Nice Ship! Nice Diving! Nice Crew!
Up to our Komodo diving liveaboard experience, **Teman** is absolutely unforgettable and fully deserves five stars. We spent a 4D3N trip on this beautiful traditional Phinisi sailboat exploring Komodo National Park. The vessel perfectly blends authentic Indonesian craftsmanship with modern comfort. The carbin with private ensuite bathrooms, kept clean and tidy every single day. The upper deck is our favourite spot to relax, watch sunsets and chat with other guests and crew after diving. The crew is incredibly warm, attentive and professional. Our dive guides - Handry & Adolof know every dive site in Komodo so well. They positioned us perfectly for encounters with manta rays, reef sharks, sea turtles and vibrant coral reefs. We also joined land excursions to see Komodo dragons, Padar Island viewpoint and Pink Beach — all well planned and wonderful! Can you image that after 35mins of trekking in a hot day, the accompany crew present you with ice cold towel and beverage!? And, more important, the crew will gather the bottles/cans/tissued we used and left no trash to the places we went! Food onboard exceeded our expectations. Fresh, varied meals with local and worldwide options were served daily. The high crew-to-guest ratio means you never feel rushed, and every small request was handled quickly. We were expecting an adventure to this diving trip but Teman turned it into a leasure expedition! What we need to do was "eat-dive-rest-enjoy"! We will definitely come back to Teman and 100% recommend it to any diver or snorkeller visiting Komodo.

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.

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!

Amazing experience around Komodo
Our stay at Teman exceeded all our expectations! Everything was incredible, and it truly became one of the greatest experiences of our lives. Starting with the crew, Moses and his team were exceptionally friendly and always ready to help. The itinerary was thoughtfully designed to balance diving with other activities such as hiking, trekking, snorkeling, and relaxing on beautiful beaches. When it came to diving, Moses and Alwin proved to be highly skilled and experienced guides. Every dive felt carefully planned to let us safely and joyfully discover the wonders of Komodo’s underwater world. Last but not least, a special applause to the kitchen crew, who delighted us with delicious and tasteful meals throughout the entire journey.

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!

Excellent Trip... Highly Recommended for Raja Ampat
There were only 5 guests including two of us on the boat. There were 12 crew members including two dive masters. Two of us were lucky enough to have Moses, the cruise director, as our dive master. Above water, Moses was good at planning the dives and giving us detail briefing before each dive. He was also good at finding overnight shelters since there were many storms. He made sure the crew would help us in all ways before and after dives. Well managed team! Underwater, Moses was eager to point out things for us to see. He was an excellent dive master. We did our safety stops by diving in shallow water. That was great since there was so much to see at about 5m. The rest of the service was impeccable. Every detail was well thought of; water before dives, ginger tea for after dives. The food was delicious. Helping us in and out of boats, looking after our wet suits and cameras was done well. Two of us had the three person cabin. The bed was very comfortable. There were ample storage and shelves. The air conditioning and bathroom set up worked well. Do beware that the shower would get everything wet. The coral was gorgeous but there was bleaching and some sites showed much damage from being overdived. There were so many different kinds of fish that we could hardly keep up. Visibility was poor to ok while we were there. The amount of garbage in the ocean was staggering. Very sad to see that. What is worst is coming up from a dive and be in the middle of a garbage patch. The dive masters tried to avoid that as much as possible but some of it was unavoidable. Since we only did 14 dives over basically six days, we did other activities. - trekked through the jungle to the Blue River It was clear and magical - walked up to the top of Piaynemo with an unforgettable view of these tiny islands scattered like jewels (this view is printed on the 100,000 rupee note) - we spent an afternoon on a private island. It was a priceless experience The one place that may need a little attention is on the equipment. A little refreshing would be nice. This’s my 4th liveaboard and definitely the best. Highly recommend it to anyone thinking of diving in Raja Ampat.

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!

Best dive trip we've had. Want to go back!
Incredible 10 night cruise through Central Raja Ampat and Misool. Highly recommend the Teman with its current cruise director Rayane, guides, and crew. Our dive guide Rendy was amazing, favorite I've ever had out of the 25-30 I've dove with. The other guides Moses and Lucky were also excellent in terms of competency, knowledge, safety, and fun from what I saw, but Rendy was did a bunch of little extra things that set him apart. He was just as excited as we were to see things underwater, had really great eyes for spotting critters big and small, and prioritized figuring out what we liked then delivering it each dive. Always there with an assist for photos and videos, including swimming out into current a few times while we were hooked to get some incredible video of us. And a great singer and guitar player to top if off! Apparently singing is a big part of Indonesian culture and Rendy often led the crew in their evening sessions, loved hearing their songs at sunset. I wish he would guide all my dives! The cruise director Rayane was also incredible. A generally lovely human to have around. Very fun to chat with, always positive and sensible (even through a few challenging situations due to one of the other guest's health), and quickly addressed every issue brought his way. His dad is one of the two boat owners and his actions showed he is heavily invested in making everything as perfect as possible for the guests. He was also very organized and kept things running smoothly. Would also love to have Rayane on all of my trips! Food was excellent every meal, lots general Asian dishes with an Indonesian dish or two every meal - including a detailed explanation for the special ones! I'd say my wife and I, especially her, have some high food standards and we were very very happy. Probably somewhat uncommon but awesome for us detail on our cruise... We had 11 guests (of 12 max), 3 of which were snorkeling only. So with 3 dive guides and the breakdown of guest groups, that meant my wife and I had a guide to ourselves every dive except 1, for the standard price. It was amazing. She even had the guide to herself the first two days while I sat out with an infected mosquito bite on my ankle (from a land based resort prior to liveaboard). Note that it seemed like three guides is standard for the boat and I was told that Indonesia requires max 4 guests per guide. I'm not sure what the usual mix of guests is, so I suspect we got a bit lucky with this experience, but it seems more likely than a standard dive cruise since there's a mix of other activities on top diving, which may attract more non diving guests than most liveaboards. Diving itself was also amazing. Our first time in Raja Ampat and hopefully not the last. So. Much. Life. Healthiest reefs we've seen. The sites in Misool are particularly mind blowing. There's a reservation system in the southern part run by Misool Eco Resort which limits site access to one boat at a time, and only a few visits a day for each site. So we never saw another boats' divers underwater, and rarely our own boats' divers. Snorkeling at almost every dive site was also offered, and it sounded like the snorkeling was also amazing. For reference, 25 dives were offered over the 10 night trip. And I think 7 other activities like hikes and special snorkeling locations. Activities were all great - a few short hikes to beautiful vistas, jellyfish lake snorkel, shark beach snorkel, and a few lagoon explorations/snorkels. They all made for a nice mix with the diving. Boat was overall good enough, seemed well maintained and nicely designed. Common eating and lounging area was particularly great - spacious, well laid out, and very comfortable. If they add another dedicated fan pointed at the dining table (as Rayane said he plans to soon), it'll be even better. Roof deck lounging at sunset was beautiful. A minor complaint though, our cabin Sulawesi had a few issues that Rayane either fixed i

Amazing experience!
I had an amazing time on the Teman. The staff is incredibile, they fullfill every wish for you. Also the diving instructures are very professional and helpful. I have not much diving experience and felt very comfortable with them and gained trust very quickly. High comfort in cabins, a lot of space on the boat to chill and relax. I loved the half day trips to the islands with the view points. The only thing that was missing for me was Indonesian food, they kitchen is rather western, which was really good but a bit more of Indonesian kitchen would have been nice.

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
