Couldn’t recommend more
There are less than 10 liveaboards in Tubbataha and Aggressor II might just be the best one out there - the boat is new and generally has a great build with an efficient layout. The crew is the cherry on top. Dive guides, housekeeping, stewards, all of them are very kind, helpful, and joyful. They will make sure you absolutely put (near) 0 effort into every activity. There are pros and cons of every liveaboard but what matters is that 1. if you want to go to Tubbataha, a liveaboard is the only way to, 2. Aggressor II is the best liveaboard out of all Can’t really go wrong tbh. Go for it

Fantastic liveaboard
This was our best live aboard experience ever. The crew were particularly noteworthy, nothing was too much trouble. The weather was perfect and the diving fantastic. Always felt the dive guides were watching out for us and finding interesting creatures. 10/10

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.

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

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.

excellent liveaboard!
The crew, food, and the boat itself were incredible. Service was very good, they went above and beyond. The boat was kept very clean the entire time. The food had a great variety and quality, you can tell it was made with passion. Regarding the diving, we didn't see any pelagics (manta rays, hammerhead sharks, etc.), but overall it was still good because the reefs were pristine and there was an abundance of reef species to see. There also weren't many other divers, so it felt like we had an incredible reef all to ourselves. Overall, the experience was excellent, I would just recommend diving later in the season for better chances of larger species. I would also recommend trying to book directly with Aggressor. I booked through LiveAboard.com and their response time was super slow (multiple days for simple questions).
