Best liveaboard!
Amazing week aboard The Junk! A boat with a lot of charm and a crew worthy of the name! The dives were amazing respecting safety first throughout the trip! The cabins were ok, although old but you can't expect better given the historical side of the boat! I will do it again with great pleasure! The Junk wins the prize of my liveabord!

Similan Islands live aboard
The trip was incredible, the whole experience was so good, the staff were so helpful and took really good care of us all with all the dive equipment. We were fed like kings and queens and the food was all delicious! The dive sites were all so beautiful in different ways. Could not recommend this boat and crew more!
