Very rewarding trip

It has been a short but very rewarding life on board. Everything is very well organized, from pick-up and drop-off to the boat and the transfer after the trip is over to the airport or another hotel. The organization is very good, well-structured tempos, snacks and drinks between dives.Spectacular food.All the staff on the boat are super friendly and help at any time.The boat is old but has a lot of charm.The dive sites are well chosen depending on the weather and waves. The dive guides accompany you without pressure. Dives are 60 minutes.We are very happy to have been able to enjoy a few days on this boat and with this crew.

Great time on the Junk Liveaboard

Great Liveaboard on the Junk. The boat is amazing and the staff also. The diving was well planned. The best thing i think was the food. Congrats to the Cook Lady because her food was Michelin Star quality. I had a great time.

Great experience

First time liveaboard. Has to say it was even better than I expected. Everyone on the boat was very friendly, the staff were helpful and had prepared everything. They claimed that they had the best food among all the boats in Thailand, which can be true. Thanks to the cute chef we had tons of yummy food in between all the dives. Dive masters are very professional and made dives quite smooth. Basically they did all the things for us so all we had to do is enjoying the trip. I do recommend the boat even though the submarine world was not so colorful due to the warm water during the low season. I believe there would be a much more beautiful world waiting to be explored during the high season.

Food. Friendly staff. Boat.
