Hurghada yacht trip to Orange Bay, Giftun and Magawish for dolphin spotting and two snorkeling stops, plus seafood lunch, pickup, and snacks.

“Hotel pickup was punctual and everything was well organized from the beginning. Upon arrival at the port, we boarded the yacht, where the crew introduced themselves and explained the activities planned for the day. We had plenty of time for snorkeling, which was truly amazing. During that time, they took photos and videos that you can purchase at the end of the excursion. The second stop was at Orange Island, where we had free time to enjoy a drink or simply relax and take in the beautiful views the island offers. At the last island, we again had free time either to snorkel more or just unwind and enjoy the…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 120 reviews · from $150Top rated

Private yacht cruise from Hurghada to Dolphin House with hotel pickup, 2 snorkeling stops, lunch onboard, and dolphin time.

“This was advertised as a two hour dive, “the only quick dive in Hurghada”, but the trip took 9 hours. The diving was great and the guides were friendly and knowledgeable but I was expecting a short trip without any extras so I could still have the rest of my day to do something else. So just be aware you will not be on a two hour dive like the listing advertised.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 70 reviews · from $53

Cruise Orange Bay and Magawish from Hurghada with 2 snorkeling stops, seafood lunch, optional parasailing, and a chance to spot dolphins.

“Wir haben einen unvergesslichen Bootstrip zur Orange Bay und weiteren Inseln erlebt. Besonders beeindruckend waren die drei Schnorchelausflüge, bei denen wir wunderschöne Korallenriffe und zahlreiche bunte Fische sehen konnten – sogar Delfine durften wir beobachten! Die Guides waren sehr freundlich, humorvoll und stets um unser Wohl bemüht. Die Organisation an Bord war top und mit viel Herz gemacht. Absolut empfehlenswert! Ein kleiner Verbesserungsvorschlag: Die Kommunikation am Vorabend könnte klarer sein, insbesondere bezüglich des Treffpunkts. Ursprünglich sollten wir an der Hauptstraße abgeholt werden, was etwas unpraktisch war. Nach Rücksprache wurden wir dann aber pünktlich direkt an der Hotellobby abgeholt – vielen Dank dafür!Read more”

8.Luxury Yacht Trip with Personal Crew and Chef

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 61 reviews · 5 hours · from $135

Private Red Sea yacht with personal crew and chef, 5-hour sunset cruise with guided snorkeling and lunch, Hurghada.

“We initially expected a private yacht experience, so there was a bit of confusion at first. However, the exceptional staff truly made up for it. Despite there being four other guests on board, the team made us feel like we were the only ones there — attentive, warm, and incredibly professional. What stood out most was how the tour guides encouraged and supported my friends who couldn’t swim. Their patience and guidance gave everyone the confidence to get into the water, and we always felt safe and cared for. It ended up being a beautiful and memorable experience thanks to the amazing crew.”

“The trip was absolutely fantastic. Our driver was punctual at the agreed pick-up point and got us to the boat quickly and safely. We were the only guests that day, so we practically had a private tour. The guide was very friendly and helpful. The snorkeling spot was absolutely stunning, and we had it completely to ourselves. The guide took wonderful care of my 60-year-old mother. Afterward, we continued on to the island and were able to spend the rest of the day relaxing there. Even when I realized I had left a bag on the boat, I was immediately driven back to get it. The food on the island…”
