Best, liveaboard experience ever
Everything about this trip was fantastic. The crew really made it special with everything from amazing service and taking care of us to the absolutely phenomenal food and being able to spend some moments with the crew and the captain playing the guitar and them singing our excursions and the barbecue They set up for us on the beach was breathtaking. We got rained on but it was still amazing... A truly spectacular trip

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!

Amazing experience
Dives sites were great, dive guides and instructors were amazing and very friendly, thank you @Salla, Abda and Hans! Very friendly environment for snorkels too! Excursions were perfect and we got to see some incredible places and views. Food was always very tasty and different, I wonder how the chef managed to cook so well in a tiny kitchen and limited ingredients. The rest of the crew was so nice too, all very friendly, always ready to help and to have a chat with. We even got the opportunity to watch them sing and playing instruments. So in the end the trip was great if not perfect. Nothing to complain about but on the contrary it felt like every little detail was carefully thought to give to all the guests the best experience possible. Every day is packed with lots of activities for a quite schedule but there’s always a bit of time to chill and just enjoy the sceneries passing by. Highly recommended trip! Thanks Mikumba Diving team!

New boat with amazing boat crew
7/8nights Raja Ampat Central/North. The boat is relatively new with an amazing boat crew (very courteous, also up for a chat, playing cards or chess). The common areas are very functional and fit perfectly for resting, dive briefings and eating. The dive deck has a spacious setup. Diving dinghies are in good shape. Dive guides come from Sulawesi and have very good eyes to spot critters. This was my second trip to Raja and I was surprised to see stunning muck sites (which this boat/crew probably tend to cater more than others, out of 23 dives, 5 were night/muck) and lots of special critters (e.g. wonderpus, flamboyant cuttlefish, blue ringed octopus).
