I would rechoose another 100 times book tour egypt!!! - I have been 3 times to Sharm and all three times I relied on egypt book tours for excursions, they never let me down. I have always been pleasantly surprised by the perfect organization in every detail. On each chosen excursion there will be a guide who will speak perfectly in Italian and will be able to answer any of your doubts or questions.

A perfect day out. - This was an amazing trip. The boat was perfect. The snorkelling was out of this world, with the instructors making you feel at ease throughout. We visited two amazing reefs and then went to the beautiful White Island. The food on the boat was delicious with soft drinks available throughout the day We booked through Book Tour Egypt who wereoutstanding and thorough with all the trips we booked. I would recommend this boat trip and I would recommend Book Toyr Egypt.

Solid Say Out - Solid day out on the water. Start with the good things: The men on the boats were very friendly and funny, it was a pleasure to spend the day with them. The boat itself was nice, a smooth sail, spacious, with enough sun/shade spots. The spots we stopped at were very nice, very pretty. The same can be said for the white island. Only negatives were that our driver was late for pick up by about 30mins; and even when he arrived it was not clear at all if he was even for us. In future, the company sign on the dashboard would be very useful. The booking originally said 8am to 4pm but we retuned to our hotel just after 6pm so be prepared in case of this. Thirdly, was the lunch provided, very limited which you could say is a “me” problem, but I’d say they would benefit from a few more internationally friendly choices.

Worth doing - Beautiful experience well Worth doing. Very crowded at the white beach which is a big down fall. Scuba and snorkelling is amazing Transport to and from hotel was stressful, air con not working and driver on way back was reckless.

BOF - 1st spot OK , 2nd spot : null: no fish, all boats (EN approx 50 ) leave EN all at the same time, are in the same place at the same time, are on the white island at the same time ( I counted 35 boats moored next to each other at time t , or 700 people at the same time on the white island ). And of course, when you tell the organizers that there are no fish to see at the second spot, they tell you, "so many fishes to see"! They are of incredible bad faith, never question themselves, do not seek to stand out, it is really poor quality mass tourism or the tourist is the cash cow. My advice: all excursions are the same, so take the cheapest!!!! I think it is better to pay more and have better quality private excursions DE where you keep your hands on where you want to go and what you want to see.
