Good but....

Good overall. Wish ship had left sooner as 2 dives cancelled due to not reaching Atoll in time. When I got to next dive destination, found my regulator broken(?!?) and parts missing...had worked up to last dive. Also dive boots missing(?) but my dive box was empty...don't know what happened there. Loved the reef dives though. My room was noisy in transit (front of boat) hard to sleep. Great group of fellow divers.

Exceptional experience!

Our, double deluxe, was very nice, roomy even! The guides were excellent. They changed the leaders several times during the week. While we enjoyed getting to know each of them, we would prefer to keep the same leader the entire week so that we all get comfortable with each other. I feel like the late departure from Puerto Princessa, combined with the arrival on Friday early (for Saturday disembarkment), robs the diver of a day in the beautiful Tubbataha Park. More dives is always better! Also, just for your information: no night dives in Tubbataha due to Tiger Shark activity. Overall, excellent!!

Great option to see thresher sharks and cuttlefish

The boat travels around the Philippines and gives you a great option to see thresher sharks and cuttlefish and does a number of night dives, where you'll see things that are probably unclassified - hard to see these animals in other places. The highlight of my trip were two solo encounters with a cuttlefish and an octopus. The visibility was poor on one of the days and we were able to do a land tour in Bohol, which included ziplining and things of that nature and was also fun.

Wonderful crew and outstanding diving experience

This was my first , Liveaboard. I had a wonderful time. The Liveaboard, felt modern and up-to-date. My room was clean and spacious. The best thing about the Liveaboard was the staff. They were all amazing, so very courteous and helpful. A shout out goes to Tony, the tour Director, who did his very best to accommodate everyone and resolve issues as fast as possible. Also to, Arnold, who was an excellent dive master. Myron, super boat driver, and always helping me with my equipment. Rob, outstanding photographer. A shout out also goes to Jan, who always greeted me with a big smile and a hot towel every time I came out of the water. We did four dives a day, starting at Dumaguete, over to Apo(spectacular!) around the island of Bohol and over to Cebu. The beauty and diversity of the coral were unforgettable. Claude

Totally superb and absolutely world class diving

The diving is absolutely world class more fish than I have seen, beautiful reefs and an abundance of life that takes your breath away. People make places; alone Tubbataha is totally amazing but with the team across all aspects this place was made super special. Big thanks to Toni, Juffrey, (Jolibo) Kenneth, King Karl and Janace + the steward team and dive-deck crew who were all outstanding in their service and fun! Thank you - this trip on this boat is a must for all divers - without question.
