Liveaboard on the Dolphin Queen: Worth Every Penny!
I really enjoyed the entire liveaboard on the Dolphin Queen. The team was great, approachable, warm and humorous, and the organization perfect. Everything was organized professionally and safely on the one hand and with a lot of fun and a relaxed, cheerful atmosphere on the other. The underwater world is beautiful and the dives were fun. The team was supportive, positive and solution-oriented at all times. The cabins are fine, I was two in a four-bed cabin and therefore had a lot of space. The food was also very good. I would do a liveaboard on the Dolphin Queen again in a heartbeat. A manta ray or a whale shark would have done the whole thing perfectly, but that's hard to organize :)

Great experience, great scheduling and great dives!!
Extremely well cared liveaboard experience. Number of divers on the boat is just ideal, number of guides/divers as well, cabins are comfortable, food is plenty and well done, drinks are available anytime and the best part is the dive schedule. Absolutely nothing is rushed and there's plenty of surface interval between dives. I've been to a few liveaboards already and I can say the scheduling of the Dolphin Queen was simply the best. You can eat, sleep, dive and repeat with ease. Not to mention the dive sites!! You won't be disappointed with the Similan Islands. Book yours and go!! Completely worth it and highly recommended!!

Unforgettable moments on board and underwater.
Super nice guides and very tasty food. Very good dive sites were approached and not always only the top spots, so we were almost always the only divers underwater. Nevertheless, very great dive sites and many large and small animals.

Brilliant trip, nice boat, great guides
Family run business where they really care for their customers. The office staff are friendly and very professional - they got us setup quickly and had a good selection of equipment. Rooms on the boat are small but have AC. We did the Similan Islands and Richelieu rock trip and it was epic - whale sharks, marble ray, turtles, octopus and masses for cool reef fish and amazing corals. Food is good and there’s cold beer. The dive groups are small - 4 divers with a DM - which is ideal. Overall a brilliant trip and highly recommend!

Unbelievable views with a great crew
Dive crew helped me improve my diving and we saw amazing sights with very clear water. The food was also really good, Thai themed despite being on a boat. Night doves, sunset dives, so many dives it was awesome.

A great dive grouo
Richelieu Rock, we did 5 dives there. We were very lucky for the weather, not too hot and not to cold. We made a lot of new friends.

- The other people. Most were young and I’m older, so it was nice to dive with young people. The guides were excellent. The food was delicious.
