Magnificent
Diving with manta rays, friendliness of the staff and the knowledge of the dive crew. They took us to the sites which they knew would be the best for the conditions and made everything so easy for us. The food on board was incredible, the cabins were clean and comfortable and the trip was very relaxing.

Unparalleled Liveaboard Experience!
I can’t say enough good things about our trip on the Teman. It was truly an unforgettable experience with an incredible crew. The diving was outstanding, and Moses proved to be an exceptional guide. We encountered majestic mantas, countless sharks and turtles, and an endless variety of vibrant marine life. Life onboard was just as impressive. The ship’s amenities were perfect, the food and drinks excellent, and every detail was taken care of with the utmost attention. The crew anticipated and met every need seamlessly, making the entire journey effortless and enjoyable. It’s the kind of trip I’ll remember for the rest of my life, and honestly, I can’t imagine how it could have been any better. Absolutely top-notch in every way. Highly, highly recommended!

Amazing start to finish
This trip was perfect in every way. Of course, the diving is second to none. I wonder how I will dive anywhere else. The boat is beautiful and maintained well. It’s nicely laid out with covered and open spaces never fell like I was getting cabin fever, even though I was on the boat for 10 nights. The dive crew is expert and take care of everything. Preparing your equipment, loading it, helping you get it on, making sure it’s just right, and thinking through and explaining each dive, and what is great about it. They were enthusiastic, prepared, professional, and fun. The cabins are nicely appointed, with air-conditioning, and the boat is so stable. we didn’t take any of the sea sickness pills that I brought. I went there with my family, so there were 10 of us on the boat, which was a really great way to do it. If you can find a bunch of people to go in on it with you. We paid for an extra dive guide for my dad, which was really helpful and gave us flexibility. Just amazing

Best experience ever!
Just perfect, it was our Honeymoon, and Rayane and his Crew make it just special and unforgettable. The food level is just amazing, better then in the hotels, the boat is really good maintained and cleaned all the time. The snorkel experiences is the main part and the Tour Manger try his best to make it special, at the end still nature, never forget. All the crews member are so profetional. I think there are not much boat like this. We will sure contact them in the future because for us Teman is synonymous of best life and friends! Thank you again guys!

The best 3 days of our trip to Indonesia
It has been an incredible experience. The route was perfectly chosen. The crew is very discreet, friendly and takes care of every last detail. We have felt very pampered and cared for. The food was excellent (and filling). Moses took care to explain everything to us every day and was aware that everything was to our liking. Our snorkel guide, Alex, guided us wonderfully and we were able to see the most spectacular marine wildlife we have ever seen. Our cabin was at the stern, which is spacious and has a very nice window. The only thing to note is that this room is next to the generator and there is more noise to sleep in. You could also sleep perfectly and it is worth it. Finally, everything was very well organized and we never had to wait, everything was perfectly coordinated. We will return if we have the opportunity to a route with more days, and we recommend the experience 100%.

Unforgettable Liveaboard Experience!
We had an incredible time on our liveaboard trip! The diving was absolutely amazing, with a variety of vibrant marine life and well-organized dive excursions. In between dives, the land-based activities added an extra layer of adventure and were a great way to explore the area. Our cabin exceeded expectations—spacious, clean, and very comfortable, making it easy to relax after a full day. The crew truly made the trip special; they were always friendly, attentive, and eager to help with anything we needed. And the food—wow! Every meal was delicious, with plenty of variety and fresh ingredients. Overall, it was a fantastic trip from start to finish. Can’t wait to do it again!
