Great dives and wonderful people

It was a wonderful diving trip. The crew did a fantastic job, and the dives were excellent and safe, even though the weather wasn't kind to us. The great food and fantastic people created an unforgettable atmosphere.

Would book again in a heartbeat!

Highly recommend!! Friendly staff, amazing dives, and some of the best dive days of my life :) The rooms are as expected, but are value for price. The food was delicious and always freshly made. I appreciated the well thought out operation - they provided various medicine if needed, electrolyte drinks that I thought were thoughtful.

Couldn't have been better 10/10

I booked the 5-day Similan Island tour on the Manta Queen 1! The dive boat is well maintained (cabins with private shower and toilet)and the Thai crew very nice and courteous, you will be welcomed here very warmly and there are no wishes left unfulfilled!From the course of the trip:Very well structured route through the Similan National Park, dive sites very varied, food 10/10 (fresh Thai cuisine, snacks, drinks tiptop)To the dive guides:Everything is super nice and you feel safe and in good hands with each individual.And in addition: Many thanks to Monja (my dive guide) for these relaxed TG's, I got a lot of interesting animals from her!If only because of her 5* for the trip

A truly memorable experience.

The diving was amazing, especially since I went before high season and so we had most of the sites completely to ourselves. I traveled alone and therefore was thrilled to have ended up with such a great set of people onboard. If we weren’t diving, we were laughing! And last but not least: the crew. I can not put into words how professional and friendly they were.
