Karin Bäuerle

Managing Director CEO, Tour guide, Administration

Born in Winterthur, Switzerland. Grew up in a small village in the canton of Thurgau. Two grown-up sons.

Apprenticeship as a nurse. Diploma in palliative care, university degree in psychological competence in communication. The desire to help people was there from an early age. I have been supporting and caring for mentally and physically ill people for over 20 years.

As a former managing director and accountant of a company in Switzerland, I have the necessary expertise to run a company.

I love discovering foreign countries and cultures, so I travelled to Hurghada Egypt for the first time in 2021. I immediately fell in love with the country, the people and the Red Sea. Even as a child, I was magically drawn to the sea and its inhabitants. I discovered my love for nature and its protection at an early age. Empathy, openness and communication characterise me. At the beginning of 2023, I took the definitive step of moving from Switzerland to Hurghada and founded the company “Karin Star”.

Mansour Eltayeb

Operations Manager, Snorkeling guide PADI, Freediving

Born and raised in Luxor, Egypt. Two children. I completed the military and worked as a craftsman and electrician.

In 2012 I moved to the sea, to Hurghada. I trained to become a licensed snorkelling guide and diving instructor. Freediving is my passion. With now 12 years of experience in water activities, I am the ideal partner for the tours.

Passion and protection of the sea characterise me.

Reliability and safety of the guests are my top priorities.

Dear guests, we look forward to seeing you! Dive with us into the paradisiacal underwater world of the Red Sea!
