“Despite experiencing a shaky start to the trip due to anxiety from an overly animated taxi driver and a few close calls on the road, I ended up having an amazing experience. Navigating through boats was a bit challenging for me, especially with my balance issues and the heightened anxiety from the ride. However, once I managed to get past that hurdle, everything turned out to be truly wonderful. The trip itself and the tour guides were fantastic, and visiting Orange Bay was a highlight of the journey. Just a word of advice: it's a good idea to have a watch or phone handy for keeping track of time, as…”

“We were only in hurghada for 2 days and this was the best tour we could’ve picked. The reviews aren’t wrong, they could have definitely charged a lot more than what they have. Snorkelling/diving, lunch, the first people to access orange bay beach and water sports, massages, and for like 1/3 of the price they could’ve charged. You had an optional choice to do diving. We did and got a tutorial in it beforehand. I saw a couple reviews talk about the instructions for diving not being clear enough but I’d disagree, I’m awful at picking up new things and I was completely guided through every step and loved it.…”

15.Orange Bay Full Day Snorkeling Sea Trip With Water Sport-Hurghada

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 230 reviews · from $16

Sail from Hurghada to Orange Bay for sandy beach time, two guided snorkeling stops, lunch, coffee or tea, and short banana boat or quadra rides. Ahmed is among the named crew members praised for hospitality, though the water sports can be brief and Orange Bay may feel crowded.

“Orange bay is definitely worth the trip. Good snorkeling also. The banana ride/sofa were a joke as they only brought 1 banana with 4 straps broken. The “ride” was just a 20m run for a photo op and back to the boat. What is worse is that the guide asked for my phone to leave a good review. Would have been a more positive comment without his intervention.”
