Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“Fantastic experience from beginning to end just perfect. Ras Mohammed & SS Thistlegorm, making new friendships and most of all spending quality time with my daughter diving. The crew were so helpful and friendly we didn't have to lift a finger from arrival to departure Emperor Diver are amazing. Clever Captain and guides avoided the crowds and gave us all the experience to remember. Completely honest all costs inclusive and unlimited food and drink just fab, the food was just amazing from the chefs. The Emperor Asmaa is a lovely ship with all internal spaces air conditioned and great sun cover. 22 dives, inc 5 night dives in one week Don't think about it just book it you will not be disappointed for any level of experience.”
