What people are saying about Dahab

This was a day filled with so many amazing activities. We started off at the equipment hire shop. The process was swift and quite enjoyable. You need to pay an extra 15 dollars for your equipment. We then drove to the Blue Hole. We weren't actually allowed to snorkel in the Blue Hole which was quite disappointing, but we snorkeled close by with the view of the beautiful mountains. We then went back to the restaurant where we had placed our belongings and had some lunch. The lunch was fairly good, I wasn't a fan of the mango juice as it was too sweet for me. We then went on to riding camels on the beach, which was a surreal experience. After that we went to Dahab Mall were we did some shopping, and headed to the colored canyon close to sunset time. At the end of our walk in the magnificent colored canyon, we had Egyptian tea and headed back to the cars and did some dune bashing on our way to the transportation that was going to take us back to our hotel.

Exceeded our expectations and the best experience using your company. Really helpful, kind guide and staff involved with the day. Lots of fun activities crammed into one day. I loved the snorkeling, bedouin meal and Safari Jeep ride the most. I'd recommend having extra money for snorkeling equipment. Plus bring plenty of water to keep hydrated and food for the children begging.

The experience was amazing, started at 8 am, it was a full day of activities, from snorkeling to camel ride, a little bit of relax for the food stop and straight in the canyon for a walk and a jeep ride, we will always remember HABIBI group and this amazing day :)

Really great experience with different locations to swim and have a good time, the instructors were really friendly and gave informative instructions !

I had a great time,a very good experience,the team was very helpful and kind
