We had a great week on the South Tour!
Everything worked out wonderfully! I wouldn't want to exclude anyone from the crew - everyone did their best.

There was nothing wrong with the boat. The staff were very friendly and courteous and I think they deserve special mention. All in all, a very nice vacation, which really offered a lot for the price. Great sightings of hammerhead sharks, longimanus, manta rays etc.

It was the first safari for my two boys and me and it was SENSATIONAL! An upgrade of the dive spots, excellent food, a fantastic boat and the super friendly crew rounded off the week. The guides and briefing were professional and we were also lucky enough to see big fish (hammerhead sharks, longimanus, silky sharks and a leopard ray). The trip => absolutely recommendable!

A St Johns tour had been booked and confirmed.
5 days before departure I received the information that not only Rock/Zabargad-Daedalus would be visited, but possibly also St Johns. So the tour was completely changed.
No Um Chararim, no St Johnes Caves, no Fury Shoals
What a pity. I am very disappointed as this route really offered something different to what I had actually booked.

Beautiful new boat, with an experienced and attentive crew, nice and relaxed guides with lots of experience. There is always a helping hand on hand. Great route, absolutely recommendable.
There was too much rather than too little food and of good quality, quite varied.

I had a really nice and eventful vacation that couldn't have been better. My dive guide Tarek was super nice, experienced and made the most of every dive. The crew on board also deserve absolute praise. I would especially like to mention Hassan, who was very attentive and was immediately on hand to get me into my wetsuit! ????
A big thank you!!! I would definitely travel with the Blue Fleet again in a heartbeat.

I've probably been diving with groups around 30 times. But this was the absolute highlight. Not necessarily from the divespots, but here the dive guides were also very active to show us the best possible everywhere. The boat was awesome. The crew were really great, friendly and super helpful. The food was out of this world and the cabins were the most exclusive I have ever had on a dive trip.
I can only recommend both the ship and the whole crew.
Many thanks for everything.

The 3rd New Year's Eve trip in a row again brought interesting dives and fun among the guests. We brought the New Year's Eve forward to 21:00, as we had to get up early again on New Year's Day.
The crew did a great job again, even though - or perhaps because - it was the last trip of the season.
The New Year's Eve buffet was once again unique and the birthday cake gets bigger every year.
A new feature is that the crew hang up the suits after the dive and put them back on the tank in time for the next dive.
As a freezing guest, you can get warm more quickly.
There was an unpleasant dispute with the two guides Hassan and Tarek at Daedalus Reef.
The afternoon dive on the first day at Daedalus Reef gave us a good shake-up. Sometimes there were falling currents and we quickly found ourselves at 30 meters.
On the morning of the second day on the reef, Tarek gave us the choice of repeating the afternoon dive, with the "risk" of getting caught in strong currents again.
Alternatively, we could also set course for Elphinstone after the 2nd dive around midday. The majority of 11 guests (out of 19) opted for this. 6 guests were ready for a drift dive and the remaining two didn't care.
After the 2nd dive, Tarek told us that we would stay at Daedalus as the decision was not unanimous.
When the guests protested, he ended the discussion with "We're sticking to the plan!"
On the other hand, the next day at Elphinstone. Here the trip to Abu Dabab was continued WITHOUT coordination or consultation after the 2nd dive (3 dives according to the plan).
Another negative point was the behavior when the guests asked for the lifejackets.
According to the boat briefing, these should be stowed on the bridge. However, we saw the sleeping area of a crew member there.
Only after a heated discussion were the lifejackets laid out on the high deck for us to inspect.
Reason: The lifejackets were additionally protected from salt water by a tarpaulin and could therefore not be seen immediately.
The question remains as to how 32 vests are enough for a maximum of 24 guests + 2 guides + 14 crew?
Oh well, the crew must have their own vests ;-)

In the end, both guides skipped the last dive of the safari at Abu Dabab, so that the guests could/must dive alone in a buddy team.

Now a few general words.
The reception and collection by a Blue Planet employee before passport control did not work again. I had to get the visa myself at the bank counter and then waited another 40 minutes for the person collecting it.
During the subsequent transfer through the night from Hurghada to Port Ghalib, the driver constantly had his smartphone in his hand and then drove at excessive speed (140 km/h). I'm used to a lot from Egypt, but that was borderline.
I also noticed that he was using his phone while driving on the way back to the airport. But here it was daytime.

Cabins: the floor could have been cleaned more often.
Food: delicious, even if there was rice every day
Dive guides: the chief guide was rather unmotivated; was often the first one back on the boat
Dive spots: often several dives on the same reef; e.g. 3 dives in a row at Marsa Shouna

Brother Islands and Daedalus Reef:
There were so many dive boats at the dive sites that about 350 divers were diving there in 2 hours.
The first group was usually successful in seeing sharks. The following dive groups were often not :-(
It seemed to me that the dive sites were overcrowded, which clearly detracted from the experience.

The dive guides and crew were great!!!

