Hurghada: Orange Bay, Snorkeling, Watersports, Lunch & Drinks

Only 1h in orange bay but 2h promise in réservation, why ? Départ marina at 10h30, pick up 7h , why ? Not soda in board only water, why ? And just 1 fun activity (banana) We are sad...

Well, I scheduled the experience for 08h30, the company call me asking me to be at 07h30 because the hotel was far and the boat will leave at 09h00. The driver arrived at 08h05, 35m delay, we arrived to the boat moreless at 08h45m. We stayed stopped until 10h05, the time the boat left, at about 11h00 the boat stopped and it stayed stopped for more than an 1 hour, I asked a crew member what was happening and he told me that there was a mechanic issue and the captain was trying to fix, we just arrive at orange bay at 13h50, left at 15h15, the return time was scheduled to be at 16h30, because of the delay only one stopped for snorkeling was made (moreless 30m) which in my opinion was very short, because I think this is the best part of this experience. Orange Bay island for me was a disappointment, lot of people, very commercial, the crystal-clear waters are at the beginning where the water level reached your knees, if you go a litle further there's no visibility because the water as a lot of sand mixed in. The clear waters are where the boats stop, in my opinion would be better to dive from the boat, the island is only worth if you really want to post a photo on you'r social media app.

It was 8:45 when I arrived, even though it was pick-up time 8:15. When I arrived on the ferry, my passport was taken. It wasn't yesterday's tour. And a $50 bill for the tour. I don't understand. You've paid for the tour through this app, and $50 is too expensive to scam? So much so that I thought, "Wow. Even if I tell him I've paid him, he's overbearing me to give me $50. Of course I didn't pay, but they didn't apologize. I was aware of the entrance fee of 290 Egyptian pounds, but I was going to give him 300 pounds and get around 10 pounds, but he said no. I don't understand. He eventually told me he would pay later, and when I said it at the end, he finally paid. At the end of the tour, he asked me to tip him and he stood there for a while in front of me. It was too uncomfortable. The snorkeling itself was good, though! The response from the staff was terrible.
