Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“Definitely would dive with Blueforce again! I booked this trip with Blueforce 3 very last minute, and I’m so glad I did! Before the trip, the team was very patient and helpful in answering all my questions. The only thing was that email replies weren’t always prompt, probably due to the time zone difference between Europe and Asia. Since I literally booked just one day before departure, I was a bit nervous—but everything worked out perfectly! The crew and dive guides were incredibly attentive, professional, and friendly, making my first liveaboard trip in the Maldives truly memorable and fun. The cabin was super comfortable—the bed and bathroom were probably even nicer than my apartment, honestly! The food was great, with lots of variety, including both local and international dishes. I especially enjoyed the Mediterranean salads. Mariano’s dive briefings were really informative, and I learned so much about the amazing marine life, which made each dive even more meaningful. The dive guides were not only professional but also genuinely passionate about what they do. Their positive energy created a great vibe on board, making the diving both fun and safe. Everyone on this trip was so friendly and amazing. I’m really happy that my first liveaboard experience in the Maldives gave me the chance to meet so many fellow diving and ocean lovers! To top it all off, at the end of the trip, the onboard videographer Rishaan made an amazing video for us as a souvenir, so we can always look back on these beautiful memories.”
