Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“The boat and crew far exceeded our expectations. The liveaboard experience was excellent. Wooden boats are different than steel hull boats, and Amira performed beautifully as a dive boat. The meals had something for everyone (including peanut butter and Nutella :-) and the seafood was outstanding. Diving and snorkeling was problem free, with easy access to great sites. As we sometimes sailed near and observed other boats, it was easy to be proud to be on Amira!”
Recommended for: 1) The boat, Amira, is large and very comfortable in every way. 2) The crew, both on board and in the Zodiacs, were unexceptionally helpful. 3) The other guests were pleased with their experiences.
Customer Review By Thomas V, from: United States scored the Amira 10 out of 10; Review courtesy of Liveaboard.com, for all 8 reviews and information click here: Amira .
