Review of the Ras Mohamed and White Island yacht trip from Sharm el Sheikh, covering snorkeling, lunch, costs, safety, crowds, and value.
“I was not happy with the overall trip when you are charging double the price for the activities itself. When you have rude staff onboard thinking they can come and use their manipulation tactics on board and in terms of lunch service I have never seen a much worse lunch experience in my life. When you had no fresh food and treat tourist like nothing”

Sail Hilton Head on the historic Stars & Stripes yacht, help work the sails, spot dolphins, and enjoy a practical 90-minute cruise.
“This sailing trip on the Stars & Stripes was amazing and we felt very fortunate to be on an "America's Cup" boat. Staff was super friendly! A couple of suggestions: 1.You might mention on your website that most of the seating is literally on the boat deck (could be difficult for older, larger people to sit down and then get up); 2. Didn't see anything on your website about you selling beer & wine. Was a pleasant surprise to have the availability. Would recommend this cruise!”

Review of Hurghada's Paradise Island cruise, with snorkeling, lunch, transfers, timing, value, tips, and honest drawbacks.
“Such a good value for money, paid £15 for me and my partner that included the snorkel equipment for free no need to pay, all you can buffet for an hour with 1 free soft drink of your choice an hours worth of snorkelling and 3 hours on the paradise island. I will say to buy the photography afterwards was quite expensive it was £50 compared to others only charge £20-25 but all the staff are lovely friendly and very very helpful.”
Spend eight hours island hopping from Pattaya aboard an 82-foot yacht with snorkeling, water toys, Thai BBQ, sunset views, and a live DJ.
“The program was varied and offered good value for money. Unfortunately, the female members of the accompanying staff were not helpful at all, except for the lady shown in the picture. Our phone was about to run out of battery and we wanted to ask for a little charge, but they refused and were not kind. The lady in the picture helped immediately, smiled, and was kind. She gave us her own power bank. Perhaps the others should not be dealing with customers if it is such a burden for them…”
