Magic above and below
A diving holiday unforgettable for me with dives, sometimes a bit challenging, in places as remote as they are beautiful. Splendid pearls set in an emerald sea. Wonderful corals in excellent health, for now, refuge for an indescribable amount of fish.

Great Liveaboard in Raja Ampat
The Diving in Misool and Central Raja Ampat was world class! We saw a lot of different marine life and very healthy corals. Staff of Raja Laut was amazing and the customer service was great from the start to the end. The boat was really nice and sturdy, even when the seas were rough. Cabins were a bit small but very fuctional. I was lucky and had my own cabin, because the boat wasn't full. Overall incredible liveaboard.

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.

Marvelous diving, friendly and competent crew, pretty boat, and surprisingly good food!
Our nine-night itinerary allowed more diving and relaxation than typical seven-night trips. The boat schedule was good, with dives at 7:00, 11:00, and 15:00. We found many fantastic macro creatures during daytime dives, including pygmy seahorses, and both night dives were outstanding. A few dives had higher current, which challenged some on our boat, and the water was a bit colder in the southern part of Komodo National Park - we were happy to have brought 5 mm wetsuits in addition to our thinner ones. The two land adventures were fun, as were the mealtimes, including special steak night, burger lunch, and hot pot dinner. The best part was the super-friendly and competent crew, especially our dive guide Pablo and the hilarious cruise director Tony. It was absolutely worth it - highly recommended!
