Absolutely a pleasure to sail on this ship with this crew; loved the experience, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
The entire trip was a pleasure. Very nice boat, and the crew were fantastic. Great food, and always caring for us. The diving was fantastic! They did their very best to help us enjoy the trip. We had 8 in our group and we had so much fun. Thank you to everyone involved, because this vacation was beautiful.

A Trip of a Lifetime
We had a wonderful time on the Tiburon Explorer. Everyone was attentive and informative. The boat and cabins were beautiful, spacious, and food was excellent. The crew made sure we had everything we needed. We had lots of assistance with gear. Our cabins were kept clean with made beds and fresh towels daily. We had a couple land tours that were informative about the islands ecology. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and checked all our expectations.

Best dive boat I've ever been on
I don't know if I can put into words how amazing this trip was. Sure, seeing the incredible sea animals was over the top, but much more importantly, the crew was kind, courteous, attentive. I'm not the diver I used to be, and they took special Care to keep me safe. They let me put my gear on in the panga, which was so sweet. Also taking our gear off in the water before getting back in the panga was a godsend. I think I developed a crush on my dive guides. Very knowledgeable, very professional, and it didn't hurt that they were both very attractive! If only I was 40 years younger!
