Orange bay + snorkeling
stevedurand1974, September 2026
An experience without visitors at Orange bay is not something you turn down, plus the 2 snorkeling sites were otherwise great

A beautiful day, but not true luxury
Bad-Homburg-Travel, August 2026
Basically, it was a really great experience and I can recommend the tour. The highlight for me was Orange Bay – experiencing the island before the big tourist crowds was something special. Snorkeling was also beautiful.
Why only four stars then? The procedures were sometimes too strictly regulated for me. I understand the safety requirements, but I would have liked more personal responsibility and freedom, as I know it from similar tours in Egypt.
Also, the term "Luxury Cruise" was not quite fulfilled for me. The food was okay, but rather simple and without special local specialties. The beverage supply with small plastic cups also seemed of low quality.
Furthermore, there were not enough comfortable seats and loungers for all guests. Those who were on board early were lucky – everyone else had to sit much less comfortably. At this price, I would have expected more here.
The crew was very friendly and dedicated. Overall, it was a nice tour with great snorkeling spots and an unforgettable visit to Orange Bay. With a little more freedom and higher-quality equipment, it would have been 5 stars for me.

No luxury, average experience. Highly Unprofessional!
Nancy_S, July 2026
This is not a luxury experience. Its just a bunch of barbaric boys leading the trip. Average quality Yatch, not premium.

beautiful experience!
gabriellamH3821YF, July 2026
Genuinely an unforgettable experience from the start!
Thorough communication via WhatsApp leading up to the excursion. Transfer was good there and back and prompt on time.
The crew are very welcoming and clearly experienced at what they do. We were quite nervous doing a trip outside of our resort, but they made it a comfortable experience and are all a good laugh!
I had never dived or snorkelled before, but the team were extremely supportive with me.
Lunch was great and refreshments, snacks and massage available during.
Orange Bay was a lovely stop also.
Cameraman was taking pictures all day and the price is extremely fair for the amount of photos you receive.
My expectations were genuinely exceeded with this trip I can’t recommend enough :)

Fantastic day out
Scott C, June 2026
What a fantastic day out. Picked up from hotel on time and taken to the marina. All the crew were friendly and made you feel welcome onboard the royal as soon as you embarked the boat . Orange bay is pretty for photos but where these guys excel is the snorkelling and diving and customer service. Food onboard was tasty and i even went back for seconds. A great day and easily worth the price, well done Andrew and crew. They take photos all day and offer you them at the end and at a very reasonable price and we also tipped them cos they deseved it with all there hard work and enthusiasm.
