    Did I get scammed??

    The whole experience was rather sketchy and I was sure I was getting scammed. I had no confirmation of pickup time until the driver had already arrived (despite asking the night before). I was asked to give the dive money to the driver and I was dropped off at a random boat with no explanation. The guide Boudy that I was communicating with did not show up or explained that I was handed over to another dive company. I was left wondering what was going on and questioning how badly I got scammed. I ended up diving with a guide name Ahmed. He was very nice but the dive sites themselves were nothing spectacular. The excursions itself was also very long as it was mixed with people going to orange island and snorkeling. There was a fair amount of waiting time. Overall I would not book this tour again nor would I recommend it. Definitely my worst dive experience.

    Best diving experience in hurghada

    I had an amazing timeee, my favourite thing I did in Egypt. I was first very nervous about doing it as I hadn’t done it before but with Boudys help, guidance, words of encouragement I left feeling like a professional with great pictures and videos as well I would 1000% recommend and can’t wait to go back again!

    Amazing Experience

    What a wonderful day we had. The group that took us out were so professional and caring. They had great patience and took time to help and advise on safety. We had went diving before but these boys were amazing, it was such a fantastic experience and if your not to confident, these professional divers take their time to make sure you feel confident. Do not hesitate to try this company out as we were so impressed and the lunch was amazing along with the company on board. Thanks to all the staff for making it such a wonderful day for us.

    Response from the operator: Dear Marianne, Thank you for taking time to share your detailed review about recent trip with us. It was a pleasure to know that we met your expectations and diving has brought you such positive emotions. We appreciate your high evaluation of our service, organization, crew and food on board.

    World Best Scuba Diving Experience

    We had Boudy for our scuba diving experience and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better guide he made the whole experience from the beginning to the very end. He was very calming and explained everything very well and was very patient to make the experience spectacular. It was very fairly priced and the pictures and videos were incredible! Would 110% recommend and would definitely do it again. Crazy dolphin center is the only place you should book with!!

    Red Sea Diving Trip from Hurghada: Beginner to Advanced Divers: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.

    How much does Red Sea Diving Trip from Hurghada: Beginner to Advanced Divers cost?

    +

    Prices start at $69 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 Red Sea Diving Trip from Hurghada: Beginner to Advanced Divers 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 Red Sea Diving Trip from Hurghada: Beginner to Advanced Divers worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 593 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 Red Sea Diving Trip from Hurghada: Beginner to Advanced Divers?

    +

    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 Red Sea Diving Trip from Hurghada: Beginner to Advanced Divers 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 Red Sea Diving Trip from Hurghada: Beginner to Advanced Divers?

    +

    Around 208 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 Red Sea Diving Trip from Hurghada: Beginner to Advanced Divers 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, Hurghada Scuba Diving Full Day Boat Trip With Lunch & Transfer. 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.