Unfortunately, I was not aware of how much the dive sites are overrun by liveaboard boats. Over 20 boats with yes 20 divers, mostly in the water at the same time, plus the Zodiacs... what a burden on the environment. Not to mention the fecal tanks that are discharged directly into the sea.
I can not reconcile such tourism sponges with my conscience.

Detailed tour report Blue Storm
We were on the Blue Storm from 14 - 21.9
First of all the many good impressions from us.
After initial problems with the flight with Marabu-Airline we landed in Hurghada with a delay of about 3 hours, we were lucky and could at least fly with them, about a third of 200 passengers did not fare so well and had to stay in Munich (plane broke down and had to switch to a smaller plane).
Nevertheless, we were picked up as agreed at the airport and all visa formalities were completed.
Transfer was totally ok, enough space for divers and luggage.
After about 3 hours we arrived in Port Galib.
There it was already approx. 24.00h, nevertheless there was after short administrative and the cabin allocation still a warm dinner for the last ones who came on board.
Afterwards a tour on board. The Blue Storm is a relatively new, very nice, clean and technically very good boat, although a bit twisty, but that is a matter of taste.
Fortunately, we still unpacked and assembled the dive gear, then already the first shock ... my inflator / folding hose has landed when packing next to the Tassche and was left at home.
Still in the night one of the tour guides has organized a suitable jacket and it was the next morning already on board....
The next day we went to the Jackdive... 2 dives in Marsa trombi.
In the night then the crossing on the Small brother", 2 TG Small and one Big Brother
Then also the night crossing to the Dedalus, where we stayed 2 days and thus 6 dives, with both we had luck with the messengers and there were maximally 4 further there
Also with the hammerhead sharks at Dedalus we had a lot of luck
After that we went for 2 dives to the Elphinstone and at noon we went back to Abu dabab.
On the last day two more dives in Marsa Shouna, which were not very exhilarating.
(would have been perhaps differently evaluated with sighting of the manatee)
The diving in general was well organized, everything very safe, and the dive guides are competent.
On board everything has been very to our satisfaction, cabins clean, food was very good and plentiful, crew very helpful and courteous
Now to the hopefully constructive negative part....
Firstly, the boats are no longer allowed to stay overnight on Brother Island, so only 1 day of diving on the Brothers is possible, this is neither the fault of the boat nor the company, but supposedly the law!!! should perhaps just be better communicated after all we also have to pay a lot of fees for the National Park
Secondly, and this annoys me actually the most, were again divers with 11 dives on the tour!!! (all very nice, but still beginners) Anyone who has been on the Brothers, knows that this can be very dangerous, (mandatory are at least 50 TG) which leads to some dives were not made, officially because of current, but was already often enough on the Brothers that I can judge. Also at Elphinstone the TG at the north plateau was not made....
Again, the fault is not with the boat or the crew, what should they do, not let people dive???
To what extent this can be influenced by the company, I do not know, but the fault lies clearly with the agencies that arrange the trips and do not communicate or control it sufficiently.
Last point of criticism was at the supply... here the crap from the boxes was simply thrown into the harbor basin by the supply drivers..... probably it will have no effect to point out the drivers to the protection of the sea .... But who knows maybe miracles happen....
Conclusion... nice week, but had the first time the feeling that one week is enough,
due to the fact that brother but can only be dived on one day I will probably not make the tour again so quickly ...

Something unfortunate was that although the ship was recently overhauled, that
- in the bathroom the base cabinet was old
- the cabinet door in the cabin held only with cable ties
- the door to the cabin was difficult to open because the door handle was hardly "in function".
- also it would be desirable that in sink proximity still "swell fixed" storage space would be created.

We had a super week on the Blue Storm and saw hammerheads up close at Daedalus, grey reef sharks, a thresher shark and two longimanus (but one of them only from the boat :-). We also had a Spanish dancer on the night dive, octopus etc.
The crew is great, very helpful, and the guides are also top. One of them was diving too fast for my taste and could have turned around more often after his group, therefore one star deduction here. The size of the dive group should be smaller (2 guides for 13 divers).
The food was consistently good, the snacks as well.
The ship is big and you have a lot of space! Individual improvements could of course be made and I have also passed directly to the guide.

- on the homepage of Liveaboard 18 TG are indicated, but we could make a maximum of 16 TG
- there were 3 guides on board, one was booked privately, the 16 remaining divers were distributed to the other two, we were in a group with 10 other divers, do not know how this is handled on other boats, found the group clearly too large especially if you want to take pictures or videos
- of the 16 TG we did 9 in Daedelus
- Elphinstone was cancelled in favor of Daedelus. An alibi vote was taken, Darwish, one of the guides, had suggested to stay one day longer in Daedelus and skip Elphinstone because there is nothing to see there.
The first vote was for Elphinstone, but the crew wanted to stay in Daedelus and it was voted again.

At the 3rd safari with the Blue Storm within 1 year I was already familiar with many processes.
I found it alarming how my guide concentrated more on his own diving and less the group has held together.

Great boat, slightly smaller than the big sister the Blue. Cabins, food and service absolutely top as always with Blueplanet. Dive guides were great, especially Ashraf, who accompanied the Tec divers was 1A.
The Blue fleet is to be recommended without reservation.

