Remarkable Raja Ampat
The La Galigo crew and the Raja Ampat 12 day destination was a remarkable scuba diving trip. The dive sites and itinerary was exceptional and we were fortunate to see so much of the beauty and wildlife that Raja Ampat is famous for. I enjoyed the food each day and felt that the crew overall - from dive guides, to cook staff, engineers and the deck crew were very professional and kind. I think this is a trip that redefines my goals for scuba trips going forward. I recommend La Galigo to others and hope they enjoy it as much as we did!

Great Liveaboard for long Trips
Have been in Raja Ampat on La Galigo for a 12 day Trip. I can absolutely recommend the boat for anyone looking for a well run dive boat. Surya (our Cuise Director) and his crew took really good care of us, the food was really tasty and plentiful, the rooms were spacious enough with shelves and cupboards, the shower/bathroom were clean. Everything was organized really good, the dive briefings were on point and not too long, and you noticed that the crew is really customer oriented. My luggage was delivered late by the airline I flew with, and the Team did everything to make sure I would get my bags as fast as possible. Thanks again to the team, it was a wonderful trip.

Wonderful 2 wks for
Great diving - loved the healthy marine life from the nudibranchs to the pacific manta rays, and the abundance and color of hard and soft coral. Since the boat is small, there were only 10 divers for the 12 days of diving and we became a tight knit group.

- Staff was very friendly and attentive. Dive briefing were detailed, accurate, and followed under water. Loved the small number of divers and the 1:4 Guide to Diver ratio.

Had a great trip. The alternation between beautiful dives and cool trips made it perfect. Even though there were some unforeseen problems, the crew did everything they could to solve it as soon as possible. Everything happened with a smile! You literally didn't have to think about anything: everything was taken care of. The food was also very tasty and varied. The trip costs a bit, but is totally worth it.

Best Liveaboard Experience
I just did the 8-day/7-night trip through Komodo, and it was the best diving experience I have had. Beyond the diverse and challenging dive sites that the crew chose, La Galigo has excellent dive guides and a cruise director that create a really fun and enjoyable experience. The boat is amazing from the comfortable cabins to food to chill-out areas, and it is really great to look at as well. The crew are friendly and super helpful, and the booking experience from beginning to end was easy. I would 100 percent recommend La Galigo for any liveaboard trip anywhere, because no matter where you go the experience is going to be incredible.

Our experience on the La Galigo was most excellent!
The highlights of this trip surrounded the attention to the dive site itinerary. The trip planners and the dive guides balanced the weather with the dive sites to assure optimal exposure to the best possible dive sites. The entire crew could not have been more friendly, and their attention to detail and commitment to ensure an enjoyable trip was quite evident. Chief Gibo was most pleasant and attentive to the dietary needs of the passengers and prepared some excellent dishes every meal...the barbecue on the last evening was top notch! Dive guides Fendy and Dody were both excellent guides and made every dive insightful and enjoyable as well as safe. My wife and I had a spectacular trip and give the La Galigo and her crew our highest recommendation!
