Food schedule
Really amazing liveaboard experience with Similar! The accommodation is clean, tidy and comfortable with good ventilation and lighting. The food is fresh, varied and delicious with daily different menus. The crew and staff are super friendly, thoughtful and professional. All diving arrangements are well organized and they respond quickly to any requests. Everything exceeded my expectation. Highly recommended and will definitely come back again!

The best diving trips with friends
All the dive spots were amazing, and the guide introduced many creatures, making it a great time. Also, safety management was thorough, so I could dive with peace of mind. Also, the Thai crew was very kind, and every meal was delicious. We all want to come here again next season.

Wonderful budget liveaboard.
Everyone was very friendly, was able to make friends from around the world. Dive staff was knowledgeable and helpful, saw many cool species. Food was excellent mostly Thai cuisine. Can’t wait to go again!

good, well organised budget liveaboard
The pre-breakfast dive at Elephant Head Rock was superlative and particularly memorable. This was an excellent liveaboard trip - my fourth at the Similans - and good value for including 11 dives over 3 days/3nights. The food was plentiful and good, with tasty snacks continually appearing outside of meal times. The boat boys were efficient - and necessary - in safely getting us in and out of the water. Dive staff/instructors were friendly, organised and professional. Kh. Noon was a great and lovely group leader. The boat was perhaps not big enough to comfortably host 22 guests but the space was well managed and it is only this packing efficiency that allows such a reasonable tour price of course...

A fantastic experience with very nice people.
For me, it was actually a big highlight. I really enjoyed the diving and the things I saw. The diving instructors were very good and knew what to expect. Furthermore, the atmosphere on the boat was very good and the food was very tasty and varied.

A leisurely and relaxing journey
Thanks to Davy for the careful explanation of the itinerary and the kind Chinese translation of Doris, we were able to relax and enjoy our first liveaboard. The room is small and has to share a bathroom, but everyone is sharing the space and the sun deck to watch the starry sky and the sea breeze. Thank you Manta Queen 5 for giving me such a happy dive trip.

Memorable first liveaboard experience diving in the Similan Islands
In this diving trip I was able to get Advanced Open Water and Nitrox and take advantage of these certifications and use it towards the dives. The diving instructor, Noon, was very friendly and was around to answer questions about the things we were learning. The boat crew was very helpful always being on time with the meals and also helping us put on our diving gear every time. The cabins were simple but bed was clean and the size was appropriate. I would recommend this diving team and the Manta 5 for all my friends. The Similans were beautiful to explore in the beach and under!
