Perfect for solo travellers - The tour was extreemly well organized. Even I was travelling solo I felt safe all the time. Tourguide Ahmed was really helpful all the time and was providing instructions to the group on Russian, English and Italian language. Photographer Faisal was taking really good photos for all of us. I had lot of fun and would recommend this tour for solo female travellers

Wonderful trip to Ras Mohammed national park - Thank you for providing memoriable and wonderful experience. Our guide was so professional and nice, and made sure to help everyone with everything. He spoke three languages(English,Italian and Russian). Snorkeling in clear sea water was one of my best experiences so far. Snorkeling equipment can be rented on the way to the park during short stop. This tour gives you a nice look to all the national park’s sights and you get a nice experience for snorkeling with guidance. Snorkeling session was long enough(1hr) and after that you were ready to see everything else on that area. 100% recommended.

Great snorkeling area rest is bit rubbish - Pick up was right on time and 15 seater mini bus picked us up was very clean n nice drive we were picked up 1st However we was asked to wait nect to the main road outside out hotel but the other 3 pick ups we went right into the hotel areas and are waiting for each group to make there way to the bus so it does take an extra 30mins to hour on day Next stop is snorkel hire we paid £4 per item we only needed vests, wet suits and flippers as we have full face snorkels of our own so was £12 each for us 3 was £36 We pick up camera man and snorkel expert and on our way Next stop is a service station The toilets are disgusting and no paper so carry your own if u need it And there is no prices for snacks and drinks and they basically make it up and type an amount on a calculator that is extortionate priced most people just leave the items and walk out Then another 20mins half hour to ras mohammed "gate of god" This is not a natural phenomenon like I mistakenly assumed its just a poured concrete structure made in the late 70s early 80s by some architect looks good on the pics but not what I thought had security man in way and graffiti on it not and metal rebar hanging out top worth the effort! Next stop is snorkeling get w nice area in the tent to change and leave bags but I'd walk over in sliders or sea shoes as really rocky Snorkeling is amazing but can be chaotic I had 11 year old and 13 year old felt safe to swim over it does get deep like 80m at some point but the views of coral are amazing and the water warm especially for early Jan Lot of boats also arrive so does get busy We took big bottles of water to wash off u don't get too wet as use the wet suits but definitely worth quick rinse and dry Head back to tent for bedouin t from local kids n buy jewellery or ornaments we took hotel packed lunch and gave em local kids as they asked for them n said they were very hungry and literally tore into em as we were viewing the jewellery so If possible I'd give em the food I'd had big breakfast that morning so I can wait till back 2 more stops at earthquake site and then magic lake it's freezing I comparison and so salty if u go in wash off after with the big water bottle u take as there is no showers ! At all and then u dry n back on bus for the return trip to all the hotels in the same order so we were on the bus longest lot of loops round and driver got lost Camera man nice lots of cheesy pics though and wanted £45 its very expensive for pics i already had on phone and I couldn't be bothered to haggle to a reasonable price so just said no I don't think he earned anything that day from our group as no-one else brought em either so bit of a waste of his and our time on the day I thought as u feel pulled between camera man and tour guide info I wouldn't book this trip again just get a taxi to ras mohammed for around £20 return for four people get your snorkel hire yourself and read the info boards yourself they are all in English and Arabic and the guide basically reads it to u Pick up at 8am back hotel around 230 so long day not half day

Good culture experience - Was guided around the main points and was engaging. Did feel quite rushed rather than having own time to absorb. It's also a shame that there is litter in the water. This doesn't effect the star rating but is a good point to note.

Extremely disappointed with this trip - We were picked up on time. everyone was looking forward to the day. then our guide explained that our 1st stop was going to be to a drive centre and under Egyptian law, we needed to have a wet suit due to cold water, life jacket, fins, snorkel, and mask. we already had a snorkel and mask but the cost of 2 life jackets, 2 wetsuits, 2 sets of fins. came to 34.00 to rent for 1 snorkelling swim. which was double what we paid for the trip. so left a sour taste. At no point where we told we did not have to rent these, 2 people did not rent them. (did not find this out until our 2nd stop) If we had been told we also would not have rented them. 2 other couples also said if they had known would not have rented them either.in the end I did not use my lot as water was too rough for me, I was never offered a refund for renting mine. We then drove to the 1st stop of the tour, this is where we were going to snorkel with a guide and had to use all the gear we had rented. We only stopped there for about 35 mins. So was a lot of money to pay for the gear for 35 mins. The other stops along our tour we did not have very long to take pictures. The last part of the tour was to the magic lake for some more Swimming and snorkelling. We were given 20 mins for this and did not have any time to snorkel just a very quick swim. I was looking forward to this as had not done the 1st one. All in all for the total cost of trip and hiring the gear ended up being 65.00 for 2, we have done some really great tours in Egypt for a lot less cost, also far better tours. Extremely disappointed with this trip. I would say you can find a better trip plus not get ripped off to rent gear. That you only going to use for 35 mins and if you a good swimmer then you really don’t need to rent all the gear.

Try someone else - I cancelled the tour with Sun Tours Egypt. While Hotel pick up and drop off was specified tour operator wanted our family to meet them at a gate about 2-3km away from hotel we were staying. then also required 6 euros or 8 usd per person for entrance
