could have tipped them more so I write this review as my extra tip in the hopes that it reaches them. I was also very impressed at how spacious the cabins were, beautiful views from the window, large rainfall shower in the bathroom, very happy!

Amazing week - Rocky & Zabargad
We spent two consecutive weeks aboard the Aggressor V. As this was not our first liveaboard experience, I believe I can offer a balanced and objective perspective on the overall experience. First and foremost, I would like to express my gratitude to the dining room crew for their attentiveness and professionalism. My thanks also go to the captain for the skillful management of the vessel, as well as to the seamen and our guides, who contributed to an enjoyable trip overall. A special mention to the chefs, who were outstanding and prepared delicious meals and desserts every day. That said, there are a few areas we feel warrant improvement: Post-Dive Organization: Drinks and towels were occasionally missing after dives, which was particularly inconvenient following night dives or in windy conditions. Briefings: Briefings often started late, as ringing the bell alone was insufficient to gather everyone promptly. Waiting approximately ten minutes to begin was somewhat frustrating. Information on Currents: During briefings, details about currents were not always precise, which is essential for planning safe and enjoyable dives. Group Size: On several occasions, guided groups exceeded eight people, which is especially problematic during night dives when visibility and coordination are more challenging. Final Payment Procedure: The manner in which the final payment was handled felt awkward. We were required to declare and write down the amount of gratuity we intended to give, which came across as rather forceful. On other vessels, tips are provided anonymously, which feels more appropriate. Passport Security: On the first day, passports were left in an area accessible to anyone, which raises security concerns. At the very least, they should have been stored securely overnight. Overall, we had a positive experience, but addressing these points would significantly enhance the professionalism and comfort of future trips.
