Wonderful trip on a boat with a lot of charm and comfort and sumptuous dives. Unforgettable 🥰
Wonderful holiday interlude on a dream shooner. Well appointed and comfortable with family (adults). Unforgettable dives on preserved places where an organization and quotas restrict access for the benefit of the underwater fauna and flora but also of the divers🥰. The crew is very well organized. Everything went smoothly, in a good mood, in complete safety and comfort on wonderful places. Congratulations and thank you all. I recommend and will repeat the experience if possible.

Everything from start to finish was excellent- from quality of rental equipment to the lovely post dive drinks (juices or teas depending on weather). The crew were super nice and so helpful. Food was plentiful and excellent - bowls of fresh fruit available all the time.

A beautiful boat in a beautiful location
We visited a variety of sites, enjoying both macro life and pelagics like mantas and sharks. When we were in south Komodo, we were virtually alone; only one other dive boat was in the area. The reefs were so healthy with brilliant colors and abundant life. Our divemasters, Sophie and Flo, were wonderful hosts and guides. I enjoyed our shore excursions, hiking a tall peak for a great view and also seeing the Komodo dragons in the park. My week, we only had 7 divers out of the 12 possible, so we got very individualized service (and I had my own cabin!).

- The reefs were in fantastic shape, our divemasters were fun and knowledgeable, and the boat was newly renovated.

Amazing diving, amazingcrew, higly recommended!
Our liveaboard to Misool and Central Raja Ampat was just wonderful. The abundance of fish, the healthy corals, and some of the 'big' attractions made the diving absolutely stand out. Add to that the great and fun group we had on board and the absolutely amazing, happy-energy crew, and this has just become a trip to remember. Furthermore, we loved the safety standards on board and we felt that the crew was in control of everything, including safety, throughout the whole trip (enabling us to have fun and not worry). Thank you Raja Laut and the amazing crew for an unforgettable trip!

A unique experience
Saw more than 15 mantas in Manta Alley in South Komodo. The sunset on the viewpoint was beautiful. Overall the trip was well planned. Apart from the amazing dives with Mantas, sharks, turtles, we also had a lot of fun on the land, visiting local village, Komodo dragons, sunset and thousands of bats.

Forget everything and enjoy yourself at the Emperor Raja Laut
If you have doubts, don't worry. If you want a family and comfortable boat for diving, the Raja Laut is your place. Not fancy, but very comfortable and family-friendly. Nihed and all the staff will do what they can to make you enjoy. They will not assure you of seeing mantas or sharks, but they will do the impossible so that you can see them. Safe dives, first aid kit and extraordinary first aid. Very correct meals, you will not go hungry. And Komodo, an aquarium. Maybe some fslle diving, as in all trips but, in general, beautiful. Looking forward to returning. Thank you Nihed and thank you Raja Laut team, a luxury.

- The all-ship team with Nihed, cruise director, at the helm. Exceptional, they do everything in their power to make you look your best. Magnificent!. The boat, Raja Laut, better than in the photos. Very familiar, you feel at home.. Dives, Komodo looks like an aquarium, although as always, there may be some looser ones.
