Discovery I 리브어보드, 이집트

Friendly, fun, fantastic

Getting to the remote locations was exceptional and a great way to experience the Red Sea. The whole crew was fun and friendly, while still maintaining a professional and safe demeanor. Our dive guides were AMAZING! Knowledgeable with a great eye for spotting critters. They also split our group into two with similar diving experiences, so everyone felt comfortable and with the right level of guidance.

The dive sites were stunningly beautiful. The crew and guides were exceptional. The group of divers was diverse and fun.

Good value for money, great food

We were moved to the Amelia's sister boat, Samira, though from what I can tell the crew and the boats are nearly identical. The crew is very friendly and the boat is clean, if a bit sparse. For this price point the dive safari met my expectations, with safe diving and a friendly crew. The food exceeded expectations; mostly western fare but produced with care and enough variety throughout the week. The dive deck was a bit cramped with a full boat and there are no showers for rinsing off after diving. Only real complaint was that our dive group (there were two divemasters and guests were roughly divided between them based on experience), including a few newer divers, had our dives managed a bit too closely by the dive staff for my liking. I understand being concerned with safety but having my air checked five times a dive and being encouraged to stay unnecessarily close with the rest of the group made some dives feel rushed or forced. Overall good value for money though, and a friendly boat crew.

Food, value, friendliness

Great value for money - would go again

The itinerary was great, featuring some really nice spots. The food was excellent, and most of the boat crew were outstanding—really helpful guys with a friendly attitude. The cabins were decent, but even with the AC on, it was still 30 degrees. It was manageable enough to get some sleep, though. The linen could use an upgrade as it felt a bit worn and coarse. I would consider bringing my own next trip. Security was a focus, and I always felt safe. They have oxygen on board, for example. However, other information could have been better communicated. For instance, we were out of cell phone coverage for a few days. We were told it would be three days without coverage, but I found out later they knew pretty much exactly when we would lose and regain coverage. It would have been nice to have known these details in advance so they could be shared with loved ones back home. Regarding diving, we did a lot of dives looking for pelagics, but I was also told it was not the best season for it, and we didn't see much. I think an option to explore reefs instead could have been nice, perhaps dividing the group into two. All in all, it is great value for money, but some small improvements could make the experience even better.

Food. Dive sites. Boat crew.

Nice group of divers, where are the fish

Overall experience was tarnished by the fact we did not see any big stuff, and the amount of boats at some dive sites. At Ephilstine we counted 61 other divers in the water, boats need to talk to each other to prevent bubble mania. Water very warm 30 degrees at 30mtres , hence no sharks but also no large shoals etc, very worrying. Food was fine and plentiful, Ruby the meal organiser was excellent. Khalid and Mohammed we good as guides, Cabins and beds on the small side. Some strange practices on out last dive they were stripping the tank off my back before I had even got off the ladder, very annoying caused my first stage to bang on the deck. We were told how much to give as tips?? and an envelope was left in out rooms with our names and room number on, they then held a ceremony to hand over the envelopes. Tips should be voluntary and not in named envelopes this was a first for me. One concerning aspect of the boat is that what they called life vests/ jackets are actually buoyancy aids, not life jackets. These are designed to help keep you afloat by treading water, where as a life jacket will keep you afloat and put you on your back.
