Loved every minute - great diving, great people, great boat, great crew.
I had a fantastic time overall on Blue Manta. All of the crew were amazing and each did everything they could to ensure everything went smoothly and that everybody had a good time. The cabins are basis, and a bit dated - but overall very clean and comfortable. I was lucky to have a fantastic group of fellow travellers, with great variety of nationalities, backgrounds, language, experience, etc. - so lots to learn and absorb and everybody got along well. Cedric and the other dive guides were super-knowledgeable. The dive briefings were excellent and there were no (bad) surprises in the water. Food/drinks - the meals were excellent all the way through, with great variety every day. 3 full meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and plenty of snacks and other food options available throughout the day if that isn't enough. Unlimited soft drinks too, which really worked for me as I don't drink alcohol. Choice of price of alcoholic beverages seemed very acceptable to those who did have them.

An exceptional liveaboard experience.
Splendid dive and ship operations in my option. All crew worked as one team! It was a joy to wake up and have all day genuinely smiling and competent people around. I particularly liked the cruise directors philosophy. His wake-up calls and dive briefings are legendary. All dive guides did their very best to suit all guests interests and abilities. I gladly will be back on the Blue Manta.

Top Notch Trip!
The Blue Manta is a fabulous ship - clean, modern and comfortable. Plenty of room for lounging on the sun deck or mid deck, rooms are big and beautiful, and the scuba area is large and well organized. The staff was super attentive and helpful, paying attention to details and comfort all the time. The food was plentiful and great quality - and it kept coming! Komodo park was excellent and their schedule of dives kept me busy and happy. Great boat and great trip - I would do it again in a heartbeat!
