Not for us anymore!!
The ad says Max 30 people! With us on the boat we have counted 50 guests! No place above i on the boat, because we were late. Later picked up as agreed! So very busy on the boat! That wasn't what we wanted. Refund requested, but it could not be confirmed that so many people were on the boat. So... We were not believed. Very unfortunate!! 😡
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We understand your concerns regarding the number of guests on the boat and the pickup timing. Please know that we did contact you after your trip because we genuinely wanted to offer compensation as a gesture of goodwill. Unfortunately, our offer was not accepted. Customer satisfaction is very important to us, and we regret that we could not reach a resolution that felt fair to you. Your comments have been taken seriously and shared with our operations team to help us improve. Thank you again for your review.

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Orange Bay & Giftun Boat Trip with Snorkeling & Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does Orange Bay & Giftun Boat Trip with Snorkeling & Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $12 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 Orange Bay & Giftun Boat Trip with Snorkeling & Lunch 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 Orange Bay & Giftun Boat Trip with Snorkeling & Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 5 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 Orange Bay & Giftun Boat Trip with Snorkeling & Lunch?
+
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 Orange Bay & Giftun Boat Trip with Snorkeling & Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Orange Bay & Giftun Boat Trip with Snorkeling & Lunch?
+
Around 2 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 Orange Bay & Giftun Boat Trip with Snorkeling & Lunch 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.
