We hebben zes duiken gemaakt op het rif bij Hotel Flamenco. Het is magnifiek, een echt aquarium; zelfs met deining is er geen stroming. We waren volledig zelfstandig. We huurden wetsuits, trimvesten en ademregelaars. De uitrusting is onberispelijk en zeer goed onderhouden. Het duikcentrum is erg comfortabel, met een grote, schaduwrijke lounge waar thee en koffie worden geserveerd, grote spoeltanks voor de uitrusting en welkome douches na elke duik. We hadden vooraf contact opgenomen met het duikcentrum en bij aankomst stonden er bakken klaar om onze uitrusting in op te bergen, voorzien van onze namen. Het team is ongelooflijk vriendelijk en professioneel. Ik kan het van harte aanbevelen. Ik had het zes sterren kunnen geven, maar Google staat er maar vijf toe. Nogmaals bedankt!

Had four beautiful dives with DiveVerse. They took great care of me and had good quality gear. They offer different dive spots each day, one day I did shore dives, the other day boat dives in Mangrove bay. Loved it!

We did an Open Water Diver course with Moussa and were absolutely thrilled. Even before our arrival, our contact with Alessandra was incredibly friendly and professional, and this impression was confirmed upon arrival. Katrin gave us a wonderful welcome and took excellent care of us. The entire team is very courteous and helpful (from helping carry equipment and washing gear to serving tea). The highlight, however, was the dives with Moussa, who speaks excellent German and exudes a wonderful sense of calm and confidence. We visited several different locations and had some truly beautiful underwater experiences. In short: we'll definitely be back and highly recommend this dive center. Thank you!

Salve a tutti,siamo stati in vacanza per una settimana a Marzo 2026. Hotel non di ultima generazione ma in stile classico, nel contesto non male.Beh che dire ... Era un po' di tempo che non ci si divertiva così dentro e fuori dall'acqua. Tutto il team del diving è stato professionale a all'altezza delle aspettative gradendo molto il clima di spensieratezza,relax e accoglienza offertoci durante tutta la vacanza. Sicuramente lo consigliano a tutti e a tutti i nostri amici terracquei. Andare in acqua lo fanno tutti.... Dipende come lo fai e con chi parti ogni volta per intraprendere ogni nuova avventura in un mare meraviglioso come quello "Egittico". Grazie ancora a dive universe x la bellissima vacanza che ci avete regalato. Un abbraccio a tutto lo staff. In particolare a Ale e Lollo. Ci rivediamo presto ... Inshallah!!!

Hello everyone, we were on vacation for a week in March 2026. The hotel isn't the latest generation, but it's classic in style, and the setting isn't bad. Well, what can I say... It's been a while since we've had this much fun both in and out of the water. The entire diving team was professional and lived up to expectations, and we really appreciated the carefree, relaxing, and welcoming atmosphere we enjoyed throughout our vacation. We'd definitely recommend it to everyone, including all our landlubbers. Everyone goes in the water... It depends on how you do it and who you go with each time to embark on each new adventure in the wonderful sea of Egypt. Thanks again to dive universe for the wonderful vacation you gave us. A hug to all the staff, especially Ale and Lollo. See you soon... Inshallah!!!

Very professional diving center. Very friendly, helpful, and always available staff. German, Italian, and English are spoken fluently. Thanks to this experience, we earned two recognized certifications, allowing us to dive anywhere in the world. Thank you so much for this experience.

After 29 years, I went diving again. Instructor Ben walked us through the basics. He did a great job of keeping me calm at first (I was quite nervous). Then I did two dives with Ben. Excellent instructor. Highly recommended. And a great diving school.

Super friendly staff, great service, excellent equipment, and a cozy location to start your diving excursion. Wholehearted recommendation for anyone from the first dip into the scuba universe to experienced divers!

I highly recommend this dive center! We felt very comfortable and had a wonderful time. Everything ran smoothly, and the team was very friendly, helpful, and always in good spirits – it was a very pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. We always dived in very small groups (four divers plus a dive guide), and everyone could enjoy the dive at their own pace. Our dive guide, Ashraf, was very experienced and calm, showed us many interesting things, and made us feel safe on every dive. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to dive in a relaxed and well-cared-for environment in very small groups.

A truly fantastic dive school – highly recommended! I found it through a tip and did a total of six dives. The team is very friendly, incredibly helpful, and totally professional. Everything was perfectly organized – I felt completely at ease and will definitely be back!
