GREAT SAFE VERY WELL RUN DIVING OPERATION
In spite of losing 2 days due to stormy weather we had a great trip with 4 days diving. Enjoyed all the dives because its what I love doing, we had very close encounter with very friendly and large eagle ray,saw turtles every day,did 2 night dives and saw many nurse sharks night hunting so in spite of losing bit of time saw plenty!

Good diving, good support, everything went smoothly!
Great to get out of internet connection for a few days and just focus on exploring some tremendous dive sites! Pretty early days and somehow always ready for bed by 8pm!

good organisation
WE love the hot shower after each dives and hot towells after night dives, it's a first classe service, everything was nice except the last day when we go back to the Marina at 9.00 am doing nothing to 4.00 pm, the crew reserve a taxi for us at this time to go shopping and diner outside, we went back to the boat at 8h30 pm. WE would like to be advise before because in fact it's a 6 days cruise and not 7, it means nothing to spend this friday on the boat doing nothing.

A 10 out of 10 adventure vacation
The cuisine was exceptional! The captain and crew were delightful, also very caring and conscientious. The dives were beautiful. We saw and learned a lot. There were 20 divers on the Turks and Caicos Explorer Liveaboard and we all had a nice time together. It was a peaceful yet active vacation and very satisfying. I would love to do it again.

Wonderful staff made for an amazing week
We enjoyed a comfortable week of diving and saw a wide array of sea life expertly guided by friendly staff. The food was stellar, the dive sites featured sharks, rays, eels, and turtles. Rooms were cleaned daily, excellent Captain Bob navigated us to a diverse array of sites, and the guides (Mollie and Tristen) were entertaining and informative.

Amazing Crew!
T&C has good weather and good diving. What makes this trip a must is the amazing crew on the T&C Explorer. Every one of them bends over backwards to make sure all guest have a good experience, all the while maintaining good humor and a fun attitude. The dive briefings were some of the best I've seen in 12 years of diving. Not only were we briefed on topography, navigation and currents, but each briefing had a deep dive (no pun intended) into a particular fish or critter found in T&C. I learned so many new things about fish I've been looking at for years. The dive guides are extremely knowledgable about the local fish and are happy to nerd out over a fish ID book during the surface intervals or after we're done diving for the day. It's worth noting that each buddy team has a choice to follow the guide or dive their own plan. This was somewhat unusual to me, but I appreciated the freedom for our small group to break away and look for critters on our own. The boat itself is quite spacious with lots of places guests can enjoy the sun or shade. The bunk rooms were small but comfortable. The food was very good. I would go diving with T&C explorer again in a heartbeat.
