From Hurghada: Nefertari Snorkeling, Lunch & Transfers

Embark on a Red Sea adventure that blends ancient Egyptian charm with modern comfort aboard the Queen Nefertari—a beautifully crafted floating replica of a royal pharaonic tomb. This extraordinary snorkeling tour from Hurghada includes hotel transfers, underwater exploration, cultural surprises, and a delicious open-buffet meal, all set against the backdrop of Egypt’s golden past.

Your journey begins with a comfortable transfer from your hotel in Hurghada to the Xanadu Marina in nearby Makadi Bay. Step aboard the Queen Nefertari and cruise toward the serene waters around Abu Hashish Island. Early in the trip, you'll descend to the underwater observation deck, where large panoramic windows reveal stunning coral reefs and colorful marine life—including turtles, rays, and, if you’re lucky, even a dugong (sea cow).

Next, enjoy a 45-minute guided snorkeling session in the crystal-clear Red Sea waters. With experienced guides by your side, both beginners and seasoned snorkelers can safely explore the reef up close.

Once you’re back on deck, the fun continues with an optional dress-up experience—don traditional pharaonic costumes, pose on King Tut’s throne, and snap unique photos worthy of royalty.

Then, sit down to a freshly prepared 3-course lunch or dinner featuring a set menu of seafood or grilled chicken. Enjoy seafood soup, fresh salads, pasta, rice, and your chosen main dish in the ship’s lavishly themed dining space.

Wrap up your trip with a relaxing 25-minute stroll around the marina and local shops before heading back to your hotel in Hurghada—ending the day with unforgettable photos and memories from one of the Red Sea’s most unique cruises.
