Wonderful experience! First safari, gladly again!
Great boat, great crew, great dive spots and guides. We were also allowed to dive "unguided" if we wanted to. Terrific food, individually tailored to our needs. Almost a non-smoking boat with a clearly defined smoking area that does not include the equipment and superstructure area. Really wonderful. I would book exactly the same way again, maybe even longer.

Excellent !!
We had an exceptional week aboard this diving liveaboard, which accommodates up to 16 guests in 8 comfortable cabins. The living space is well designed: a covered main deck with benches and tables for meals and relaxing moments, and a top deck with mattresses to soak up the sun between dives.The crew was absolutely fantastic — always attentive, responsive to any needs, and incredibly kind. The food was delicious, varied, and well balanced (with carbs, vegetables, etc.), which is a real plus on this type of trip.As for the diving, everything was great: the equipment was of good quality and in proper working condition, and Nitrox was available for those who wanted it. The two dive guides were amazing — professional, funny, and caring. A special shoutout to Wessam, who accompanied us throughout the week and whom I warmly recommend.The only small downside was the organization on the first day, as the diving equipment only arrived on board in the evening.In summary, a fantastic trip with an incredible team. I highly recommend this cruise to all ocean and diving enthusiasts.

Very good tour with a great team
Very pleasant experience and the best value for the money The boat cannot be compared to bigger boats designed for 24+ guests but it is clean and good for smaller group - also the sun deck is very optimized with a lot of sits and mattresses The tour is ideal for beginner and for refresher dives, or to pass quick certifications The dive guide ensured that Amelie Adventures are securing each slot even for 1 guests... we were 3, which offered opportunity to upgrade to upper deck cabin (he told me that following week was with 11 guests)

Dive guy - Mustafa and his colleague were very nice and pleasant. Food - I made several safari dive and the food is one of the best experience I had. Dive site - despite low number of guests, Amelie Adventures ensured to reach far best dive spots such as Ghianni D and Karnatic.

Great liveaboard - as always!
Well organized - from the pick-up at the airport, direct transport to the boat, all inclusive food on board (coffee/tea/snacks/water 24h), great food (absolutely compatible/fresh/varied), incredibly great dive sites (moray eels/rays/dolphins/schools of fish/deep dive/...), diving in small groups at different levels of experience, great atmosphere on board, payment of the extra costs (National Fee/Tax/additional equipment) in Euro/Dollar/Egyptian Pounds or credit card. Liveaboard with LiveAboard as before is again absolutely recommended!!

Mahmoud - the "good soul" of the boat, who took care of us in the absolute best way. Crystal clear water with tons of fish. Diving with dolphins - an absolute highlight.

Good value for small amount, especially for beginners.
The “ Best of Hurghada “ trip visits the easily reachable divesites based on weather conditions and the experience level of the guests. It is a great option for beginners to have their first liveaboard experience, and for advanced divers if they are short on time. Dolphin House is a main highlight that everyone enjoys regardless of the experience level, however when it comes to other reefs the more advanced dives are the more beautiful the reefs will be. 50 years of dive tourism has left it’s mark on some of the easier divesites. Food is simple but delicious especially if you like Egyptian cuisine. Dive instructors are kind and professional, equipment quality and general safety is also good.

My first liveaboard certainly exceeded my expectations.
Strong winds meant that we weren't able to set off as early as the crew would have liked, then it took what felt like 100 years for the marshal to come and sign our release papers. I didn't mind too much as I had a book at brought some games to play. Despite the delay the dive masters and crew worked really hard to ensure we still managed to get in the maximum number of dives which was amazing. The dives were brilliant and really varied, from coral to caves and wrecks. I also did my first night dive which was incredible the amount of wildlife we saw was amazing. We did see a pod of wild dolphins, but otherwise nothing really big. Which we wouldn't expect in the red sea anyways, but it was all stunning and preserved really well. Also the dive sites were not crowded with loads of boats which I liked as sometimes the diving tourism is too much. The boat was comfortable, the cabins are a little small but the beds were made up and cleaned every day which was a nice touch. The bathrooms also instantly had hot fresh water which let me tell you in incredible after a dive and something I'll be looking for in the comments on all dive boats in future. The crew were all so lovely and even had a lovely chat with the captain. The food on the boat was so much better than I could have imagined and different every day. I would say there isn't much option if you're a vegan (I noticed) but otherwise lots to chose from. The mid meal snack where also really lovely with a range of things like pizza and samosas not just the usual fruit and crackers. Would recommend this boat and trip to anyone thinking of trying their first liveaboard or going for a quick trip.

Amazing crew making it a lovely trip
Had an amazing time aboard the Eypros1 with the team of Amelie Adventures! The crew was very helpful, continuesly trying to provide the best service they could. After every dive there was a nice drink prepared by Mahmoud, followed by either a snack or a meal. Special thanks to our diveguide Mario and captain Hisham! They took excellent care of everyone during the dive and made sure everything was arranged before leaving. To Shref (and all the other guys I forgot the names of already) a thankyou for making sure we got to see the whaleshark and dolphins up close by being ready with the Zodiac boat super fast! Would definitely recommend :)

Top for beginners
Ideal for people who want to try life on a liveaboard. The focus is on diving and the joy of it, not on luxury and comfort. The cabin on the upper deck was more than sufficient for the short trip. We saw a lot of great stuff from the wreck to the Blue Marlin.

It was a fantastic experience. The dive sites were beautiful, and everyone could indicate if there were any special wishes. We came to places where there were no other boats, so we were the only divers. After each dive there was a delicious extensive buffet of food ready. The crew is professional and friendly and takes very good care of you. The cabins are comfortable and equipped with a private toilet and shower. Recommended for a short intensive diving trip!

Great guides, crew and itinerary
I took this liveaboard in August 2025. It was my first experience and was so positive I came back to the Red Sea to do a longer trip. I especially enjoyed diving the Carnatic, and the completing this along with the Giannis D were probably the highlight dives of the trip. If you are on a tight schedule and looking to do a great trip on a smaller boat with an awesome crew you can’t go wrong with Amelie.
