Rustic charming trip
A very characterful boat, loads of charm , great crew The food was excellent and plentiful, (the only minor thing was organizational: they always served after our last dive immediately, so people arrived 30-60 mins late for dinner and scattered inside and outside, which didn’t result in a common supper experience) which was a bit strange. At some point dive guiding was a bit inattentive but we could arrange a satisfactory change after raising the issue y It’s an old boat but charming and i would always come back!

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 first dive experience in Thailand
Relaxing week to ring in the New Year. First time diving in Thailand. The guitar shark encounters topped the underwater experiences. Really great divers with similar values and interests.

A ship with personality
I booked the The junk because I really liked the ships apperance and every dive when we went back to the boat I felt joy and adventure compared to other boats around us. This ship definatly has personality and you could tell the staff loved the boat as well. Great safety and briefs, the food was really awesome and the staff was great as well so only good things to say. I recommend this trip to anyone who likes an adventure when you go diving.

Came for the dive, stayed for the food.
The friendliness and service level of the crew exceeded expectations! I'm sure every review before has talked about the food, so I'm just gonna skip that. Great value for money.
