Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“Our first Liveabord was fantastic! My wife and I recently embarked on a diving journey with Discovery II, and it was nothing short of spectacular. The staff were not only friendly but extremely professional, enhancing our experience with their attentive service. A highlight of our trip was the surprise anniversary cake they prepared for us, a thoughtful gesture that really made our celebration special. Throughout our stay, we had the opportunity to dive with different guides, each bringing their own expertise and charm to the dives. This variety enriched our underwater adventures and made us feel very well cared for. We are already planning our next dive in the Red Sea and without a doubt, we'll be booking with Discovery II again. For anyone looking for a top-notch diving experience, I highly recommend this team.”
