Top circuit
15 days cruise with highlights. Several dives at the BDE sites to maximize the chance to see hammerheads and the like. Cabin too small (forward) and food always the same The diving platform is convenient

Some great videos, but it gets less over time, fewer animals, too many divers

Very good value for money!!
I was really pleased with this experience - overall very good value for money. I could have done a total of 44 dives during the two weeks (had to pause a bit because of a cold). Small boat so we had a pretty familiar atmosphere onboard - most the crew had been on this vessel for a couple of years. Good choice of dive spots and times.

Much better than expected
Very friendly Dive Guides and crew. Boat is not new but crew takes very good care of it. Boat is not big, so small dive groups, we had two groups of 5-6 divers each. Enough food, good variety. Cabins cleaned every day. Very good organization of the trip and additional services like visa, transfers, insurance. Very good price for the quality.

Thunderbird is not a luxury liveaboard, but the overall diving operation and experience during the 2-week trip very pleasant and recommended
high customer orientation, hospitality and professionalism of the entire Thunderbird crew, including Deep Blue Cruises office in Hurghada.
