Pick up was in time and we have been transferred to the beautiful sea port. After that, we have been sailing to the beautiful Ras Mohamed. We made a snorkeling in the Red Sea and it's AMAZING . We had a good lunch, freshly prepared on the ship and the staff were friendly to us. I highly recommend you to book with this provider and from the reviews you can see real rating to the service. I have tried with them different activities. Finally I want to thank everyone for a great time and hospitality.
