Great to do absolutely - Great Mood, top staff, help for my dad who's in a wheelchair. The top c is also when we were offered to dress up as a pharaoh and take pictures. Snorkeling on top we saw 2 turtles and a dugong (cow of the seas) really beautiful. Besides the meal was good also brief an experience to do and we will not hesitate to do it again when we return to Egypt.

Great snorkeling experience. - Great cruise. We were lucky to see all kinds of fish and animals from dolphins, sharks, sea devil turtles and many, many kinds of sea fish. They treated us with dinner on board and it was very good. People are great and very kind. Totally recommend 👍

Unforgettable experience!! - The Nefertari cruise accompanied by tour guide Achmed was a unique experience! The opportunity to experience the turtles, manatees and fish up close was indescribably beautiful! We can only recommend! (P.S. even a VIP ride in the dinghy to the turtle sites was included)

Nefertari Snorkelling trip review. Overall good but could be better. - Nefertari Snorkelling trip review. The trip was fine. People were really great, probably the best part for me. The underwater windows in the lower deck is definitely good for kids to see things if they are not comfortable swimming yet. Would of loved to see a little more but that’s just luck I think. Snorkelling part was really good, you get a guide (in a party of 4-7 where they drag you along the reef and if you have a go pro (like I did) they will get some good deeper dive footage for you. Drink and food service: a little slow on the drinks and the food orientation was a little weird (chicken or fish but not sure what fish and what chicken you are getting. For chicken you don’t seem to get a started and then 2 chicken breasts with pasta (not sure why pasta is part of the dish), then fish you get soup and then the fish dish) 85€ for the trip and I have to say I have had better trips with more locations and even better snorkelling for a lot less. Overall this is a good trip. You have a stop off at a town which is really great but there is a lot waiting around inbetween actions and entertainment. Recommended for family with kids if you have the cash for it 🫡

Pretty bad experience, I guess maybe for some people its ok - Terrible experience. The boat itself is quite nice. But you get drinks in plastic cups, and only water cola and sprite are free, anything else is very expensive. And they dont even have any alcohol, even paid alcohol. Then the glass boat part they lead you down, and its not bad. Except they go super close to places where they definitely disturb the wildlife, and probably hit reef every once in a while. The snorkeling is with a life vest on, mandatory. And only in guided groups. That is a total deal breaker for me. And those groups are far so you cannot finish in the middle. Then the food is not that good. It all takes waaaay too long, and then you are also stuck in Port Ghalib for another hour waiting for transport back. And also, music on board on the way back was way too loud, and absolutely terrible audio quality. I have gotten better audio quality from 30 year old cars that barely run. Would not go again, and would not recommend.
