The cabins are large enough - unfortunately the mattresses are rock hard and the cooling is very noisy. Crew very helpful and friendly, food very good. Transfer from the airport has unfortunately not worked smoothly for us, otherwise everything is very well organized.

The transfer from the airport (Hurghada) to the ship (Port Ghalib) was suboptimal. Ultimately lasted longer than the trip HH - Hurghada. I had to wait almost 3 hours at the airport. Emergency service phone number was not available.
WiFi Connection on the ship was activated only on request and upon return to port (credit at Vodafone had to be deposited first. What took 1 week).

The liveaboard itself was great, the people great and the food mega good.
We are planning another tour in 2025.

Stellungnahme von tourmare Team
Hallo Frank W.
herzlichen Dank für Ihre Bewertung und das Sie sich Zeit dafür genommen haben! Es freut uns, dass Sie mit der Safari insgesamt zufrieden waren. Es tut uns leid, dass Sie länger am Flughafen warten mußten, das sollte so nicht sein. Wir haben mit Longimaus geprüft und uns wurde mitgeteilt, dass Sie keine Notrufnummer angerufen haben. Grundsätzlich ist auch das tourmare Team 24 Stunden erreichbar, unsere Hotline ist auf den Vouchern vermerkt. Sollten Dinge vorab nicht zu klären sein, sind wir über diese Nummer jederzeit erreichbar und können konkret helfen. Viele Grüße vom tourmare Team!

Again a relaxed week aboard the "Longi". Crew and dive guides have had a very large share in it. Thank you very much and see you next time.

Very nice dives.

The ship is outdated, price-performance ratio is not right in terms of infrastructure and service.

No WLAN, minor water leaks in bathroom, cabin can not be closed (rusty lock), very hard mattress, only 1 bath towel (also no change), no deck bags on deck because broken, cabin not clean. Atmosphere on board tense and oppressive. Forgotten bikini in cabin no longer findable (reported within 24 loss).

The cleanliness in the cabin was not so great, the beds were rock hard and the curtains hang only half inside, the rest was so a little torn out. That could be optimized. Otherwise, the vacation was mega great, great team!

The boat is unfortunately quite in the years, which is clearly visible in many places.
On the starboard side, the engine smoked very strongly, which we had to breathe in forced as the first cabin at the engine room.

The beer was very expensive (0.3 l equal to 3.00 euros!), Otherwise, there were only liter bottles of cola and paper cups, etc. ...

Offers in this price range (and partly even below) are in better shape!

Unfortunately, the air conditioning in the cabins did not always work well. Fortunately, not all cabins were occupied, so we could switch to a cabin where the AC worked a little better. But it did not run perfectly there either.

No ENOS on board.

It was our first trip with the Longimanus. The ship is O.K. although not the newest, but fully sufficient for us. The crew and both dive guides were more than accommodating and friendly. We felt well taken care of at all times.
We were very satisfied and will certainly come again.

My first safari, so no comparison possible. I felt completely comfortable and have nothing major to complain about. Comfortable 75% occupancy, dive in 2 groups, dedicated crew and guides. Is to be recommended.

This was my 3rd dive trip on the Longimanus and I was absolutely satisfied again. The Longimanus offers a lot of comfort, but is (fortunately) not one of those new luxury boats that have been around for a few years. That, coupled with the warmth of the captain and the crew, not to forget the excellent food including egyptian food. evening, results in a very high feel-good factor. The dive sites we visited were mostly beautiful (one or two of them are often not that great), the judgement of the guides on this safari was mixed (one "very good", the other too passive, both above and under water). Conclusion: As soon as corona-wise everything is again in the green area, the Longimanus stands again on my travel plan.

Unfortunately bad weather and mostly bad visibility. Problems with the drive shaft, had to go back to the repair, which did not last long. Nevertheless everyone on board made a great effort.