1st cabin #6 with emergency exit. Unfortunately, there was smoking behind the door. I as a non-smoker felt massively bothered by the smoke, which pulled into my bunk.
2nd dive guides were very good. I missed the second guide when a group of almost 10 people swam after a guide who still had to keep an eye on his trainee diver. At the same time 2 guides stayed on the boat. Here it would be nice if smaller groups were guided. Safety was always there thanks to very experienced divers. When a large group approaches an object it is gone until the last one was there.......

The boat is in a generally very good condition. What was very poor, however, was the very poor wireless connection of the boat, if you write out WLAN, or offers it MUST also work and not just a bit!!!! That had me really really annoyed !!!

Fantastic upscale safari boat, perfect service, super good sypamtic local guides. Beautiful coyen, some with mini balcony (main & upper deck) enough space despite full occupancy. Good sound diving breefings, grouping by level, experience. BDE tour perfect for shark sighting, had great luck, hammerheads, longimani and even manta. Good varied cuisine even for vegetarians and allergy sufferers, crew makes great effort and it was always good and very tasty, even a BBQ was arranged on the Uperdeck and the meat eaters had raved. Conclusion: a very good great boat, definitely happy to visit again. As a small note, a DEFI on board would be highly recommended as well as a bottle at 5m under the boat, so in this area unfortunately not the full stars / points.

Everything so far great.
Dive boats as usual good.
The food was very good - the two dinners on the upper deck top class.
The crew was super helpful - really mega.

The cabins were not cleanly cleaned. Zb with me in the cabin in the toilet a dirty template on the floor, on the hook still the wet bath towel of the previous guest. With a friend of mine in the tooth glass still the used dental floss of the predecessor, and every time after cleaning he had the hair of the woman from the neighboring cabin in his cabin.
Hygiene on board, there you can make yourselves selbe a picture as conclusion;
of 20 guests on board = 12 st diarrhea strong and tlw nausea, Corona outbreak on board of the guests min 3 st . Ie from 20 guests only max. 5 were spared. From the staff I know only that the captain was also positive ...............
They have created on the ship zero precautions of hygiene after the incidents. It also seemed to me that there was "no boss" on the ship.
In a cabin lay a guest three days with fever 39-40 degrees, which went sick from board .........and two-three hours later, this cabin is referred by a new guest........without words

Has nothing to do with the ship, you notice in the red sea that the reefs suffer, as elsewhere. Fish abundance is - unfortunately - also declining somewhat.

The lower deck cabins are very small. A shelf in the area of the bed is not available (glasses, bottle of water, smarthphone). No comparison with the Blue although the Blue Storm is newer

Brothers Daedalus Ephinstone Safari July 2022

Beautiful ship with great cabins and plenty of room to sit and lay on the decks. The service of the crew is awesome, can't be better. Starting with the super delicious food to the helpfulness of the crew when diving. ENOS would still be good and maybe a little more info on safety precautions.
Diver's luck, hardly any ships on the reefs, well planned dives, no diver's soup. Hammerheads and mantas at Daedalus and Longimanus at Elphinstone. Reefs as always beautiful especially at the Brothers.

Very nice ship, super crew, staff and guide.
Upper deck cabin not too small and recommended at any time even with separate beds.
Advantage of the upper deck cabin is the beautiful balcony. Kitchen very good and was missing something, was immediately jumped. For safety 1* less, because for this category ENOS should already be standard. Perfect week on the Blue Storm.

It was a great trip! The cabin on the Blue Storm was nicely furnished, but a bit cramped.
The food was always great and very fresh. There is something for everyone at the buffet.
The dive deck is well sorted and everything has its place - also enough space. Good briefings and regulated, routine procedures during the dives. It was a lot of fun!

A pretty perfect trip. Unfortunately, there were too many boats at once at the spots, so it was not always so relaxed under water. Otherwise, always happy to do it again!

More storage in the 2-person cabin (#8) would be helpful (e.g., high cabinet); one of the guides still seemed quite inexperienced/insecure in dealing with the group.
Visibility on most dives was exceptionally poor; (no one can help that) so it is hard for me to rate the dive sites.

The safari ship sets new standards on the Red Sea.
The cabins offer enough space for 2 people.
The bathroom has a separate shower area with rain shower.
On the beds are no flat foam pads, but full mattresses.
The crew is always helpful without being intrusive.
The cuisine is worthy of any 5-star hotel. The New Year's Eve buffet and the New Year's BBQ on the high deck cannot be described in words.
Despite the swell, the MY Blue Storm is quiet and seasickness was not a problem.
Only the aircon is a bit loud at night.

Corals ok to good, unfortunately the lower animals are missing and the fish population is extremely low. I have been diving in the Red Sea for over 30 years and I have never seen it so empty.

Very nice, new and spacious ship. Great cabins. The crew is TOP in every area. Wishes are read from the eyes. Food and the special dinners on deck are a dream. What the guys do for an effort so that the eye also eats is fantastic.
Safety is very important here.
The guides are very professional and I felt in good hands at all times.
