We had bad luck with the dive guide of our group, who made very questionable, partly risky decisions under water and could hardly have helped in case of an extraordinary situation. The guides of the other groups made a very professional impression. "Our guide" was summoned to talks with the chief instructor after reporting to the management and was put under supervision - bravo!

2 weeks stayed on the Elite. First the Brothers, Deadalus, Elphinstone and the 2nd week Deep South, St.Johns, Rockys, Zabargad, Fury Shoal, Elphinstone, Abu Dabab.
Very well taken care of trips. Super friendly and helpful staff. Great food. Made many beautiful dives.
Also visited the lighthouse on Deadalus and snorkeled with dolphins at Sataya.

Everything very well organized to perfection
Food .... this cook and kitchen staff deserve 5 stars on their sleeve ... top what they prepare there every day.
Captain and crew was top and very attentive
Guides and briefing very good
What I do miss on the boat is a sink for the breathers , there are 2 sinks for cameras/computers/lamps , I find the breathers just a little more important than the camera.
But otherwise very good how much I enjoyed this trip with Emperor, we will definitely come back.

We enjoyed the safari trip. the boat, cabins, food, staff and guides met our expectations.
Our only downside was the last day. instead of going to a hotel the night before departure, we stayed on board and were picked up at 9:30 in the morning and taken to a cafe in the town of Hurgarda all where we had to entertain /wait for 3 hours before being picked up again and taken to the airport. This we all felt was not a good arrangement.
Have to say that we were offered to go to a hotel the morning of departure for € 25,00. But we found this to be very short thought.
So tip, better is already the evening before departure to a hotel, this we were also used to.

South and St Johns. Good boat with very friendly and diligent crew. Great guides, wide range of dives (21 in six days). Nice dives although the last day with three dives in the same bay (with moderate visibility) was a bit boring for me.

We already did Deep-South once in 2007 (Royal Evolution), but now the number of boats/divers was disappointing. On Elphinstone I counted 73 divers at one time and when I was around another group of 15 arrived. This was different in 2007.

There were only 2 dive guides to 26 divers. Far too few because the groups were far too large.

The underwater life is still beautiful although due to the water temperature (31) in September it was to be expected that there would be few big fish.

Nitrox: this was way too low and very fluctuating between 25 and 28%. At the airport we spoke to Elite divers that they were completely out of Nitrox due to a broken compressor. The crew had to get tanks every time with zodiacs from other boats....

The cabinds were good, but there was a leak in the lounge so water had run into my "dry-back" and my logbook with 45 years of diving experience was damaged and texts and stamps no longer readable. The boat definitely needs maintenance!

A dive guide had no problem making fun of me (as an experienced diver) in front of the group during a briefing. 2 questions about safety were waved away.

The crew was very friendly and helpful: 5 stars!

Well-oiled crew and competent dive guides suitable for any level of diving experience. I really appreciated that me and my buddy had the trust of the people in charge and could therefore dive more freely and at times alone - even if this required an extra trip with the dinghy.
Will gladly book the boat and the provider again

The boat was really great. Also most of the dive sites on the tour Wreck's & Reefs were great. Only 4 dives at thistlegorm were too much. (My opinion)
The food was really great!!
Between the dives you always had time to rest. The whole crew was always more than obliging. I would book the tour again!
