Great Liveaboard for long Trips
Have been in Raja Ampat on La Galigo for a 12 day Trip. I can absolutely recommend the boat for anyone looking for a well run dive boat. Surya (our Cuise Director) and his crew took really good care of us, the food was really tasty and plentiful, the rooms were spacious enough with shelves and cupboards, the shower/bathroom were clean. Everything was organized really good, the dive briefings were on point and not too long, and you noticed that the crew is really customer oriented. My luggage was delivered late by the airline I flew with, and the Team did everything to make sure I would get my bags as fast as possible. Thanks again to the team, it was a wonderful trip.

Great experience
I boarded La Garigo in August, and it was an amazing experience. The boat crew and dive staff were always kind and friendly, and the cabin deck, rooms, and dining area were immaculately cleaned every day. The boat moved slowly and quietly, and it was as comfortable as a cradle. While this may not be enough for adventurous divers, the crew always prioritizes the safety of their guests and never pushes them too hard. The crew checked the currents at each dive. Groups of up to four people were divided by skill level, and the guides and crew always looked out for them. A wide variety of dive spots were planned for each dive, so we never got bored. There were also days when we went to macro-points, so photographers would recommend private guides. The meals were varied and one of the highlights of this trip. They also catered to vegetarians and vegans. A different healthy drink was provided after each dive, which was also a pleasure. Overall, it was a fun eight days, every day.

Remarkable Raja Ampat
The La Galigo crew and the Raja Ampat 12 day destination was a remarkable scuba diving trip. The dive sites and itinerary was exceptional and we were fortunate to see so much of the beauty and wildlife that Raja Ampat is famous for. I enjoyed the food each day and felt that the crew overall - from dive guides, to cook staff, engineers and the deck crew were very professional and kind. I think this is a trip that redefines my goals for scuba trips going forward. I recommend La Galigo to others and hope they enjoy it as much as we did!

My 12-day liveaboard journey in Raja Ampat aboard La Galigo was nothing short of extraordinary.
The combination of pristine diving, exceptional service, and the professionalism of the crew made this trip a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The dive team on La Galigo delivered outstanding guidance and safety, enriching every dive with their knowledge and passion for marine life. From large pelagics like mantas to macro treasures hidden in coral reefs, every dive revealed the extraordinary biodiversity that makes Raja Ampat so unique. Equally impressive was the onboard service. The La Galigo crew operated with seamless coordination, providing world-class hospitality at every step — from dive preparation to exquisite meals and comfortable accommodations. Their genuine warmth and attention to detail elevated the experience far beyond expectations. This journey was filled with magical moments, both underwater and on deck, and I wholeheartedly recommend La Galigo to any diver considering Raja Ampat. It is an ideal choice for both seasoned and first-time visitors to this region, ensuring a safe, comfortable, and truly unforgettable adventure.
