Red Sea Egyptian Boat Tour
Description
Would you like to experience life as the ancient pharaohs? Join us for an Egyptian boat journey across the Red Sea, where you'll board the Nefertari, a vessel adorned with Egyptian motifs and panoramic windows that reveal the mesmerizing underwater world!
Tour Overview
Your adventure begins with a convenient pickup from your Marsa Alam hotel, leading you to the port. At the harbor, you will find the Nefertari ready for departure, designed to provide an atmosphere reminiscent of the ancient times of the pharaohs and pyramids.
Upon stepping aboard, you'll be impressed by the main salon, elegantly decorated to evoke the luxurious interiors of Nefertiti's tomb, along with breathtaking replicas of Tutankhamun's treasures. As you ascend to the upper deck, the stunning ornamentation featuring temple columns and a starry dome will transport you under a celestial desert sky, making the boat feel like a floating museum of antiquity!
Setting sail from the port, we head towards Marsa Mubarak, also known as Bahía Tortugas. Here, you can descend to the underwater viewing platform, which lies 9.84 miles (3 meters) below the surface. Through its panoramic windows, you will marvel at the vibrant coral reef ecosystem, home to a stunning array of colorful fish, stingrays, turtles, dolphins, and, if fortune smiles upon you, the rare dugong, affectionately known as the sea cow.
Following this, we will anchor at one of the top snorkeling sites in the region. You’ll have 45 minutes to delve into the aquatic wonders that lie beneath the surface. Remember to bring your underwater camera to capture the magic!
While onboard, you can indulge in the tradition of dressing as the regal kings and queens of ancient Egypt. Have your picture taken while seated on Tutankhamun's throne, creating lasting memories from this extraordinary outing.
To conclude this remarkable experience, we will serve a sumptuous three-course lunch or dinner based on your selected departure time. The menu features fresh seafood soup, grilled fish, squid, salads, and a variety of options to appease all dietary preferences, including chicken, vegan, and gluten-free choices. It's truly a feast onboard!
Finally, upon returning to land, you will have 45 minutes of leisure time at the Marina Lodge at Port Ghalib. Feel free to wander, shop, or simply take in the scenic surroundings. After this engaging 4.5 to 5-hour journey, we will escort you back to your hotel, bidding farewell as your adventure concludes.
