Exceptional crew, flawless organization, vegetarian friendly
Our trip to Tubbataha on the Philippines Aggressor II was fantastic. The boat is well-run, maintained, and feels highly organized and safe. Huge shoutout to the CD, staff, and dive guides: friendly, experienced, and made every dive seamless. As vegetarians, we were impressed by the chefs, who went above and beyond with varied meals. Highly recommend.

Amazing trip
I chose the boat based on the proposed itinerary as my first female solo dive trip and the Aggressor 2 did not disappoint. In terms of diving, Tubbataha delivered a great, varied experience (healthy reef with macro stuff and pelagics), which overall was well managed by our group guide, Juff. The boat staff was attentive on all fronts from start to the end; my standard shared cabin was spacious, confortable and kept clean at all time by the crew and the food was freshly prepared, varied and delicious. They catered well for special diets, allergies and even prepared some celebratory cakes for some of the occasions that arise. They provided us with a complementary reusable water bottle to help keep the waste level down, which was very handy as well as offering a USB key with some of the week pictures from the onboard photographer, which enabled me to take home some better photos than mine. Overall, It made me appreciate why the price of the trip was a little more expensive than other similar providers.

Extraordinary service and a very pleasant diving experience
The service on this liveaboard was by far the best of all the liveaboards I have been to (12). No matter if it was a dive deck, a dining room or the room service, the crew was amazing. The boat is nice, new, smartly built. The chefs paid full attention to my allergies. The diving was nice, though the dive sites were chosen more on a safe side (almost guaranteed seeing the animals) even though that meant going to a site where whale sharks are being fed. Which is understandable, probably more divers like that more than risking not seeing them. But some of us are willing to take that risk in exchange for a high reward of seeing them in a natural environment.

Amazing staff and excellent boat. Good dives
Excellent boat amenitiesVery attentive and friendly crewAs a downside, initially there were many dives scheduled on sandy bottoms, but since we had not been notified and people preferred to dive in corals, they changed the dive sites, so finally everything went very well and they immediately attended to our requests

A rare experience in great comfort
Diving with the threshers is a special and fairly unique experience. Tubbataha is a special place and very beautiful. As this was a transition trip, we were also able to dive Cayagancillo, which is not on other itineraries.

- The boat and amenities were excellent.. Some of the 'smaller' things differentiate them from other luxury liveaboards, including having plentiful, good quality soap, shampoo and conditioner on the dive platform; having a different colour of tank for the cube leaders due easy identification, using different colour tank lights for the dive guides on night dives. Alcoholic drinks were also included (I wasn't drinking on this trip, but this is usually additional, so could make quite a big difference if drinking wine with dinner every day.. All of the staff were really personable and helpful. Nothing was a problem and solutions were quick and effective..

Beautiful boat and great diving
From enbarkment to disembarkment, the crew took great care of us! Carried the heavy things and helped us with everything they could. After some dives, we would get juice or a smoothie and some fresh fruit! In December the water was a lovely 29C! We saw thresher sharks! Everything was well organized, dives were on time and staff communicated any changes to us promptly.
