The decking is teak wood and all the interior spaces are tastefully furnished in oak and mahogany and are comfortable. You can hang out in the large air conditioned lounge and dining room on the main deck which comes complete with full multimedia entertainment, free internet facility, and even a bar for those post dive tipples. This is the main social spot on the boat, as well as the partially shaded sundeck which suits sun bathers and shade-seekers alike.
At 34 metres long, MY Excellence boasts a huge dive deck where there is always plenty of room for kitting up, preparing for dives on air, nitrox or with rebreathers. Spacious, comfortable and stylish, MY Excellence excels among Egypt's liveaboard dive charters based in Hurghada.

Special offers: For special discounted prices, check the yellow highlighted trips in the schedule above.
Dive experience: Recommended on the Red Sea liveaboard cruises: North & Wrecks safaris - Open Water diver license and 20 logged dives; for St. Johns Reefs safaris - Open Water diver license and 30 logged dives; for Sudan, Brothers, Daedalus Reef & Elphinstone safaris - Advanced Open Water diver license and 50 logged dives.
Cruise price per person includes: Cabin accommodation with air-conditioning, breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, soft drinks, water and hot drinks (e.g. instant coffee, tea), dives (as detailed in the trips above), port and park fees, nitrox fills for enriched air certified divers (Egypt trips only), experienced English-speaking divemaster(s) (8 divers per DM), tanks, weights and weightbelts, return transfers - boat-airport.
Cruise price per person excludes (mandatory, unless customer provides own): Scuba equipment (incl. dive computer or torch, US$ 213 per week), diving insurance. For Sudan trips - entry visa (US$ 155, or US$ 205 for USA nationals - in new bank notes), Sudanese taxes (US$ 195 for 1 week), fuel surcharge and taxes (US$ 100 for 1 week). Unless otherwise stated, all the listed items need to be paid on arrival (cash or credit card).
Optional extras: Alcoholic drinks, torch (US$ 49 per week), 15 litre tank (US$ 49 per week), nitrox fills for enriched air certified divers (Sudan trips only - US$ 85 per week).
Unless otherwise stated, all the listed items need to be paid on arrival.
How to get there: Egypt trips: MY Excellence departs from Hurghada and Port Ghalib, and return transfers from local airports to the departure point can be arranged. Check in time starts at 5 pm on the first day (boat departs the next morning). Check out before 10 am on the last day (last night usually on the boat in the harbour). Late arrivals or early departures can be arranged. For more details see our travel information section for the Red Sea.
Sudan trips: Excellence departs from Port Sudan for Sudan liveaboard trips. There are flights from Cairo to Port Sudan with Egypt Air and Sudan Airways. This is a much easier route than flying into Khartoum. Included in the Sudan visa fee are return transfers from Port Sudan to the departure point.
The last dive of the trip will be at around 13:00 hrs noon on the second last day of the trip. Please wait at least 18 hours before flying after diving.
Non-diver rate: 5-10% off the published price. Depends on season and request.
Single supplement (if you do not want to share accommodation): This is optional - single travellers may choose to share a cabin or pay a supplement of 80% of the published price.
Dive clubs and group discounts: Pay for 7 guests and 1 extra person can join the cruise in a standard cabin free of charge.
Whole boat charter rate (per night): Please ask us for details.
Add-on package: If you have time, we strongly recommend that you consider some of the wonderful antiquities tours in Egypt which can add a whole new dimension to your holiday. Cairo museum's royal mummies, the pyramids of Giza, the Great Sphinx, a glorious cruise down the Nile staying in a luxury cabin, The Valley of the Kings, all of these and more can be seen in packages starting at 6 nights' duration.
