First experience diving and on a liveaboard - could not be happier !
Thank you for this awesome experience! It was my first time on a liveaboard and first time diving and my instructor Laurent really helped me a lot to be more confident in the water, teaching proper safety guidance and showing great marine life. The boat was awesome, always clean - I already miss the food a lot! Awesome boat crew, always kind and smiling and helpful when having to get back on the boat post-diving with the heavy equipment. Thanks for the great time !

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.

Excellent and safe diving, friendly crew, good food😍!
I was diving with my 13 years old son, he completed Advanced PADI course before and made 20 dives. I was scared the trip might’ve been too much for him, but he enjoyed the most, made all dives with me and very experienced instructor, dives were beautiful and safe (I am divemaster with 1280 dives). These dives are among top rated dive sites on the world and they do deserve this reputation. Thank you for organising this magic trip. We made so many friends on the boat- everything so friendly and professional and sooo nice people - crew and guests 😊😍!!! We come again soon with all my family🤩🫶🔝😍❤️!!!!

Amazing first liveaboard experience
I had a wonderful first liveaboard experience on board of Dolphin Queen. We were lucky to be a group of 7 solo travellers which made the cruise so chill and confortable. The diving spots are great and we were priviledge to dive with a whale shark in Koh Tachai. Overall the islands are a must see and the 18 dives were all unique and allowed to discover the rich marine life of the area. The crew was super friendly and the food always so delicious. The boat size is sufficient and the shared space super cozy to chat and relax during the surface interval. I would definitely come back on Dolphin Queen if I travel again in the area and recommend this cruise for anyone, including less experienced divers like me.
