Very good experience - I would recommend this trip!

Overall experience was great, especially the very helpful crew and the dive sides (one thing I would personally change: not to have the Salem Express as a dive side) Very good value for money - I think it is way better to do a 2 week liveaboard than a 1 week!

Mehr "Hai"-Lights gehen kaum in 14 Tagen

Hammerhaie, Walhai und Manta bei einem Tauchgang - unglaublich! Auch die Gesamtauswahl der Tauchplätze im Norden und Süden durch die Tauchguides und den Käpten waren sehr gelungen und haben kaum Wünsche offen gelassen. Kein Wunder: Der Käpten geht zum Teil mit zum Tauchen und kennt sich deshalb auch unter Wasser sehr gut aus.

Solider Trip, Boot etwas in die Jahre gekommen

Das Boot, der Salon und die Kabinen sind sauber, aber etwas runtergerockt. Die Crew war nett und hilfsbereit und ich hab mich wohl gefühlt. Das Essen war leider nicht sehr abwechslungsreich für Menschen die weder Fisch noch Fleisch essen. Das was da war aber immer gut.

Top Crew

Das Tauchen mal beiseite gelassen - punktet die GD3 mit der Crew und dem fantastischen Essen. Abwechslungsreich und qualitativ wirklich hervorragend. Die Kabinen befinden sich alle in den oberen Decks, somit bekommt man vom Motoren Geräusch weniger mit.
