Great for the money and short time
Richileu Rock, food and crew were fantastic. But skip the wreck dive on the 3rd day. Visibility and some weird very temporary slight stinging ocean critter there. Not a big fan of diving the currents either...awesome food and crew!

Quite a challenging but wonderful adventure.
The whole experience was a great adventure! I am a newer diver and our guide (Stefan) was very helpful and accommodating. A beautiful tour of the Similar Islands and a great way to get a huge variety of diving in.

Amazing service, diving, and value for money on the Genesis I
Several beautiful current/drift dives. Dive sites filled with hundreds of thousands of fish. We saw our first whale shark - a rare sighting in that area! - and dozens of other unique sightings of net eels, ribbon eels, stingrays, beautiful coral, anemones, and more. Stefan was an incredible guide and made us feel very safe while doing an excellent job of spotting interesting findings. We agreed we would dive with Stefan anywhere in the world! The crew - especially Stefan - did great making us feel comfortable and at home in between dives. The food was excellent. The boat has tight quarters but all services and spaces were adequate for what we needed for a short trip.

- The diving and dive guides were amazing: 4:1 diver-to-guide ratio and the guides knew a lot both about the marine life and about diving. The food was excellent - some of our best food in Thailand. Great camaraderie across the whole group and comfortable despite the small quarters.
My son, daughter, and I had an absolutely fantastic time aboard the Genesis I. Our dive leader Stefan was the best in every way. He made the trip fun, took us to great dive sites, and kept us safe. Al

Great Trip if you have limited time on Dive holiday
They have great prices on their trips and their staff is wonderful. I got the opportunity to travel with Genesis and it was the trip of a lifetime. The crew was so knowledgeable and made the trip that much more awesome. I highly recommend the Genesis for a budget-friendly trip.

Fantastic, The guides and crew were amazing along with the food and facilities making for a great few days diving
Of course the diving but this was made even better by the detailed dive briefings before each dive and then discussions following each dive about our experience and what we had seen. We didn't just dive but learnt a lot about the sea life and also learnt about my weights and positioning of them to help my dive experience.
