Yoga & diving holiday, Egypt
It's almost impossible to put into words how restful, life affirming and soul enhancing this yoga diving holiday at the Bedouin Moon hotel has been. The combination of learning deeply restful, energising and challenging breathing yoga techniques with diving over some of the most stunning reefs in the world I will never ever forget. (more)Penelope Granycome
The yoga was wonderful, the diving was awesome and two Bedouin children spontaneously helped me beach clean on my last day. (more)Fiona Tibbitt
This was my first visit to Egypt and the holiday was a great introduction to Dahab and diving in the region. The diving was amazing. I was the only person on the course the week I went in early April so had one-to-one diving sessions... An amazing experience and great chillout. I'll definitely be returning. (more)Tania Charles

Diving in the Red Sea & Pyramid tour
I enjoyed the day in Cairo. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. Visiting the Egyptian Museum and the Pyramids with the camel ride was unforgettable. Snorkelling in the diving in the Red Sea is magical!!! (more)Anne Deak
The highlight of our trip was Dahab. I can't imagine a more chilled location than the Bedouin style bars overlooking the red sea. (more)Sam Butterfield
This holiday is perfect for someone who wants to dive as well as getting time to take in the pyramids and other attractions around Cairo. (more)James Porter

Red Sea diving holidays
The diving was fantastic. This is definitely the place to go if you want to dive and snorkle. It’s a great location too, near the main stretch but far enough away to allow you to enjoy your peace and quiet. (more)Amanda Okill
The most memorable parts were my first dive as a qualified open water diver & being able to enjoy watching all the colourful fish and corals. (more)Jenny Tither
Excellent... Diving in the blue hole was the most memorable part. (more)Vanessa Redmond

I hope to remain fit enough to explore yet more -different/ active holiday experiences from the Responsible Travel /Eco sites area and to widen my knowledge of the World . other peoples and their culture . (more)michael jones
Scuba diving was awesome. Wonderfully friendly and helpful team. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Ahmed was a great instructor and we all loved the diving. (more)Sue Wickenden
The most memorable part of the holiday was getting my dive certificate and riding a camel into the mountains for New Year's Eve...The team is very relaxed and welcoming, but still efficient. They are fun to be around and care about the guests. (more)Sara Holden
From £445 excluding flights
Family scuba diving holidays in the Red Sea
Completely relaxing. Met some lovely people. My sons completed their open water and advanced diving courses, and enjoyed themselves without the aid of modern technology. (more)Mary Souster
Us adults as well as our late teenage kids thoroughly enjoyed the holidays...There was a large team of local staff present who created a lovely atmosphere and a warm hospitality, they were clearly happy in their employment. The Egyptian dive instructor was careful at the coral reefs and made people aware of how to prevent damage. (more)Margreta Jose
Diving through a coral maze, just me, my husband, daughters and the wonderful Kayla from the dive centre was the most exciting part. The coral corridors were truly stunning...We all said it was the best holiday we have ever had. (more)Julie Grigg

Family diving holiday in the Red Sea
Memorable parts? The whole trip was memorable but my lasting impression was how friendly, helpful and kind all the people in Dahab were. It was only our second big trip and as a single mum with a 3year old it was a leap of faith to go to a new country I knew hardly anything about. As soon as we landed I felt safe and knew I had made a great decision. The diving was very well organised, professional and the fact I could take my daughter to the dive sites made it very special. She could... (more)Katy Weir

Red Sea diving in Dahab, Egypt
Memorable parts? We did a camel safari to a dive site where we did two beautiful dives and had lunch at a Bedouin village. Tips? The diving in Dahab is absolutely spectacular, but there are also definitely other great things to do there as well - such as the camel safari which we did and also climbing Mount Sinai. We took a two day break from diving in the middle of our holiday to explore Dahab and climb Mt Sinai. It was the perfect time to do this, as we then still had another... (more)Joannne du Plessis

Learn to scuba dive in the Red Sea, Dahab
Diving the Islands was my favourite. The quad biking and evening in the desert was good too. The night sky in the desert was amazing. The staff at the Coral Coast Hotel were great, they made me a cake for my birthday and sang Happy Birthday in Arabic. They did origami arrangements with the towels. (more)Kath Beresford
The various sights on our tour Abu Simbel being the best. (more)David Dean
Dahab is fairly small, but pleasant and the locals are very friendly. You will get lots of invites into their shops and restaurants. (more)David O'Hanlon
From £490 - £515 excluding flights
Sinai camel safari & dive holiday
Most memorable moments were scuba diving the beautifully unspoiled reefs of Ras Abu Galum, stargazing at night while sipping Bedouin tea, loving the wonderful camels and letting your mind remain silent while taking in the beautifully stark and wild scenery of South Sinai. (more)Yleana Acevedo-Whitehouse
The diving was very good, especially in Ras abu galam. We were lucky to have a very good dive master and also a good guide. The camel safari was probably a highlight as it gave us an insight into how hard life is for the bedouins and how precious water is. (more)Nalini Ambiavagar
Excellent - It was the first holiday I had taken entirely on my own (no travelling companions, no group to join) and it was exciting, yet felt safe as woman in her 50's travelling alone. (more)Anon

Make sure your dive doesn’t destroy what you’ve come to see. It's a privilege to be able to enter and experience the magical underwater world. However coral reefs around the world are under extreme threat, and if we want to ensure that our kids can enjoy the same wonderful experiences then we need to dive responsibly.
