An unforgettable experience
It was certainly one of the best experiences ever. We saw documentary places, with thousands of beautiful colorful fish and corals. The food on board was extremely good and varied. The crew made the stay really comfortable and enjoyable. The guides were very prepared, even with the dives in strong currents they made everything clear and incredible. In addition, the group that was created with the travel companions was really a plus!

Amazing trip!
I had an amazing trip on Nusantara! We saw a lot of beautiful dive sites and the crew on board were so kind and helpful. The ratio between diving and free time was perfect. You had time to relax between the dives, but you didn’t get bored. I slept on the top deck and I would 100% recommend that. It wasn’t too hot and there were so much space. It was 4 unforgettable days! I will definitely be diving with Mikumba diving again. Great company!

Amazing diving in Komodo
Highly recommend Nunsatara and Mikumba Diving for your diving liveaboard in Komodo. The trip was short which was great as it fit into our travel plans and budget, but it hit all the dive spot highlights and got to do an awesome land tour on Rinca island to see Komodo dragons. The boat staff were AMAZING, food was plentiful and delicious, guides were fantastic, equipment rental was easy and worked well. Would definitely dive with Mikumba team again!

A wonderful experience!
The guides make their outmost best to provide great dives in the best dive spots in complete safety. The guides are indeed very expert and have good knowledge of the sites. The boat crew took good care of all the rest, from the diving gear to tidying up the decks and even our beds. Last but not least, the food was just amazing, with a lot of variety, big portions for big hungers, and good quality and taste. Probably the best food had since traveling in Indonesia.

We received excellent diving briefs before every dive, the guides were careful and supportive, the ship is comfortable and in good condition, the crew excellent as well.

It was our first liveabaord and the first time we were diving in Komodo. We are not experienced divers but we really felt safe and we did enjoy every moment even it was « sportive » dives. The manta dance for almost all our dive was an amazing experience. Also, the shut gun was something aha. We had a nice crew too so it did help for the experience overall!

Amazing Liveaboard Experience with Mikumba Diving!
I recently joined a liveaboard trip with Mikumba Diving, and it was truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The boat crew were friendly, professional, and attentive to every detail. They made sure we were comfortable, safe, and well taken care of throughout the trip. The dive guides were outstanding! They are knowledgeable, patient, and deeply passionate about the marine life. Each dive was well-briefed and thoughtfully planned, allowing us to enjoy the underwater world to the fullest. We saw incredible biodiversity and always felt in good hands. A special shout-out to the cook for the amazing meals, which were a highlight of the trip in itself. Overall, Mikumba Diving exceeded all expectations. Fantastic diving, amazing crew, great vibes, and unforgettable memories.

Amazing Liveaboard on Nusantara
I have been on a 4 days and 3 nights liveaboard with Mikumba diving on the boat Nusantara. This experience was amazing, the dive crew is so nice, very experienced and we had a lot of fun with them. They are very good guides, they perfectly know the sites and will share their knowledges with pleasure. Big shoutout to Gavur who was my guide on this trip. The boat on itself is perfect for four days, with good places to chill, the dorm is very confortable. The boat crew is amazing as well, always here to help you and trying to make your trip as perfect as possible. The food is excellent; very fresh and varied. I highly recommend this liveaboard, I had wonderful time and I would definitely go back with them

Great dive guides, people, orga, excellent budget boat
Our first liveaboard/liveaboard. We enjoyed every minute and definitely recommend the boat! The dive guides Salla and Hans were great, excellent knowledge of the dive locations and always everyone in the group in view. Felt very safe at all times. The guys on the boat were a highlight, were extremely helpful, especially when putting on equipment. Food was very good, and more than you can eat. There were snacks or meals between all dives. We enjoyed sleeping on the sleeping deck, it was nice and cool at night, clean and would have been protected from the rain. Highly recommended for a budget dive boat.
