Best of Thailand
A very nice trip offering the best of Thailand. The boat crew, Gai, Anne and Lee supported by the 2 lovely always smiling ladies who cooked and served us. And of course the boat staff who helped us gear up. Did the South Thailand dive sites which was a first for me.

Amazing…couldn’t of asked for a better trip
Cannot thank our crew and the staff members on board enough. They made our short stay unforgettable. Everyone so friendly, professional and made us feel like part of the family. Every meal was incredible! And there was plenty of! Our dive guide was amazing and we were lucky enough to see elusive guitar sharks…truly incredible. The rooms were simple but comfortable. Each day we had a dive briefing, a very clear plan of action so we knew what to expect. Truly cannot recommend enough and we rave about the Gentle Giant to everyone who asks about our Thailand honeymoon.

Varied beautiful diving
With great dives in the north and south in the Andaman Sea, this trip offered varied dives from beautiful coral reefs to always beautiful schools of fish and highlights such as leopard sharks and seahorses. Despite some poor visibility, the dives were relaxed and quite beautiful.

Tremendous experience, to highlight the group and the excellent work of the crew
The new friends after days of living together and the net dives and purple rocks and "the hand of John", although they were all very good and left us unforgettable memories, such as the explosion of life in the wreck of the King Cruisier
- Recommended for
- The crew, the cordiality and predisposition of the management and the instructors permanently concerned about the well-being of all
