Very nice combination of dives and visits
This cruise was a extremely nice experience combining diving and non-diving activities. Having a non-diving partner, it was perfect for both of us. The cabins are comfortable, and the crew very nice and helpful.

Land & Sea Experience
This is the best way to get to know Seychelles because you can enjoy the diving and the main attractions on the different islands. The food and crew on the boat are great! I highly recommend it!

A fantastic week with easy diving in calm waters, fabulous island trekking, amazing food and a great smiling crew!
For a mixed vacation of easy diving and island trekking, this is perfect. The boat crew is so nice, and so helpful. Food on the boat was amazing. The islands of the Seychelles are a treat for visiting giant tortoises and various birds and native plants. The island treks and tours given by local guides were fascinating. The beaches are gorgeous. For serious divers, you may not find the Seychelles to be the best diving in the world, so research diving the Seychelles if you are going just for the diving.

Perfectly balanced trip
We loved this first Liveaboard experience in this archipelago of paradise islands. We were not in the best season for diving and despite everything, our guide was able to find some very nice dives. This is a perfect cruise for less experienced divers!

Unforgettable explanation
The dives were easy and doable for beginners and the giant tortoises are easily the best encounter on the island. Thanks to the crew, they were great.

Fantastic
Fantastic. The crew is incredibly friendly and helpful. Food is insanely tasty and varied. Beautiful places. Even in the Windy season I would do it again. The dives were also fantastic although the visibility was not always good due to the wind. Hence the 4 instead of 5 stars

I would do it again...
I enjoyed the snorkeling, so many fish and warm waters of course. I also enjoyed the island excursions, every island was (of course) different.
