Emperor Asmaa Tauchsafari, Ägypten

Emperor Fleet Gets High Praise. This boat to small.

Teeth cleaning by cleaner wrasse Quite excellent food Excellent dive briefings by a cruise director with a sense of humor. Prefer a larger boat with dedicated dry space for cameras, more exterior lounge space and dedicated smoking location..

Great Dives with Great People

The highlight was two full days of diving in St. John's and Fury Shoals. Shaab Maksour and Elphinstone were amazing. The crew were all really helpful and caring. They clearly have the boat down to a science. They are very attentive and notice the smallest need, like when you forget to get a spoon to go with your soup.

Great diving and amazing crew

Firstly, this is the first liveaboard I have been on with a dedicated pastry chef. I can't say enough about the food! The whole crew was cheerful and endlessly helpful. They made the week awesome. And finally, the diving was great. Saw turtles, sharks, and endless coral and assorted marine life.

Its ok.

Overall is ok, nothing jump out for the overall trip. One complain I have is the information provided is never clear. Feel like the agent does not really connect with the board. For instance, I have to emphasized couple times to the board about the meal preference even though I have request the information to be sent to the board. Also, the return trip arrangement. Basically, any information provided in the email to the board via the agent is not passed down to the manager on board. I have to arrange and work with the on board manager directly. And one more frustration, the aboard crew is try to "steal" money from the client by forcing us to buy tools which were not told as required. For example, the SMB. For the entire trip, we did not even need to use the SMB. Nothing mentioned in the email that this is REQUIRED. So, I did not bring mind, when on board, I was forced to either rent or buy one. Though, the only time we use this is on the check dive, just to test and show we know how to use it. And even more ironic, even if this is required, me and my friend are in a buddy team, which mean we only need one SMB, but the person on board told us we need to each get one. But later on when in water, everyone was told when one person in the group releases the SMB, the rest of the group does not need to use the SMB at all. And even more ironic, the entire trip setup is in an environment without current with the board anchor to the reef, not seeing any need for the SMB at all.

Kleines Boot für mehr familiäre Tour als die die neuen 30+ Superyachten.

Meine 5 Tour mit Emperor und wird definitiv nicht die letzte sein! Die Touchguides (Joe, Eslam und Salah) waren top und die Schiffscrew war immer freundlich und hilfsbereit. Der Käptain war immer für ein Spass zu haben. Essen gab es wie immer viel zu viel. :) Einige der Schiffscrew konnten kein Englisch, oder nur sehr schlecht, was aber kein Problem war. Mit den anderen kommt man sehr gut ins Gespräch. Negatives gibt es nur zum Boot aufzulisten. Im Badzimmer gibt es keinen Duschvorhang oder räumlich abgetrennte Dusche, so das alles nass wird. Das ist jedoch nicht weiter schlimm, einfach alles in der Kabine lassen. Als einziger grosser negativer Punkt zu erwähnen ist der verfügbare Schattenplatz. Wir hatten bis zu 40°C und Schattenplätze sind sehr limitiert. Auf dem Main Deck gibt es je nach Sonnenstand kaum Sitzmöglichkeiten im Schatten und leider biettet das Flydeck absolut keinen Schattenplatz obwohl es anscheinend die nötigen Vorrichtungen hätte um eine Sonnensegel zu montieren. Wenn man die Preise mit anderen Booten vergleicht wird man hier wohl das beste Preis-Leistung-Verhätlnis erhalten.

Fantastic experience from beginning to end just perfect.

Ras Mohammed & SS Thistlegorm, making new friendships and most of all spending quality time with my daughter diving. The crew were so helpful and friendly we didn't have to lift a finger from arrival to departure Emperor Diver are amazing. Clever Captain and guides avoided the crowds and gave us all the experience to remember. Completely honest all costs inclusive and unlimited food and drink just fab, the food was just amazing from the chefs. The Emperor Asmaa is a lovely ship with all internal spaces air conditioned and great sun cover. 22 dives, inc 5 night dives in one week Don't think about it just book it you will not be disappointed for any level of experience.
