A great break getting back into diving with excellent support
A Very positive experience both diving and generally on board. Everyone was very supportive, especially to a “senior citizen” who hadn’t dived for a couple of years. Highlights were some of the big corals and abundance of fish, plus managing some strong current and surge on a few of the dives.

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.

Great for Diving Rookies and Veterans!
This was a great trip as a beginner to intermediate diver. I had 29 dives at the start of the trip so my goal was to dive in a wider variety of environments and in more difficult conditions. This trip was perfect for it. The boat was confortable but not extravagant, the staff were down to earth, and the dive sites were both great and varied. This was my first liveaboard and after my experience I cannot recommend it to others enough.

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 :)

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.

The best experience I could have asked for
The dives were really(!) good, beautiful sites, lots of life and coral, but most important, the guides and boat crew were very professional and made sure everything is safe and straight. But for me the best was staying on the boat, it was really cozy and comfortable , the atmosphere was very friendly and fun. Had so much fun hanging with the crew and other divers between and after the dives.
