Amazing diving, amazing crew, amazing boat, amazing dove guide!
We saw an eagle shark (my first ever!), so much beautiful coral and fish. The crew were honestly amazing, assisting with gear prep before dives, helping you out the water and packing gear away post dive. The rooms were well organised, the food was amazing and plentiful! Highly recommended, I will be back!

It was just amazing. The dive sites are great. There were not many people. We had a magic encounter with dolphins. The crew was super nice. I had the upper cabin, which was great. It was very clean. The food was delicious. Only the first night was a bit random, because we stayed in the port.

Fantastic and exciting
It was our first experience of Lievebord and we were very satisfied with it. Everything perfect and well organized. Very prepared guides ready to help and give information. Flexibility of all staff. Full day program. The staff of the agency was also punctual and impeccable. Comfort compared to one day trips. We will be back as soon as possible.

The boat crew made it for us!
The crew were something special... from the dive guides to the yound lads helping you gear up. Every single one went above and beyond! I have worked on liveaboards before so i know how much work goes on behind the scenes. Our boat was split into two dive groups according to our experience and alaa got this spot on. Both his and peters briefings were some of the best ive heard, ensuring everyone knew what was going on at all times. 10 out of 10!

Exeptional all round mini safari, highly recommended
This mini safari covered so much of what we wanted. 11 dives in total, 4 dives including a night dive on day 1 and 2, final day 3 dives. The 4 dives (including a night dive) on Thistlegorm was our highlight, June seemed very quite and we were lucky to have the wreck to ourselves. Dunraven, Ros Mohamed, sharks and Yolanda Reef were the best, full of marine life. Couldn't fault any area of this trip, the boat, staff, accommodation, dive guides and dive sites were 5*. Highly recommended

Dive Guides were very experienced and gave great detailed briefings. The boat was kept exceptionally clean, all wet areas were dried down after each dive. Loved that the boat only held maximum of 12 divers, made the trip more personal.

Excellent experience
I booked as a solo traveler with my own lower deck cabin. The cabins are well taken care of, cleaned after each dive, made out of solid wood, with small ensuite bathrooms, including a warm shower, basin and WC, a few cabinets to store your clothes and belongings, suit cases that you do not need will be stored by the crew in a separate area of the boat to maximize the space left in your cabin. The airco worked well (very pleasant when it is 34 Celsius outside), though a bit loud. The first night you spend at the harbor, allowing you to settle in, get acquainted with the boat, crew, dive gear and fellow guests. Bring some ear plus as there will be more boats next to you and some of them will have loud generators and even some music till late. The meals, drinks and water provided is great - catering for dietary requirements. You can tell the cook is taking proud in his profession and loves to see the guest happy and enjoying his meals. We had 10 guests and 9 crew, which resulted in excellent service to the guests. The scuba diving is very safe and professional. you can tell the instructors have many many years of Red Sea experience. There are no strict requirements for the number of logged dives to join this trip but as the Red Sea requires often drift diving, surface currents and entry/exit from a Zodiac, so it is important that you master buoyancy and feel confident to apply scuba practices even in challenging conditions. You can choose if you want to join each dive or not, however everything is inspiring and supporting you to indeed do 11 dives in total. Transfers to/from airport/hotel were well arranged and communicated. And last but not least, great company and interaction with guests from Europe and US. A few tips. As you are doing 4-3 dives every day take care of hydration, 3 liters of water per day is the minimum. For me completing it with electrolyte tablets after each dive helped a lot to recover. Furthermore there are no ferries or other transportation options by water to/from Hurghada/Sharm-El-Seikh, making Sinai airports, such as Hurghada the only convenient arrival/departure points. Cairo is a 5-6 hours bus ride away.

Such an incredible Liveaboard
Peter was so professional and simply a lovely person to be around. I went on this boat in Nov 2022, since then it’s had a full repaint, it looks like new! I went on two other boats last year in Egypt, Amelie & Sunshine, look no further this is the best in so many ways, professional briefings before each dive, the sites are amazing, crew are all so welcoming, beds are spacious and comfy, fairly priced and the food is so good, the food beats any hotel in Sharm! This is by far the best…..!
