Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“One of the best dive experience! First of all I would like to thank the whole crew for an amazing trip and an experience. Everyone was very attentive, respectful, and very fun to be around! I have always felt safe during our dives as dive master was very attentive. Some of the dives for me was bit challenging, but the dive master, Willy, always had a positive attitude and supported me as well as others during our dives to have the best experience possible. And needless to say the food during the 5 day trip was amazing. I think it was the most delicious food I had including Bali and Labuan Bajo. The trip was very organized and flexible to make sure we were having a best time while maintaining safety. If opportunity arises, I would love to and hope to join them again for an other trips!! Also all the people we met were all so friendly and fun! Which was a blessing and made our stay even better.”
Recommended for: Great crew member. Amazing scuba dive. Fantastic food.
