Thank you so much for the excursions. We were there in April, and went on a private mini-group tour to Ras Mohammed, on ATVs, and to Mount Moses. Everything was fantastic, we loved it all, and it left us with unforgettable impressions and emotions! The guides were beyond praise!
Valeria –
We also really enjoyed the yacht. The dive was especially memorable: there were so many beautiful fish underwater, and the experience was truly unforgettable. White Island truly reminds me of the Maldives—light sand, clear water, and a beautiful scenery all around.
Overall, the trip was wonderful: the sea, the views, the fish, and the relaxing atmosphere—everything was fantastic.

My girls returned from their excursion today absolutely thrilled. They’re not just happy, they’re overwhelmed with emotion. We went diving twice, reached the very bottom, and saw stunning beauty that words can’t describe. We absolutely loved White Island; it was so beautiful. Thank you so much again, and see you soon
Yuri –
We went on two excursions: a family boat trip and an ATV trip with my son. * We loved everything, from the messaging to the organization; there was nothing to complain about. Great job! No need to pay in advance; you pay on the spot. Of course, they always try to upsell you, but that’s Egypt, and that’s part of the fun. Thanks for organizing!
Marina –
Good afternoon! Yes, I loved everything. This is my third time on this excursion, but this was my first time scuba diving. It was incredible, my sister was absolutely shocked. You guys are absolutely amazing! Thank you so much!
Ekaterina –
Thank you too! I’ll recommend you!
Anton –
Everything’s fine, I liked it.
Konstantin –
This is my second time in Egypt, and I’m having a fantastic time with Walid from Sheikh Travel. You can completely trust these wonderful people; they’re incredibly caring and responsive, and overall, you’ll have an incredible experience. So, if you’re choosing between companies, rest assured that you won’t find a better balance of service and experience anywhere else

Good evening, Irina. Thank you and your team so much for this day. Everything from the organization and execution of the event was top-notch (compared to our previous experience). You booked, sent all the details, and warned us that the driver might be delayed. The driver sent his geolocation this morning so we could see him, but he arrived on time anyway. His appearance, driving style, and car… Only afterward did we realize your organization is better than the one we used for the ATV ride! And I think if we had gone with you on the ATVs, it would have been a different trip. The crew on the boat are great! Everyone is friendly and helpful. The diving instructors are excellent. My men immediately liked them and weren’t even nervous before the dive. Special respect and admiration to them! The cook, photographer, and the guys who assisted the captain worked together as a team. It’s clear that everyone works well together and does everything conscientiously. We bought photos and wrote out a check. Everything is official, and it’s clear that you value your reputation not only in words but also in actions. My only wish would be for music to be played on the yacht (it would be more fun) and for life jackets to be provided free of charge (after all, this is a requirement on a sailing vessel). My daughter really liked Shark (she said it was obvious he was very kind). Thank you so much. You are the best organization we encountered in Egypt. If we ever come to Egypt again, we will only come to you for excursions.

Thank you so much for two perfectly organized days! Everything was smooth, on time, and effortless.
Impressive landscapes, a beautiful coastline, and a sense of wilderness. And in the evening, a complete contrast: ATVs across the sand, a camel ride, a Bedouin-style dinner, and a fantastic fire show. We really enjoyed this change of pace in one day.
We swam to our heart’s content today and enjoyed the sea. The yacht was comfortable, there were plenty of stops for swimming, and White Island is truly incredible, with turquoise water and snow-white sand. A wonderful, relaxing day.
Special thanks to the guides—they were always available, explained everything, and didn’t rush us. We’re so glad we chose you!

Good afternoon!!
It was excellent—we absolutely loved it, especially the diving. The instructor was such a sweetheart and made us feel completely at ease; even though it was the first time for both my friend and me—and we were really nervous beforehand—he was incredibly supportive and lovely, so everything went great!
Thank you so much ❤️
