Description

Step aboard the Nefertari, a pharaonic-style boat designed as a floating replica of Queen Nefertari's ancient tomb. This cruise from Hurghada combines snorkeling with the atmosphere of ancient Egypt.

After hotel pickup in Hurghada, we take you to Makadi Bay Marina, where the cruise starts toward Abu Hashish Island. The trip runs daily with two departures, at 09:00 or 13:30, and the whole trip takes about 4 hours.

Queen Nefertari was the wife of Ramses II, and her tomb in the Valley of the Queens is famous for its colorful paintings. On board, go down to the underwater observation deck and watch the coral reefs and fish through large panoramic windows without getting wet.

You can also dress up as an ancient Egyptian king or queen and take photos on a copy of Tutankhamun's throne. Then enjoy a guided snorkeling stop and explore the colorful underwater world. Life jackets and safety equipment are included.

On the way back to the marina, enjoy a 3-course meal with seafood or chicken and soft drinks. Photo and video services and personal expenses are not included.

Good to know: non-swimmers can join and see the reef from the underwater deck. Bring your passport or a copy, swimwear, a towel and sunscreen. Your exact pickup time is confirmed on WhatsApp or Telegram after booking.
