Amazing trip really ultimate Raja Ampat
The whole trip was amazing from beginning till the end. We felt always welcome on board and the crew took care of everything to make the trip an amazing experience for us. The dive sites were amazing and the dives were well prepared and organized, starting from the briefing till the end on the boat when the crew took care of our gear. We managed to see a huge variety of wild live from pygmy seahorses to giant mantas.

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.

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!

La Galigo diving and team deliver!
Great diving, excellent staff & crew, comfortable bed, below deck cabins bigger than most boats, nice indoor common/dining area, good (and plentiful) food. Rear dive deck is much better than most area boats with side deck tender access. Dive prep area is big enough. Shaded area w beanbags and padded benches for about half the guests. Boat could use top deck shade area. Nice shore excursions.
- Recommended for
- Raja Ampat diving is world class and rear dive deck & two tenders made access easy.. Cruise director, staff and dive crew went above and beyond, best liveaboard service I have had!. Shore excursions were interesting and varied - jelly fish lake a highlight!.

Great experience
I boarded La Garigo in August, and it was an amazing experience. The boat crew and dive staff were always kind and friendly, and the cabin deck, rooms, and dining area were immaculately cleaned every day. The boat moved slowly and quietly, and it was as comfortable as a cradle. While this may not be enough for adventurous divers, the crew always prioritizes the safety of their guests and never pushes them too hard. The crew checked the currents at each dive. Groups of up to four people were divided by skill level, and the guides and crew always looked out for them. A wide variety of dive spots were planned for each dive, so we never got bored. There were also days when we went to macro-points, so photographers would recommend private guides. The meals were varied and one of the highlights of this trip. They also catered to vegetarians and vegans. A different healthy drink was provided after each dive, which was also a pleasure. Overall, it was a fun eight days, every day.
