Tour Itinerary
Expand All +-
Your comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle will pick you up from your Sharm El Sheikh hotel and transfer you to the marina. Here, you will be warmly welcomed by our boat crew and fitted with high-quality, sanitized snorkeling equipment before stepping aboard our premium yacht.
Find your perfect spot on the sun deck or relax in the shaded lounge. Enjoy the refreshing sea breeze as we cruise towards the protected waters of Ras Mohamed National Park. Your guides will provide a comprehensive safety briefing and an overview of the marine life you are about to see.
Jump into the crystal-clear waters of the Red Sea! Guided by our aquatic experts, you will float above magnificent coral reefs. Whether you are an experienced snorkeler or a first-timer, our guides will ensure you feel safe while pointing out hidden stingrays, colorful parrotfish, and intricate coral formations.
As we anchor near the stunning White Island, the contrasting colors of the deep blue sea and the brilliant white sand will take your breath away. Swim to the sandbar, walk barefoot, and capture incredible photographs in what is often called the "Maldives of Egypt."
After an active morning, return to the yacht where the chef has prepared a delicious, freshly grilled BBQ lunch. Enjoy a variety of salads, meats, and vegetarian options served buffet-style, accompanied by unlimited soft drinks.
We will sail to a second, carefully selected snorkeling location to explore a different underwater landscape. Afterward, stretch out and relax on the deck as we begin our smooth cruise back to the marina, arriving by late afternoon for your transfer back to the hotel.

June 7, 2026Our family joined the Premium Snorkeling Boat Trip to Ras Mohamed & The White Island and everyone, kids included, stayed interested the whole time. Lunch was generous, freshly prepared, and they handled our dietary requests without any fuss. Timings were planned so that we reached the main sites before the crowds arrived. Easily one of the best days of our holiday.

May 26, 2026Cestovala jsem sama na tomto výletu a ani na chvíli jsem se necítila nepatřičně. Za tuto cenu je to skvělá hodnota. Náš průvodce mluvil výborně anglicky a historii vysvětloval srozumitelně. Děkujeme celému týmu za péči.

May 3, 2026J'ai fait cette excursion avec ma femme et nous sommes tous les deux ravis de ce choix. Le déjeuner était copieux, préparé sur le moment, et nos demandes ont été prises en compte sans problème. La prise en charge s'est faite à l'heure pile et le chauffeur était prudent et posé. Vivement recommandé, surtout si vous avez peu de temps en Égypte.

April 18, 2026Comparámos várias agências antes de escolher esta excursão e não nos arrependemos. A recolha foi pontual e o motorista conduziu com calma e segurança. O nosso guia falava um inglês excelente e explicava a história sem nos sobrecarregar. Muito recomendado, sobretudo se tiver poucos dias no Egito.

March 25, 2026Abbiamo confrontato diverse agenzie prima di scegliere questa escursione e non ce ne pentiamo. Gli orari erano pensati per arrivare ai siti prima dei gruppi. Tutto lo staff è stato caloroso e attento, senza alcuna insistenza commerciale. Lo prenoterei di nuovo senza pensarci.

February 9, 2026Viajei sozinha nesta excursão e nunca me senti deslocada. Pelo que pagámos, a relação qualidade-preço é excelente. O veículo estava limpo, com ar condicionado e confortável mesmo nos trajetos longos. Bem organizado de princípio a fim.

February 2, 2026Ik deed deze excursie alleen en voelde me nergens misplaatst. Het landschap en de tempels zijn nog indrukwekkender dan op de foto's. We werden precies op tijd opgehaald en de chauffeur reed rustig en veilig. Een van de mooiste dagen van onze vakantie.

January 21, 2026I did the Premium Snorkeling Boat Trip to Ras Mohamed & The White Island with my wife and we are both really glad we picked this one. Our guide spoke excellent English and explained the history without overloading us. The sites themselves were even more impressive than the photos suggest. I would book it again without hesitating.

December 20, 2025Viajé sola en esta excursión y en ningún momento me sentí fuera de lugar. El vehículo estaba limpio, con aire acondicionado y cómodo incluso en los tramos largos. Nuestro guía hablaba un inglés excelente y explicaba la historia sin abrumarnos. Si lo estás dudando, resérvalo.
Camille Lacombe
December 4, 2025Cette excursion était simple à réserver et encore mieux sur place que dans la description. Notre guide parlait un très bon anglais et expliquait l'histoire sans nous noyer de détails. Pour ce prix, le rapport qualité-prix est excellent. Bien organisé du début à la fin.

November 10, 2025Abbiamo prenotato questa escursione ed è stato il momento migliore del nostro viaggio in Egitto. Il mezzo era pulito, climatizzato e comodo anche nei tratti più lunghi. Il ritiro è stato puntualissimo e l'autista era prudente e tranquillo nel traffico. Una delle giornate più belle della vacanza.

October 8, 2025Questa escursione è stata facile da prenotare e dal vivo è ancora meglio della descrizione. La nostra guida parlava un inglese ottimo e spiegava la storia senza appesantire. Tutto lo staff è stato caloroso e attento, senza alcuna insistenza commerciale. Consigliatissimo, soprattutto se avete pochi giorni in Egitto.

October 6, 2025We hebben meerdere aanbieders vergeleken voordat we deze excursie kozen, en daar hebben we geen spijt van. Onze gids sprak uitstekend Engels en legde de geschiedenis helder uit. De lunch was ruim, vers bereid en met onze wensen werd zonder problemen rekening gehouden. Een van de mooiste dagen van onze vakantie.
