Please add the item „hotel pick up“ (by our free shuttle bus) to the dive package or diving course booking.
For our divers, who do not stay in the Arabia, Arabella or Bel Air Hotel, we offer a free pick up service from the booked hotel / private accommodation. However, this service does not apply to hotels /private accommodations in Makadi Bay, Sahl Hasheesh and El Gouna, but includes all hotels / private accommodations in the area of Hurghada City. Depending on the location of the hotel / private accommodation, we plan the daily pick-ups of your diving holiday individually here on site. A corresponding list is available every day in our office.
The return to the surrounding hotels start at the base from 5 pm and are offered every half an hour. The last return trip takes place at the closure of the diving center, so depending on the season between 6 and 8 pm.
For participants in special tours (for example, earlier departure for wreck diving or later departure for night diving) we offer a timed pick up and return to the hotels.
The first pick-up for diving takes place in the morning of the first day of diving (usually beginner trip). If you have booked a diving course, you will be asked to pick you up for the afternoon of the day after your arrival, so that the details of the course can be discussed at the diving school. Here, the course documents and the diving equipment can be issued before the course starts.

Question: Which wrecks will be chosen for this kind of specialty?
Answer: Close to Hurghada and further north (eg Abu Nuhas) we have a variety of wrecks which can be chosen for the Wreck Diver specialty. Since we are often dependent on wind and weather, we can not determine the wrecks in advance. Attention: Surcharges for the wreck tours are not included!
Question: If the special tour can not take place as planned, what will be approached instead?
Answer: In this case we do a normal full day tour with 2 dives. The surcharge for the special tour will not be charged. However, if you make 1 dive on the wreck, the surcharge is charged normally.
Question: I have a sensitive stomach. Are those special tours meant to be for me?
Answer: Normally, we do those special tours only during still air conditions. At our office we are offering a well-tolerated medicine for divers with a sensitive stomach.
