Very nice trip , we recommend it to all
We been picked up from the hotel’s jetty for the boat, then Steve has described the whole tour. Steve was well organized the narrate the important points, safety matters what is important. Then Steve asked us to, choose for one longer snorkeling place or we take 2 shorts place to snorkeling. We’re 5 in our family, with small one is 12, Steve made sure we stay save and enjoy the most. After that we were taken to the Magawish island for the lunch and also been accommodated to chill in the deluxe vip place which also been included by the trip. Highly recommended and best value for money. Thanks Steve 🙌🙏🏽

How far in advance should I book Magawish Island & watching Dolphin by Boat Trip from Hurghada.?
+
Around 24 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.

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?
+
