The best investment with the best liveaboard. Miss you all :)
Very good, love the boat people and how Anna took as to the best dive points with the safety first. The only thing that was missing was the beach party which other boat did have despite the weather.

Superb quality, price and staff. Incredible!
Superb diving cruise in the Maldives! The boat is brand new, the food excellent, but the real plus is the team on board who always take care of us. Special mention to Ana, our amazing guide, who knows all the best spots! An unforgettable experience.

Cruise at the top between beautiful dives, comfort of the boat and welcome from the staff
The advice and answers to questions on liveabord reassured me and guided me to book. Then the comfort of the boat, the rooms, very nice staff and the service without overdoing it (as I had the case in Egypt) but always smiling, excellent food. The dive boat is a real plus! We weren't too close to preparing. The rented equipment was pretty decent except for the fins I must say which were really not suitable: by paying 250 usd for the equipment I expected some quality but for the fins it is really a failure, especially with so much current, you have to be able to swim efficiently and I often lost energy and air ... Otherwise for the rest everything was fine.

Northern Wonders: the team ( and the whale sharks!) made this a great trip
Great 10 days with too many dive- highs to mention: whale sharks , SO many mantas. Manta night dive, big stuff and small stuff! Lukas & Anna made a great team as boat managers and the crew seemed to all work seamlessly together - meaning that even with 3-4 dives a day, the transition for every dive was as easy as possible . The daily schedule worked really well, and the team managed a few curve balls (replacement dhoni) such that it had minimal impact on the trip. Chefs Nandana and Romesh provided fabulous curries and endless fresh fruits, veg dishes etc. Asanga and Johirul were always cheerful & super attentive at meal times . Adam had an enormous smile every morning when we got on and off the boat and the entire boat and dhoni crew and captains kept us safe and in/out of the water cheerfully & efficiently. Joe was our dive guide and brought his laid back Fijian vibe with him, making dives a pleasure . Aqua Queen was a really comfortable boat. The result of all of the above was that 25 dives over 9 days never felt exhausting. I would recommend and hope that we can return to do the Deep South itinerary .

Modern yacht, top service - anytime again
I was a bit skeptical at first, as there have been only a few reviews so far – which is simply because the boat is still very new. I was all the more positively surprised: very modern ship, exceptionally large cabins and bathrooms, plus a super friendly team. I was particularly impressed by how flexibly and attentively individual wishes were addressed – several times. You can tell that a lot of commitment is being done here. For me, it was an all-round successful experience that I would repeat at any time.
