Amazing tour. We saw dolphins on the way to the island. Beautiful beach. Make sure you bring everything with you because the guy from the epicery shop will steal (reap you off) from you.

good trip, well organized

The company behind this tour seems to be Book Tour Egypt. I enjoyed the tour, i was on the boat with Mustafa, Bakkar and the photographer Bisou. Positives: pick up and drop off were perfect, after i booked the company contacted me over whatsapp, i was picked up exactly at the agreed time. They provided free water on the boat. Lunch was delicious. The team tried to engage the group and tried to be funny, but it was not annoying like on some of these kind of tours. First stop of the trip is Orange bay, you can spend time there 90min. Some people dont like orange bay because the water is shallow and you cant really swim, probably the beach of your hotel is better. Lots of tourists there and high prices. I thought it was fine, we had an area there reserved for is with pillows in the shade, i loved that. After that, they take you to 2 snorkeling spots, which was fun. I have to admit that it was really well organized, save and thought through. At the end they also offered a banana boat ride. Another positive thing was that the boat wasnt too crowded, everyboy had a sitting spot in deck of the boat in the shade. On my tour there were Russian, Romanian, Italian and French tourists, many families.

What a day!

Amazing trip

Sarah_H, Jul 2021
Amazing trip. Highly recommend it as everything was really perfect, starting from the pick up ( bus arrived on time and was in a very good condition) then the people responsible for the trip on the boat were beyond friendly and helpful. I have with me 4 children and they were really happy and felt so safe because of the crew. A big thank you for the crew

Les personnes qui s’occupent de vous, du driver ( adorable) au personnel du bateau ! Dommage que les activités ne durent pas assez longtemps !

Très bonne journée dans l’île de Giftun

On a passé une très bonne journée à l’île de Guftun, je recommande cette excursion qui n’est pas cher et très agréable

Hermosa experiencia.

GabrielEmilio_D, Apr 2024
Hermosa experiencia. Tripulacion amable. Isla paradisíaca. Snorkel aceptable aunque podrían brindar l mascaras mas modernas. Y la espera para la recogida por el hotel fue un poco larga. Igualmente fue un momento inolvidable.

Paradisiaque
