Unforgettable liveaboard experience on MQ3!
My time on this liveaboard was incredible. Everything was perfectly organized, and both the diving and the life on board exceeded all my expectations. The equipment provided was high-quality, well-maintained, and the boat crew took care of absolutely everything: helping with entering and exiting the water, setting up and removing equipment and always being there with a smile 💕. The cabins were clean, comfortable, and air-conditioned, making the stay even more relaxing. A big thank you as well to the entire housekeeping team for keeping everything consistently clean, tidy, and comfortable throughout the whole trip. We were spoiled with delicious food around the clock – several warm buffet-style meals a day, plenty of snacks and even ice cream. A special shout-out goes to the kitchen staff, who worked tirelessly to make this smooth and enjoyable experience possible. Between dives, there was never a boring moment. There are lots of cozy places to relax or also to find privacy if you want. MQ3 has truly the perfect setup for comfort and entertainment. The dive sites were spectacular, with highlights like Koh Bon and Richelieu Rock, offering an incredible variety of marine life – from schooling fish and vibrant reefs to breathtaking macro sightings. Diving with our guide Noah was fantastic. I always felt very comfortable diving with him. He did everything to make sure we felt safe at all times underwater and had a great eye for spotting marine life. The group itself was a wonderful mix of ages and nationalities, creating a warm, friendly, and fun atmosphere where everyone connected and shared experiences. In short: a beautifully organized, welcoming, and absolutely unforgettable liveaboard adventure. I can recommend it 100%, and I would return in a heartbeat 💗!

Unforgettable liveaboard with the Manta Queen 3
Our time on the Manta Queen 3 was just fantastic! The crew (Tul, Koi, Ong, Lod, Maeo, Suea, Ted, Nont, Aek) and the guides (Adri, Jack, Troy, Sergi and Noah) were super warm, professional and always in a good mood. You felt welcome from the first moment.We were allowed to explore the underwater world with Adrian (Adri) as a dive guide. An experience we will not forget. His passion for diving is immediately noticeable. With a lot of calm, patience and enthusiasm, he showed us the fascinating diversity of the sea. Thanks to his trained eyes, we discovered numerous small and large sea creatures that would certainly have remained hidden from us on our own. Adrian's relaxed composure makes every tour pleasant, at the same time he always conveys a high degree of security. We felt completely comfortable and well looked after with him and recommend him without reservation.The dives were fantastically beautiful, with impressive underwater world, great visibility and perfectly organized procedures.The cabin boys have also enriched our diving experience. With their friendly nature and helpfulness, they always ensured a good atmosphere and supported us in everything. Whether preparing the equipment or getting in and out of the boat. They were always attentive and reliable. Their humor and positive energy made every trip even more beautiful.We were also spoiled with culinary delights: Every day there was delicious, varied food, which was prepared with a lot of love.A big praise also goes to the housemaids, who always cared for our rooms with a lot of care and attention. In addition, we were always warmly supplied with drinks by them after the dives. A service that made our stay even more enjoyable.An all-round successful experience that we can warmly recommend to every diving enthusiast.Our highlights were the dives at the dive site at Richelieu Rock. It was just a fantastic dive site.

This trip set the bar and I will be coming back!
This was my first liveaboard experience and it definitely set the bar! Both the boat crew (Capt. Tan, Meaw, Chef Kay, Aek, Lod, Ong, Non, Ter) and diving crew (Lolo, Matt, Troy, Jack, Woody, Noah) were very friendly and professional. We performed a total of 19 dives over the trip and each one got better and better. My dive guide, Matt, was very attentive and made sure I got the shots I needed with my camera! Woody gave great briefings, as well as the rest of the guides. The food was fantastic

Top liveaboard suitable for all levels of diving
The tour was really very nice, the entire crew was always in a good mood, very helpful and motivated. There is nothing I can fault about this trip.The beach trips during the breaks were also super cool, we were taken to the beach by speedboats and then had an hour to explore the islands or go swimming.

My first live aboard, i loved it!
This trip was amazing! It was my first live-aboard, and i absolutely loved it! The staff was super friendly, the guides did a great job guiding us and making sure our dive groups were balanced and similar in air consumption. The good on board was absolutely amazing and we were spoiled with so many delicious meals and snacks. The program they made for the divesites was perfect, if necessary they would change it, so we would get the best possible experience. We got great briefings and were taken care of perfectly. Only the beds were quite hard and not co comfortable, but they were fine for a decent nights sleep and i never had any problems with sleeping. Would definitly recommend 10/10

Dive! Go to bed! Dive! Go to bed!
From the crew to the dive guide to the friendly and professional, this is my first liveaboard trip. I was lucky to have met such a boat, which was the perfect end to my first liveaboard trip. Next time I come to Similan liveaboard with friends, I will choose MQ3!

- The crew and dive guide were great. Although the food is single, it can be full. The cost performance is too high.
