My first ever liveaboard and it was the best experience!! I loved every minute of it, the crew were extremely helpful and friendly and full of so much knowledge and entertainment. The food was extremely tasty and there was so much of it, it was difficult to stop, big thank you to the chef for meeting all of the team’s dietary recommendations also! My DM Mario was a brilliant guide, he made sure our safety was the most important thing whilst also making our dives fun. I felt very safe with him guiding us, he even managed to find dolphins on one of our dives! Huge thank you to everyone in the crew, excellent value for money considering how many dives you do and the locations were beautiful! I highly recommend this trip!!!

I had the best time on Amelie Safari last year (2024), truly an experience I will never forget. I was originally booked on My Sea Dragon and was switched to this boat by the same operator as noone else has booked that vessel. I was a little nervous at first when I boarded and learnt I was going to be the only female on the boat, but I had nothing to worry about as I was treated exceptionally and the crew checked in with how I was feeling and went out of their way to make sure I felt safe and comfortable, asking for feedback regularly if I wanted them to do anything differently. The boat was gorgeous, only lost one star because the original boat I booked had an ensuite and this one didnt. The diving was truly otherworldly, the food was incredible and the dive guide - Moustafa - looked after us very well, very knowledgeable. I also did my advanced cert on the trip and would highly recommend.

Truely one of the best trips of my life! It is the first time doing a Liveaboat and it truely blew me away! This would have been without the great company I had on the boat and the amazing Mostafa and his team - respectful and professional! Food was amazing and gave me an insight into Egyptian cuisine, it really was a place to meet new people, eat good food and most importantly dive in some of the most beautiful parts of the Red Sea - let along world! Highly recommended, I will be revisiting in due time 🫶🏽 thank you all once again!!!
