Incredible diving and full experience!
Such an incredible experience! The route and dive sites were great, we were very lucky and saw sharks. The crew were amazing, super helpful and friendly, dive guides included! The food was great, healthy and always so much! Cabins were as expected in a liveaboard, small but comfortable. The group were the best and made the trip that much more special!

An all-round successful trip that wants to be repeated in a similar way.
Boat, crew, supplies, route, daily routine and diving safety have meshed perfectly. At Deadalus reef hammerhead sharks and manta rays imagined themselves, at Elphinstone and at the Brothers you could drift - great cinema!

A wonderful liveaboard
The safari was a great experience with wonderful dives! The crew was absolutely world class, everyone was always approachable and helpful and made the trip an unforgettable experience for everyone. The food was very tasty and varied and there was something for every taste. Extra requests were also fulfilled as far as possible. The cabins are simple and a little old, but still ok. The only point of criticism is that it was not pointed out in advance that no night dives are possible on this route.

Hooked for Life – An Unforgettable First Liveaboard Experience with Discovery I
I honestly don’t even know how to begin—this was my very first liveaboard experience, and it completely hooked me on scuba diving even more. I loved every moment spent on Discovery I. From the start, everything was smooth. The LiveAboard website was easy to navigate, and the customer service was excellent—very responsive, well-organized, and helpful. Discovery Divers was just as impressive. I was picked up from the airport right on time, exactly as promised, and felt safe on every single dive we did. The boat crew and dive guides were not only professional and skilled but also incredibly warm and friendly. They made the whole trip feel special. We were so lucky with our sightings—we saw hammerheads, threshers, oceanic whitetips, a whale shark, dolphins, manta rays, and more. What stood out the most to me was how passionate the crew was. You’d never catch them looking tired or bored. Their enthusiasm was contagious—it felt like they were just as excited as we were, as if it were their first liveaboard too. They are, without a doubt, some of the most hardworking and genuine people I’ve ever met. What made the whole experience even more memorable was the great company. Everyone on board was cool, friendly, and easy to get along with, which really added to the fun and relaxed vibe. I was lucky to have a great roommate, too—we shared a small cabin, but we managed well and it honestly worked out perfectly. As for the facilities, I have nothing negative to say. Everything was well-kept, clean, and fully functional. You’ve got everything you need on board, and it’s all maintained with care. The food? Incredible. We were seriously spoiled by the kitchen crew—four scheduled meals a day, snacks in between, free-flowing drinks, and a ton of extra treats available anytime. The crew helped out with everything—from dive gear to daily needs—and always with a smile. Even after the trip ended, the service continued. My flight was at night, and they arranged a transfer with perfect timing so I wouldn’t have to wait too long at the airport. That level of attention to detail really left a lasting impression. For the price I paid, I’d do this all over again in a heartbeat. I honestly can’t wait to be back at sea with this company.

Everything was perfect for me. Mo the guide was excellent. The Red Sea is always amazing diving. Lots of oceanic white tips, beautiful corals and many gorgeous fish. The food was great. The boat was very clean. The crew were awesome and made a special effort for a birthday onboard. I had a great time. Thank you.
