Absolutely booking with them again!
It was amazing! There was adequate breaks between dives to ogle photos from the prior dive, eat/drink, take a nap, or just soak in the amazing scenery. Very well organized and communication was amazing, even when it was a developing situation due to someone getting DCS. They took care of us like family. I rented all my gear, except mask and they were all amazingly taken care of and when the mouth piece wearing out they replaced it before I even had a chance to mention it.

- Organization and communication. Dive briefs and communication of expectations for the dive. Personalities of the crew: there were always little jokes and cheers and water being advertised as more than just water to hydrate us: “wine before your dive?” Haha.

A trip I will never forget in my life
As a guest who used to work on a liveaboard before. I have to say Ilike has done a very good job. Although there were some unexpected things happened during the trip, the cruise director handled it very well. If you travel on a liveaboard, it is important to be flexible and just enjoy every moment you have on the boat. I had a wonderful time with the crew members and guests on the boat. It will always be a beautiful memory in my heart. Thank you to all the crew members who made this trip happen.

Memorable trip on Ilike
I had an excellent trip on Ilike. Love all the staff who helped out with cleaning our gear after dives and handing them out before each dive. Excellent service. Food was so great that it’s hard not to gain weight. Choices of dive sites were lovely too. We managed to see a whole lot of animals.

I got every cent worth of value for my money and I highly recommend this boat for experienced divers and underwater photographers.
The experience was top class. The boat was well maintained and the staff were attentive. The diving met and surpassed expectations. The food was, as always, in abundance, and very good, no matter your dietary requirements. Nothing negative to say.

- The variety of space on the boat and the food. The dive guides and safety. The attention to detail in dive briefings and understanding on goals for each dive.

The dive guides and ships crew were excellent! Their service and hard work made the trip exceptional. The weak spot was the chef: either chicken or makerel and white rice for nearly every lunch and d
Koon, Misool, Blue magic and Melissa's Garden in Central Raja Ampat... and the crew lead by Jan: a superb cruise manager. Always organized and very punctual.
- Recommended for
- Excellent service, crew had tanks always ready, very consistent NO2 mix and carried the tanks, cameras, etc to the tenders for each diver 3-4 dives per day. The dive sites were excellent.
