Dont bother
Avoid this if you dont want to be disapointed. Our experence may be different to others but we felt the trip was a waste of money. We were taken to the orange bay area for a 2 hour stop.this place is just a dirty stretch of beach enclosed at both ends. The whole place is geared to making as much money as possible such as coctails for 12 euros and a tiny portion of fries for 7 euros. They enforce a no food and drink of your own as you enter, then herd you to a strip of beach covered with filthy beanbags. As you arrive you are accosted by sellers wanting your custom which is ok once but gets a little annoying the 6 or 7th time. If you try and wander off the beach you are met with ropes and piles of filth encluding bottles of urine( they charge to use the toilets) . We were supposedcto have 2 stops to swim but only had one for an extended period. For us however the worst was apon returning to the dock, as the staff abandoned us there as our arranged transport had not arrived. We were left alone on a empty dock for 30 miniutes until a ramshacle taxi arrived to return us to our hotel. Wecwould not recomend this at all.

Best snorkel trip
The boat was nice and I had a great time. I don't swim but decided doing snorkeling, the crew pulled me to the spots with the floater so I can see beautiful coral reefs and fishes. I had a wonderful time. Thanks

Giftun Island Snorkeling Trip from Hurghada: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does Giftun Island Snorkeling Trip from Hurghada cost?
+
Prices start at $36 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 Giftun Island Snorkeling Trip from Hurghada take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Giftun Island Snorkeling Trip from Hurghada worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 47 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Giftun Island Snorkeling Trip from Hurghada?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Giftun Island Snorkeling Trip from Hurghada suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 4. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 8-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Giftun Island Snorkeling Trip from Hurghada?
+
Around 1 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Giftun Island Snorkeling Trip from Hurghada 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 Diving Adventure one Day with two Dives Boat Trip, Hurghada to Cairo: Pyramids & Museum for First-Time Visitors, Scuba Diving Full Day Boat Trip W/Lunch & Transfer from Hurghada. 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.
