Worth for the price but same as shorter tours, extra charge
First of all, don’t be tempted by the price or the fact that it’s a full-day tour; it actually offers the same content as the other 2–3 hour tours. As for the money, there are extras like tips and photos. The water sports activity is basically set up just for taking photos — each group gets on and off in about 1 minute. There are some hygiene issues. The food is average. Also, be aware that at the end of the tour they forcefully ask you for a review.
Response from the operator: Dear guest, Thank you for sharing the feedback about recent trip to Dolphin house. We’re truly sorry that the trip hasn’t met your expectations. We appreciate your notes and concern which have been already shared with responsible team in order to investigate the situation. Best regards, Crazy Dolphin team

Diving with Crazy Dolphin Diving Center
Great experience! Very seasoned dive operation and well run by Hady the owner. Had a bit of a complicated travel schedule and he made it work out for me. Several times I was in contact and very prompt replies and very accommodating to say the least! Lots of staff to help with any of your needs, good rentals (Scubapro) boats are big, comfortable and well maintained and equipped. If you don’t get to boat dive do the house reef for sure! Most house reefs take a lot of pressure and it does show some signs but overall an excellent dive! Thanks Guys!! Tim Codling
Response from the operator: Dear Tim, Thank you for taking time to share your review. We were delighted to know that we met your expectations and you enjoyed diving experience at the Red Sea. We appreciate your high evaluation of our service, equipment, organization. Looking forward to seeing you again here! Best regards, Crazy Dolphin team

Why this scores 83
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Dolphin house: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does Dolphin house cost?
+
Prices start at $25 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hurghada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Dolphin house take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hurghada is not rushed.
Is Dolphin house worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 142 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Dolphin house?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Dolphin house suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Dolphin house?
+
Around 50 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hurghada can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hurghada and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Dolphin house start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hurghada within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Hurghada?
+
On Outty we rank every Hurghada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hurghada: Luxor Valley of the Kings & Tutankhamun Tomb Trip, Orange Bay Island, Luxury Cruise to Orange Bay and Hula Hula island Trip. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Hurghada?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Hurghada?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
