An unforgettable, rich experience
The dives were the absolute top highlights - from biodiversity to variety. The guides were knowledgeable, and really enhanced the experience with solid sharing and familiarity with the dive sites. The food was incredible and the boat crew across the. Board are incredibly helpful. Slight pre-dive rushedness of things was made up for by pace underwater and aboard. Also, the boat was very clean, and spacious.

Highly recommended
During the days I was there I had a very good experience. The staff was aware that we did not miss anything at any time, they were very friendly and the cooks were great. If you have little time to do a life on board it is phenomenal although it is a bit intense as there are 4 dives, two of the days and two the last one before returning to land.The very friendly instructors always dedicated enough time for the briefings before each dive so that we had the necessary precautions in each of them and they made an effort to make us comfortable and enjoy each dive.In short, highly recommended!

Fantastic value for money with spectacular diving, I highly recommend Manta Queen liveaboards.
The diving is spectacular, particularly Richelieu Rock & Koh Bon. The days are well structured so you can just enjoy the dives, eat well as soon as you are back on the boat, and then relax before the next dive. The food is excellent with lots of choices to cater for all tastes. Snacks and drinks are available all day which is convenient. The boat is very comfortable - cabins are well air conditioned when you need a break from the sunshine. The boat crew are extremely helpful and friendly and made us all feel very welcome. The dive instructors shared many interesting details about the dive sites and what to look for on the reef. I learnt a lot and thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

Easy and nice diving
We were only 14 divers on a boat for 22 divers which was great! Less people in the water and since there’s is only three toilets on board it was perfect we were this few customers. Good dive guides, good food and staff.

Excellent Similan LOB
Whole LOB was very well organised. Guides and crew took great care of us and we enjoyed the stay and dive experience. Although the room seems small, bags can be placed under the bed so it was just nice and cozy.
