Anyone know of a tour operator that does one week liveraboard and a week shorebased.

Must be rebreather friendly dive boat.

Looking at next April or May

try regaldive/emperor fleet (speak to Lynn at Regaldive, Stefanie at Emperor)

regaldive can sort out the package and combine with Thompson Fly who give good baggage allowances (well cheapish prebought excess) and Emperor apparently have lime on board and you pay by the kilo not the keg; have stages and can boost

I say apparently as I havnt been yet - thats November

My wife and I stayed with Emperor for four weeks this spring, diving CCR both on day-trips and a one week liveaboard. For day-trips we got 200 bar oxygen, but the liveaboard did not have a booster (decanting).

For CCR diving it is actually Tekstreme, who share office with Emperor, who organize equipment and gas. In our experience they are all very friendly and
professional.

I have heard comments about there being cheaper options, but we plan to continue using Emperor/Tekstreme.

Shorebased or Liveaboard, I always use Emperor / Tekstreme in Egypt; great CCR support, excellent boats.
