Unforgettable day with a lot of fun and happiness - We had an amazing day full of happiness, Watching the sunrise on ATVs in the middle of the mountains and the sea is just an unreal experience. Then a day full of happiness awaited us with snorkeling, colorful fish, corals, clear water. I recommend everyone to go on this trip.

Cool and dynamic tour! - For the adventurous people out there who want to start the day at sunrise with a crazy quad bike ride and end it on an amazing island, this is the right tour. You take off at 4 am on a quad bike ride at sunrise which is amazing, then you go to marina where you are taken by a boat to Giftun island and enjoy the blue waters and white sands. Also you have lunch included on the boat and some crazy guides on the boat who will make an amazing atmosphere there. You get two stops for snorkeling as well so all in all this is a day well spent.

Awesome and Excellent Value for Money - This is my third time to Hurghada so I'm always looking for new trips to do. I came across this one via Get Your Guide, but it's organised by Egyptra. The price you cannot argue with. I paid £30 for Sunrise Quad Biking along the Sea & Mountains followed by The Giftun Island Snorkeling trip. The whole day, from being picked up at 3.45am to being dropped off a bit after 17:00 ran like clockwork. Always good, as I've had lateness and no shows for several trips before-not with this company. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The Quad Biking was absolutely awesome. I've done the Bedouin one before and really liked it, but as I've done 3 different versions of that now, I fancied something different. This was in Makidi Bay and definitely not for first time Quad Bikers. I'm no expert, but on holiday I usually book a Quad Biking trip, so I'd say I'm experienced and boy did I need it. You set off in the dark at a good pace, then as you hit the sand you're off. I just remember following the red light of the quad in front at great speed, not quite able to see fully, but using the back light to follow. It's absolutely exhilarating and you're up and down dunes... One dune was absolutely hugh.... Scarily Brilliant...just letting go and hoping for the best. After I'd say at least 30 minutes, could had been much longer... I'd totally lost track of anything but controlling the quad.... we arrived by the sea as it was becoming lighter. We stopped here for say 15/20 minutes, and refreshingly the 2 guys used our phones to take loads of pics.... Hurghada is terrible for every trip being about selling you photos.... It costs a small fortune if you do several trips and can make a really good value day out twice the price. We went further along the beach and came across a rocky area where we watched the sunrise. It was fantastic. We even did a bit of rock climbing 😬. Loads of pictures were taken by the guides again. The ride back was easier as you could see better, but just as good, hitting more dunes, over and on the side aswell. It was just brilliant. Didn't want it to be over, but I'd say you did a good 90 minutes on the quads. After, we swapped buses, to pick up other tourists for the Giftun Island Snorkeling trip. This went very smoothly apart from one no show, where we waited around for 30 minutes... I say, especially as this is pre paid for, give late tourists 10 minutes grace, if there not there, leave them. Not the companies fault. The boat trip was really good and the weather was perfect for it, 25 degrees, and no wind-apart from the sea breeze was the absolute perfect weather for it. The boat trip was good, but I am used to snorkeling morealess on my own or jumping from a boat and heading off snorkeling in my own area. For the snorkeling, literally 25-30 people were swimming in a pack, making for a poor snorkel and not so enjoyable. This is what the trip is and there was the safety to consider with different types of swimmers, so no complaints. I'll just not do this again as it's not how I like to snorkel. Any fish buzzed off well before I got there as loads of people had already disturbed them. Not their fault-they were doing exactly what I was doing-just way too many people for me. The next snorkeling stop was shortly after-too shortly after-and I didn't join in with this one along with half the boat. Looking back, I wished I'd skipped the first snorkel and just went on the second one-but much like everyone else, you're dying to get in the water. Giftun Island was really nice. We had a nice spot and it wasn't too crowded. A bit of snorkeling was enjoyed, but nothing too spectacular-I think I've done that much snorkeling now that my expectations can be a bit high-though I did think I'd see more than several fishes in this area. It was still a lovely hour spent there. The lunch was pretty good to be honest, the soft drinks were there as and when you wanted them The boat guys were a good bunch, some better than others, but really good in general. There is the usual photograph guy, which I didn't participate in-you can tell those who haven't been to Hurghada before. Each to their own though. The one thing that really got my back up was that before the first snorkel I was offered a wet suit-I'd showed zero interest in it and was very happy to swim in just my swim wear. Well, at the end of the trip, something was being said that I didn't quite understand, so just left them to it, I was relaxing. This this young guy-more of a child-had 5 euros in his hand waving it at me, asking me for 5 euros for the hiring of the wetsuit. I told him not a chance. He said a family had paid for theirs. I said more fool them. It got a bit heated and I swore directly at them saying that they would be getting XXXX all and if they're that bothered take it from the tip I just gave them. I'm glad I stood my ground, though I know a lot of people would had been intimidated by them. That's the thing with Egyptians, they try to squeeze every last penny out of you-don't let them. Be generous, but don't let them take the pxss, cause they will try. This wasn't enough to ruin my day, and overall I had a cracking trip. The transfer back, once again ran like clock work and I was back at the hotel for 5. I would definitely use Get Your Guide and Egyptra again.

Avoid unless you want to lose a day of your holiday. - Worst company we dealt with on holiday. They didnt turn up to pick us up for our trip, no messages, no email, no calls. After 30 minutes of ringing someone finally responded to tell us the quad bikes were cancelled due to the weather, but we could still go on the boat trip! We can accept that weather has an impact on things from time to time but as we watched another group of quad bikers prepare and depart for their trip, it felt as if they had made a mess of the booking process and not bothered to tell us. They did admit that someone should have contacted us, but hadn't. There are other companies selling this same trip. It might be a suggestion to look for a more reliable company rather than wasting a day of your holidays and getting up at 0300.
