Five stars — and we would book again tomorrow
We just finished a liveaboard diving trip through Komodo National Park aboard the Adelaar, and it was one of the best trips we’ve ever taken. The boat feels like a private yacht, not a packed dive barge: small guest numbers, polished service, and a crew that actually pays attention. Dylan, Ann, Hiro, and Alfrey were exceptional. Briefings were clear, dive planning adapted to conditions, and they made every drop feel well managed without ever being stiff. They were professional in the water and genuinely warm on deck. An unexpected highlight: early morning workouts with Dylan on deck. We didn’t expect that, and we appreciated it more than we thought we would — a great way to start the day before diving. The diving was outstanding. Healthy reefs, big schools of fish, manta rays, turtles, and reef sharks were the high points. Sites felt well chosen and uncrowded, and the team put us in the right places at the right times. Food was excellent — consistently so. Meals were a highlight of the day, not just fuel between dives. If you want Komodo done properly — serious diving, small groups, and a crew that treats the trip like it matters — book the Adelaar. Five stars without hesitation.

This is the one!
Fantastic liveaboard. Only 4 cabins, small dive groups, mostly empty dive sites, was fantastic! The boat is beautiful inside and out, very comfortable and luxurious. Service is great and so is the food. Dylan, the cruise director is knowledgeable and experienced in all environments, he made sure we had the best experience at every dive site and on board. I have 2 more trips booked with them now and will book more.

Great trip but only if you can meet other guests with same level diving experience, otherwise they have to choose some dive site for low level then you will miss some best dive site.
