Ride calm horses from Marsa Alam’s desert to the Red Sea, with sunrise, sunset, hotel pickup, and VIP sea swims available.

“All in all a very nice tour. Pick up and drop Off at the hotel without any trouble. Horse was well chosen for an experienced rider. Swimming with the horse was great and the guide was very kind and made everything to the customers choice. The only minor bit was that I would have preferred to get more general information about destination, country and people. Due to his limited English only very basic communication was possible. But I would definitely do it again.”

10.Marsa Mubarak snorkeling with dugong and turtles – marsaalam

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 88 reviews · from $82

Review of Marsa Mubarak snorkeling from Marsa Alam, with dugongs, turtles, coral reefs, lunch, hotel pickup, and practical booking advice.

“Non dimenticherò mai questa esperienza. In un solo giorno ho visto più specie marine che in una vita. L’unica nota negativa è che per vedere il dugongo c’era davvero tantissima gente e andavano addosso all’animale per toccarlo. Forse andare un gruppo alla volta aiuterebbe ad evitare questi assembramenti. In ogni caso è stata una delle più belle escursioni di sempre e abbiamo avuto anche un sacco di tempo per fare Snorkeling. Consigliatissimo!!!”

“Very nice experience, glad to have seen turtles and the other wildlife. The boat is very nice, very clean and the food served was good, but not great. The staff were excellent however and very engaging and attentive. What let this excursion down was that it felt longer than it needed to be, the prices of the refreshments onboard, the prices of the photos that are taken of you and also we had to wait a long time after the free time in Port Ghalib for our pickup which was supposed to be at 7pm but didn't arrive till nearly 7:40pm.”
