    The snorkelling was excellent and I felt very safe. The guides were very conscientious ensuring everyone was ok and they pointed out various different species. We were given 1 tiny bottle of water prior to boarding the boat and there was nothing on board. By the time we set sail we had all drunk our supply. We had to purchase some when we arrived at the Island. We did not have lunch until 2.30 and that was the only other free drink. We were led to believe soft drinks would be available.

    Grundsätzlich ein schöner Ausflug. Aber, die Zeitangabe waren 7 Stunden - wir sind erst nach 12 Stunden heimgekommen - wir haben fast das Abendessen im Hotel versäumt und wir waren mit Kind unterwegs und hatten am nächsten Tag auch noch einen Ausflug gebucht, was einfach viel zu anstrengend war. Weiters ist es etwas stressig, aufs Boot, vom Boot, zur Liege,...vielleicht lässt man die Schnorchelausfahrt einfach weg und macht es weniger lange. Ansonsten war unser Guide sehr nett und war es fein.

    Trotz einiger negativer Bewertungen im Vorfeld waren wir begeistert! Der Ausflug nach Mahmya Island war super organisiert. Unser Guide Ahmed war sehr freundlich. Beim Schnorcheln waren nur zwei Boote da, wir sahen viele bunte Fische. Essen & Getränke auf der Insel waren inklusive. Kein Stress, genug Zeit für alles. Der Sonnenuntergang war traumhaft. Top Preis-Leistung absolut empfehlenswert!
