Great liveaboard experience
Beautiful dive sites . Great schedules of the dives and activities. Amazing local crew. For the food, the chef did its best with a lot of options ; it did not fully match our taste and we once were sick due to food but I know that the other divers were very pleased with the food . The Cruise directors were also good and did their best ; I would have appreciated that my dive guide shows more calm during the dives sometimes but overall a great experience.

10/10 - a thoroughly well organised company, enjoyed every second!
It was thoroughly well put together, with 15 staff to attend to the 12 guests. All the way from engineer, to boat decks, kitchen staff, to dive guides - all were exceptional. The boat itself is incredibly comfortable, with plenty of space to chill in-between dives and rooms are well kept. The food was delicious every meal and we certainly didn't go hungry! Eric and Camille run the whole operation incredibly well, and go the extra mile with non-dive activities such as hikes, shexpert talks (shark expert) and a bit of ornithology. The days are packed but that's a good thing, and it's amazing how much you can fit into the week, with a total of 23 dives. Importantly, they genuinely care about the reef, its inhabitants, and the protection of them which is refreshing. Watching fellow divers smash up the coral with their fins actually ruins holidays but they really keep an eye on this. Thoroughly recommend this organisation if you're considering Raja Ampat.

Wonderful 6 day trip to Komodo
Mikumba was my first liveaboard diving experience, and I could not have asked for anything more on the 6-day trip in Komodo. Every single one of the crew did a fantastic job with a smile. The boat was new and a good size, I booked the standard cabin which was basic but clean, the food was varied and delicious, the group of divers were great, the dive guides were attentive, helpful, and friendly, and cruise directors Eric and Cami worked non-stop both behind the scenes and centre stage to deliver a smooth and fun experience on the boat, in the water, and on the land-based outings. One memorable experience was to witness the presentation of Pocari Sweat on Komodo's "Pride Rock" equivalent to the Circle Of Life. The diving itself was brilliant. It had been a while since my last dive, so the team offered a refresher during the first dive. The crew were always on hand to help with the gear. And under water, the amount of marine life was wonderful, and the encounters ranged from manta rays, turtles and sharks, to a myriad of micro stuff. I wholeheartedly recommend Mikumba. Thank you for a fantastic liveaboard experience!

11 days in a flash..
An all-round successful diving trip went by much too quickly, the reefs and very good condition, rich in fish and a manta dive that knocked our socks off...

- Eric and Cami and the whole staff. Choice of divespots, briefings, preparation of equipment and accompaniment. Good day planning and interspersed alternatives (hikes).

Incredible Trip in Komodo
An unforgettable Komodo experience from start to finish. The diving is without question among the best in the world, with extraordinary marine life and breathtaking reefs at every site. Special thanks to Eric and Camille, the outstanding cruise directors, whose expertise and warmth set the tone for the entire journey. Equal appreciation goes to the crew, whose skill, attentiveness, and constant good spirits ensured that every detail was flawless. A truly world-class operation.

Great dives great mood
I had a fantastic experience on board of the Jelajahi Laut thanks to the experience and kindness of the crew, especially the cruise directors Eric and Cami. They knew when was the best time to go to each dive location, considering current, weather, crowdedness and other factors. They went out of their way to find the perfect spot to jump and always did whatever they could to make sure we enjoyed the dive as much as possible. Eric even gifted me a new wristband for my dive computer when mine was about to break. The entire crew also created a very fun and relaxed mood on the boat. Everyone was very friendly and kind, overall a fantastic experience to explore the Komodo National Park. Even the hikes were fun and enjoyable. I can only recommend :)
