A unique experience
Saw more than 15 mantas in Manta Alley in South Komodo. The sunset on the viewpoint was beautiful. Overall the trip was well planned. Apart from the amazing dives with Mantas, sharks, turtles, we also had a lot of fun on the land, visiting local village, Komodo dragons, sunset and thousands of bats.

Amazing diving, amazingcrew, higly recommended!
Our liveaboard to Misool and Central Raja Ampat was just wonderful. The abundance of fish, the healthy corals, and some of the 'big' attractions made the diving absolutely stand out. Add to that the great and fun group we had on board and the absolutely amazing, happy-energy crew, and this has just become a trip to remember. Furthermore, we loved the safety standards on board and we felt that the crew was in control of everything, including safety, throughout the whole trip (enabling us to have fun and not worry). Thank you Raja Laut and the amazing crew for an unforgettable trip!

Fabulous week in Komodo
We had a fantastic week aboard Emperor Raja Laut diving in Komodo for our honeymoon. Flor and Sophie guided us safely through 20 dives at a variety of sites with knowledge of and respect for the local reefs and wildlife. We saw a huge diversity of wildlife, including manta, turtles, octopus, cuttlefish, and countless nudi, among others. Sprinkled in were land excursions to see a local village, a pink sand beach, and two hikes - one with an incredible view of Padar island. The boat staff was lovely and kept us comfortable throughout our stay. FYI there can be strong current at some sites in Komodo, so this is not an itinerary for freshly certified divers.

Great Liveaboard in Raja Ampat
The Diving in Misool and Central Raja Ampat was world class! We saw a lot of different marine life and very healthy corals. Staff of Raja Laut was amazing and the customer service was great from the start to the end. The boat was really nice and sturdy, even when the seas were rough. Cabins were a bit small but very fuctional. I was lucky and had my own cabin, because the boat wasn't full. Overall incredible liveaboard.

A beautiful and very comfortable boat
Everything from start to finish was excellent- from quality of rental equipment to the lovely post dive drinks (juices or teas depending on weather). The crew were super nice and so helpful. Food was plentiful and excellent - bowls of fresh fruit available all the time.
