Amazing trip really ultimate Raja Ampat
The whole trip was amazing from beginning till the end. We felt always welcome on board and the crew took care of everything to make the trip an amazing experience for us. The dive sites were amazing and the dives were well prepared and organized, starting from the briefing till the end on the boat when the crew took care of our gear. We managed to see a huge variety of wild live from pygmy seahorses to giant mantas.

Wonderful 2 wks for
Great diving - loved the healthy marine life from the nudibranchs to the pacific manta rays, and the abundance and color of hard and soft coral. Since the boat is small, there were only 10 divers for the 12 days of diving and we became a tight knit group.

- Staff was very friendly and attentive. Dive briefing were detailed, accurate, and followed under water. Loved the small number of divers and the 1:4 Guide to Diver ratio.

Great Diving with great people
Sea life and Nature in Raja Ampat is simply stunning. The Ship was great, but the Crew made this trip special. They were friendly, funny, helplful and always smiling. The Dive Guides found every little seahorse and pointed out every big fish. We had a really good time under and over Walter.

My first liveaboard experience at La Galigo exceeded all expectations
The people of La Galigo ensured that the trip was extra special. The cabins and the boat was impeccably clean. From every meal to all the post dive drinks and snacks - it was all delicious. The dives were very well orchestrated with detailed briefings. The dive guides took utmost care of every diver and ensured we spotted everything from macro life to pelagics.

Flawless
Everything went off seamlessly. The entire trip was perfectly accommodating in every way. The food was absolutely fantastic and well above what I was expecting. The entire crew was welcoming, professional, and went out of their way to help whenever they could. The dive briefings were extremely thorough and made the dive easy because you knew exactly what to expect. The master divers where great and took good care of you above and below the water. They did absolutely everything for you and welcomed you back with delicious snacks and warm drinks. My first liveaboard and all future ones I will be doing have a hard standard to live up to. Would highly recommend this ship and crew.

A wonderful experience thanks to excellent crew
The trip was brilliant. I can’t fault the crew who were always so helpful and friendly and really made the trip extra special. The service on board was amazing - the way the crew looked after our kit, prepared the tenders, provided drinks and snacks after each dive and served meals was second to none, and always with a smile. The food was delicious and there was so much choice (for veggies too). Three course dinners, a choice of eggs at breakfast, endless snacks and hot drinks - what more could you want? I felt very well looked after. The diving of course was incredible. The sites were visited were beautiful and once we got to Misool we never saw another group in the water. The guide’s knowledge of the sites was exceptional and their ability to spot the tiny critters was outstanding. The boat was a little creaky and leaky but generally the facilities were pretty good and it didn’t affect the experience too much.
