About this experience

If you’re looking to swim with the dolphins but missed the opportunity to see the wild ones at Giftun Island, then consider the Dolphin House located in Hurghada!

Swimming with Dolphins in Hurghada is a special tour that takes you right up close to dolphins in their natural element and, despite its name, it is not a controlled pool location! Instead you get to see these intelligent and stunning creatures in the wild yet enjoy them voluntarily swimming close by you, playing near you, and even possibly allowing you to touch them if you’re lucky!

Guide from Egyptio will pick you up at 08.00 from your hotel in Hurghada, and transfer you to board on your boat where you will spend about 80 minutes sunbathing and relaxing. We will make stops in three different places where you can swim and explore the underwater world by snorkeling.
To see these impressive creatures swimming through the water in person is truly a marvel and is something you shouldn’t miss on your next visit to Hurghada!
