About This Tour
Most people spend 8 hours on a shared boat to reach Dolphin House. There's a better way. The **Private Speedboat to Dolphin House Hurghada** gets your group to one of the Red Sea's most extraordinary marine locations in a fraction of the time — in your own fully-equipped private speedboat, with no strangers, no fixed schedule, and no waiting. It's the most exclusive and efficient Dolphin House experience available from Hurghada. ## Why a Private Speedboat Changes Everything The standard Dolphin House group tour is a full 8-hour day on a large shared boat. Ninety minutes to get there. Ninety minutes back. Hours of waiting on deck while a guide manages 30 other guests. The private speedboat is a completely different experience. Your own high-performance speedboat travels significantly faster than a standard day boat, cutting the transit time substantially. You leave when you want (morning or afternoon departure). You move at your own pace. You snorkel when and where you want. And you're back at your hotel in just 4 hours — with the same Dolphin House reef experience, but exclusively for your group. This is the trip specifically designed for people who don't want to spend a full day on a shared boat. ## The Speedboat — Fully Equipped for Comfort Our speedboats are fully equipped for a premium private sea experience. Each boat features: - **JBL sound system** — your music, your playlist - **Freshwater shower** on board — rinse off after snorkeling - **Bimini top** for shade during the ride - **Sun deck** for sunbathing between stops - **Icebox** with cold drinks - **Electric sockets** for charging devices - **Ladder** for easy water entry and exit Your English-speaking driver guide operates the boat and leads all snorkeling, ensuring both safety and the highest possible dolphin encounter rate. ## Swim with Wild Dolphins — 2–3 Snorkeling Stops The core of the trip is exactly the same world-class experience as the full-day tour — reaching Dolphin House (Sha'ab El Erg), where the resident spinner dolphin pod lives year-round, and entering the water to snorkel alongside them. With the faster speedboat, your group arrives with more energy and more time in the water. The guide leads **2–3 snorkeling stops** — Dolphin House for the dolphin encounter, plus at least one additional pristine reef stop where you can explore coral towers, exotic fish, manta rays, and the extraordinary diversity of the National Park's protected reefs. All snorkeling equipment is provided on board. ## Two Departure Options — Morning or Afternoon The private speedboat offers two daily departure windows to suit your schedule: **Morning trip:** Pickup around 8:00 AM — return around 1:00 PM **Afternoon trip:** Pickup around 12:30 PM — return around 5:30 PM Both windows give your group the full 4-hour private speedboat Dolphin House experience. The morning departure targets peak dolphin activity hours; the afternoon departure suits guests who prefer a later start or have morning plans. ## Who Is the Private Speedboat Perfect For? - **Couples and small groups** who want the Dolphin House experience without sharing it with 30 strangers - **Time-conscious travellers** who can't spend a full day on a boat - **People who get seasick** on larger, slower boats (speedboats cut through waves more smoothly) - **Photography enthusiasts** who want uninterrupted access to the water and the dolphins - **Returning visitors** to Hurghada who have done the group tour and want the premium version - **Anyone** who values privacy and flexibility over cost savings ## Price — Per Group, Not Per Person At **€150 per group** for 1–4 people (contact us for groups of 5–8), the private speedboat is outstanding value when split between two to four people — often cheaper per person than you'd expect, and incomparably more exclusive than the shared group alternative. National Park admission fees, snorkeling equipment, soft drinks, hotel pickup and return, and English-speaking guide are all included.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the price of the Private Speedboat to Dolphin House?
€150 total for groups of 1–4 people — this is a per-group price, not per person. For groups of 5–8 people, contact us for pricing. The price includes the private speedboat, English-speaking guide, hotel pickup and return, National Park fees, 2–3 snorkeling stops with equipment, and soft drinks.
How is the private speedboat different from the group Dolphin House tour?
The group tour takes 8 hours on a shared boat with up to 30 other guests. The private speedboat is 4 hours, exclusively for your group, with a faster journey time, flexible schedule (morning or afternoon), and no sharing. It's the premium, time-efficient version of the same Dolphin House dolphin encounter experience.
How fast is the speedboat compared to a standard day boat?
Our speedboats are high-performance vessels that travel significantly faster than standard day tour boats. What takes 90 minutes on a group boat takes considerably less on the speedboat — giving you more time at the reef and less time in transit.
What equipment does the speedboat have?
Each private speedboat features a JBL sound system (bring your playlist), freshwater shower, Bimini top for shade, sun deck, icebox, electric sockets, and a ladder for easy water entry and exit.
Can I see dolphins on the private speedboat trip?
Dolphin House (Sha'ab El Erg) is the same location visited by the group Dolphin House tour, with the same resident spinner dolphin pod and the same high encounter rate (approximately 90% of trips). The private speedboat gives your group undisturbed, unshared time in the water when dolphins are present.
What are the departure times for the private speedboat?
Two departure options: morning (hotel pickup around 8:00 AM, return by 1:00 PM) or afternoon (hotel pickup around 12:30 PM, return by 5:30 PM). Both options provide the full 4-hour private speedboat Dolphin House experience.
Is the private speedboat suitable for people prone to seasickness?
High-speed boats cut through waves more efficiently than large, slow-moving day boats, which many guests find results in less motion sickness. The shorter duration (4 hours vs 8) also helps. The open sea between Hurghada and Dolphin House can have some chop — bring seasickness medication if you are particularly sensitive.
