FAQ

Questions about Hurghada boat trips

What is included in Hurghada boat trips?

Hurghada boat trips include round-trip transfers from your hotel, national park entrance fees, two guided snorkeling sessions, and complete snorkeling equipment with life jackets. Guests receive an open buffet lunch, mineral water and soft drinks on board, plus complimentary photos and video of the day.

Can non-swimmers join boat trips and snorkel?

Yes. Non-swimmers can comfortably join boat trips because our crew provides buoyancy vests and in-water guidance at every stop. Alternatively, the semi-submarine cruise offers underwater observation windows three metres below the surface, allowing you to view marine life and coral reefs without entering the water.

Are wild dolphins guaranteed on dolphin boat trips?

Dolphins live wild in the open Red Sea around Dolphin House reef, so sightings cannot be guaranteed. Our trips observe wild dolphins only and never captive dolphins, without chasing or touching them. Morning cruises observe wild dolphins in their natural habitat, but sightings depend entirely on natural animal movements.

What happens if sea conditions or weather cancel the trip?

If the coastguard closes Hurghada harbour due to strong sea winds or rough swells, we contact you immediately. Guests can reschedule to any upcoming date without penalty or swap to an inland activity such as a desert safari. If rescheduling does not suit your holiday plans, cancellation is free.

Is hotel transfer included from El Gouna and Makadi Bay?

Yes. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included free of charge from all resorts across the Hurghada coast, extending north to El Gouna and south to Sahl Hasheesh, Makadi Bay and Soma Bay. We send your confirmed pickup window directly by message the evening before your scheduled departure.
