We had a wonderful trip to Luxor! 😊 The experience was beautiful, and we got to see amazing places and learn more about Egypt’s history. It was quite tiring for the children because of the long journey, but overall, we enjoyed it as a family. Thank you to Hurghada Travels for organizing the trip and for your help! 🌴🇪🇬
Just perfect.
Great tour for individual requests regarding snorkeling spots , dolphin watching and swimming
1 minus point: our Captain participated with us in this “chasing the dolphins” game, where all the boats chase the Dolphins someone saw
We asked to stop and go back to Marina .

Schon der Kontakt über WhatsApp war super unkompliziert. Alle Absprachen wurden genau so eingehalten, wie sie vorher vereinbart waren. Man hatte von Anfang an ein gutes Gefühl und konnte sich darauf verlassen, dass alles funktioniert. Genau so wünscht man sich das im Urlaub.
