Best value for money trip with classic Richelieu Rock that never disappoints
My third time in the Similans and the boat crews are getting increasingly efficient and considerate. The dive groups are got off the boat, and back, with speed - exactly what you want from 4-dive days. There was never any waiting for equipment / dinghy pickups in this tightly-run ship. Along with the amazing chefs, the Thai crew really wants you to be comfortable and happy, and that service-quality is many leagues above the quality of the actual boat and the price you pay for it. Was lucky this time to get a pair of very chill, competent dive guides (Lolo and Noah) and a trip leader Bert who was on top of everything from the start without being obnoxious, a rare balance these days. My one complaint: we only got 3 dives at Richelieu Rock, compared to the 4 that these trips usually plan. I'd be quite happy to forego the more efficient travel times and get an extra dive at RR instead.

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!

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...

Above my expectations
The diving was obviously amazing. But what really made the trip was the main dive instructor Marja who did a really good job of setting the vibe. The food was amazing and the thai crew really helpful, smiling and caring. I enjoyed this trip a lot!

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.
