What Our Customers Have To Say

Reviews from our Clients, Journalists, Photo Pro's and our own Experts

Dahab, Red Sea

1. The holiday was first class value for money. You get what you pay for, so providing you are not expecting a 5 star hotel for a cheap price; it is a very good example of a 3 star hotel. 2. The diving experience was excellent. The dive centre manager ( Rudiger) couldn’t have been more laid back and helpful. A real cool dude! 3. Pick-up and transfer was very good. My only criticism was the vehicle; it reeked of fuel fumes and made me feel very poorly. I asked them to change the vehicle for the return journey and they did so. 4. Sadly the hotel in parts is run down, there was no WIFI in the room, no TV and the shower wasn’t the best (basics really) However the staff were brilliant in every way possible, the food was very good and plenty of it and it was spotlessly clean. So the latter made up for some missing items. 5. The dive centre was a very good experience .The choice of guides were first class , I had 2 at different times, both were very experienced and knowledgeable. They knew the dive sites very well and knew where to find the best examples for the diver to see.

7 nights at the Christina Hotel in Dahab

Thank you, we had a great time both the Christiana hotel and Inmo diving were excellent. My daughter went on to take her junior advanced PADI course and she is now addicted to diving. I much appreciate you steering us to Dahab rather than Sharm which was clearly just right for us. All the best,

Mr Martin

10 nights at the Christina Hotel in Dahab

We had a fantastic holiday. The hotel was spotless and we virtually had the pool to ourselves. The diving was outstanding and the instructors and guides were brilliant. We would rate our holiday 9.5 out of 10! Thank you.

14 nights at the Christina Hotel in Dahab

We loved Dahab and our accommodation; the negatives relate to the weather not anything to do with the holiday itself. Some days were very windy, great for the wind surfers but making swimming and snorkelling difficult or impossible. It was never possible to have the recommended dinner by the sea at Nesima because of the wind. Susanna at Christina Hotel said that the climate in Dahab is changing and that November is becoming a windier and more unpredictable month. The answer seems to be to go slightly earlier. I was pleased with the original cost of the holiday. Thank you so much for sorting it out for us. The ground organisations was great – we were met as we entered the terminal building and our visas were ready so we arrived at the hotel one hour after landing. Our return trip to the airport with the same guide and driver was equally smooth. The guide, a young man whose name I do not know, was very helpful. Check-in was fine for us but possibly not for Susanna because we arrived so early. She had to get out of bed to give us a tour of the facilities and explain how things worked. It reflects well on the hotel that this welcome from a fluent English speaker was not skimped.

1 nights at the Christina Hotel with Diving at Inmo Divers

Thanks very much, we had a wonderful time and I’m very sad to be back in the cold UK! I’d like to thank you personally as well for all of your help with our booking, from the volcano situation (I expect you were quite busy over that week) through to extending our hotel and changing our transfers. It was definately worth it to stay an extra 5 days in Dahab. Our holiday with Ultimate Diving was fantastic – great price, perfect destination and everyone from the dive centre through to the hotel staff were extremely friendly, helpful and nothing was ever a problem. A very relaxing holiday with the worst part was having to fly home!

Neuhold L

11 nights at the Christina Hotel with Diving at Inmo Divers

We really enjoyed our diving holiday organised by Ultimate Diving, to Dahab, Egypt. It’s so much easier to have all the components of the holiday sorted out beforehand, by specialists. This meant all we had left to worry about was buying food and souvenirs! It was also a really good idea to ask for the visa to be sorted out in advance as it means you can jump the queues when you arrive in Egypt. The meet and greet service with the transfer was excellent and made our lives easier after the long flight. Overall we were very happy with our holiday and that we booked with Ultimate Diving.

To summarise we were happy with Ultimate Diving and found everything to be very professional and well organised. I would definitely consider using Ultimate again in the future. Thanks for all your hard work in organising quotes for us.

7 nights at Christina Hotel with Diving at Inmo Divers.

My son and I had a great holiday. The hotel was clean and comfortable and staff helpful and friendly. Inmo Dive centre was excellent. Well organised and friendly with a good standard of equipment. The dive instructor was particularly good. Thanks for organising this great holiday. Everything was exactly as we expected leaving us free to relax and enjoy the diving.

7 nights at Christina Hotel with Diving at Inmo Divers.

The Hotel Christina has friendly and helpful staff. The rooms are good in size with balconies; the hotel is positioned in an excellent location close to sea and dive centre. Breakfast was a little basic but the standard was good, especially the pancakes. Beer price was reasonable. Dinner was good, tasty and not expensive. Inmo Divers are a very established, safe, friendly and busy dive centre. Excellent value package through Ultimate Diving, much cheaper than booking it in resort. As a club (10 divers) we had two guides and freedom to choose our dive sites. They did 2 night dives. Well sorted out for Bedouin cafes/restaurants to have somewhere to sit out of the sun or sunbathe, get drinks and lunch and to keep your gear safe. Well organised, excellent hire kit if needed. The actual diving was great and the highlight for most of our group was seeing a seahorse. The transfer was in a good quality coach with safe drivers (such a change from the usual Dahab transfer). Also the rep was there immediately with the visa so we did not have to do much queuing. Overall a great club holiday.

10 Nights at Christina Hotel with diving at Inmo Divers

Excellent. As it was our first experience diving we were v impressed with the organisation, the process was great. Lovely relaxed environment. Great staff and felt v confident about the whole experience From start to finish all the staff at Ultimate Diving were very helpful both in the UK and Egypt. As this was the first time booking a holiday, of this nature, I wanted to make sure everything was right. All the staff were very helpful and had an inside knowledge into the destination and what was required. The holiday was great and it was good to see that we did receive a discount and the whole holiday worked out cheaper than booking it independently. I would highly recommend booking a diving holiday through Ultimate Diving and I look forward to using your services again in the future.

Simpson K

14 Nights at the Christina Hotel with diving at Inmo Divers

We couldn’t fault the Christina in any way. It was excellent. Inmo were in the main brilliant and very well organised. We had the best time. Mandy and I got in 23 dives each. The kids dived between 20 and 24 times each and all passed their Advanced. We were pretty well matched experience wise with the groups we were in and made some good friends. The dive master and his mate we like members of the family by the end of the holiday. We are busy saving up for the next one. How much to go back over the Christmas hols?
