Awesome experience! - This activity is totally worth it if you're in Marsa Alam. It might be a long trip from the hotel but still well organized.

Great Experience - Really helpful and kind crew. We swam with Dolphins for an hour. Although they were a lot of other people it did not feel super crowded. I also liked that we did not chase the dolphins but let them come to us. We swam with the dolphns for about an hour. The food on board was great too! 10/10 would do again.

Dream come true 🐬🪸 - This was my second trip with the Marsa Waves trip and it was an absolutely incredible experience. Swimming with dolphins 🐬 in the dolphin reef was a dream come true and watching the coral reefs while snorkelling was breathtaking. 🛥️The boat itself was also amazing and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure in the Red Sea. The memories I made on Marsa Waves & Travel Buddies بالعربي will stay with me forever. Special Thanks to Ahmed Aiesh 😍

So nice to swim with so many dolphins - So nice to swim with so many dolphins, the persons there are also nice now it's still a little too cold, better to rent the diving warm clothes on boat or prepare it before when you have the chance to select to go to dolphin again or coral instead for the second snorkeling, do choose dolphin if you would like to have underwater photo, better to tell the photographer at first

A long day, beware road trip vehicle to get to the port. - An experience for sure, but a very long day so will not suit all. We had a very early pickup but didn’t quite appreciate the very long road trip to get to the boat. I think the road trip would have been better if the transport had been in a better quality of mini bus. The roads are appalling in places, made worse by the lack of shock absorbers, so beware. The actual boat trip and dolphin experience was as good as we imagined it, but overall we would not recommend due to the 6 hour road trip we had to endure.

Really special experiance 🐬 - I really wanna thank the guide Mr. Syed. He is very professional and helpful. He was the only one who taking care of all of us specially who cannot swim well. He was very concerned that everyone was happy and well. It was really special experiance actually because of him ♥️🐬 NB: Just need to pay more attention to food. The guides should be more cooperative. There was a shortage of tools.

please do not support this - I am terribly disappointed that I chose this trip. We were told that the presence of dolphins would be a matter of chance. I didn't expect them to be there and just saw it as a resort excursion. There were dolphins on the spot, which would have been great if they weren't being chased by several boats, making them swim in circles to satisfy paying tourists. I don't understand how everyone is so short-sighted and didn't see that. My partner was on a boat because he can't swim, and he told me the whole story of how people intentionally approached the dolphins on boats to change their direction. A bunch of boats came to see the pod. I am terribly disappointed that I was part of this. For those who are unselfish and care about nature, please don't come here and support this.
