An unforgettable, rich experience
The dives were the absolute top highlights - from biodiversity to variety. The guides were knowledgeable, and really enhanced the experience with solid sharing and familiarity with the dive sites. The food was incredible and the boat crew across the. Board are incredibly helpful. Slight pre-dive rushedness of things was made up for by pace underwater and aboard. Also, the boat was very clean, and spacious.

Great liveaboard
The liveaboard with the Manta Queen 1 was an unforgettable experience! The route through the northern Andaman Islands – Similan Islands, Koh Bon, Koh Tachai, Richelieu Rock and the Boon Sung Wreck – offers some of the best diving in Thailand. Richelieu Rock in particular impressed with its biodiversity. The crew was consistently friendly, helpful and well organized – you felt in good hands at all times. A real highlight was the food on board: It is hard to believe how such incredibly delicious and varied dishes were conjured up every day in such a small galley.All in all, an absolutely recommendable safari for all diving enthusiasts!

Incredible experience as my first liveaboard
It was my first liveaboard experience, and I was a little nervous at first. However, I quickly realized there was nothing to worry about. The crew was incredibly kind and helpful, and they provided everything you might need, including diving gear, meals, snacks, and even medication. I experienced seasickness for the first time, but it improved quickly after taking the medicine they offered. They even hosted a sunset party on the boat on the last day, which made the trip even more special. If you are planning to visit the Similan

Great experience!!
I felt well taken care of all around. The whole team was just great!! Everything was taken from you. Unfortunately, it had rained all week with a lot of wind and high waves. However, the dive sites were chosen in such a way that we had very nice dives. The atmosphere was also very good. The abundance of fish was enormous. Tic - our dive guide - gave the impression that he even knows where individual sea creatures are;-). Thanks again to Peter, Monja, Etienne, Naidoo, the kitchen girls, the extraordinary boys and especially Tic. Thank you, you did a great job!!
