Fantastic dives sites, great crew, would do again
My liveaboard experience on the Manta Queen 2 was excellent, very professional crew and incredible dive sites. The hotel transfer service was a convenient way to start the trip. Big shoutout to the dive crew who helped put us in and out of the water all trip, as well as the chefs on board who kept a steady flow of Thai food flowing between dives. Dive instructors were knowledgeable and professional, I felt like they were willing to work with us to make sure we were seeing what we wanted to see on each dive, etc. Would definitely book again.

10/10 would recommend:)
This trip was amazing! I appreciated how the staff onboard really made our trip so smooth. The trip leader Woody gave great briefings and organized us well. We had small dive groups that were thoughtfully selected based on experience level so we could dive with people of similar air consumption etc. Chef Muay put lots of love into her cooking and I had some of the best meals I’ve ever had in my life- certainly the best meals I’ve ever had on a boat. I’m vegetarian and the meals I had were superb. For one of the more affordable trips to the Similan islands, Manta Queen 2 felt surprisingly luxurious.

Fun, memorable, worthwhile
This was an absolutely amazing experience! We had so much fun. The crew was extremely professional and knowledgeable. They were so friendly and helpful. It is honestly the best liveaboard experience I’ve had and I think I’ve done around 8 different ones. I highly recommend this crew and would return as soon as I can. Thank you all so much for your hard work

Great people, great diving
This was my first liveaboard and I had such a great experience. My dive guide Elsa was great at leading the dives. The chef, who let me call her mama, made sure we were well fed and really did make the best food. I have nothing but positives to say about the experience and I’m excited to dive with them the next time I’m in town. I did also book the liveaboard 2 days before so if you’re looking for a liveaboard that can accommodate you on short notice, this would be the one!

Best dive crew, food and service we have ever experienced!
We had an incredible time! The chef and her assistant were AMAZING!!! The food is some of the most delicious Thai food I’ve ever had. How she can prepare it so well for all different dietary requirements all in the small kitchen on a wavy moving boat 6 times a day is beyond me! After each dive she has a delicious meal or snack prepared and ready to feast on! I want to come back and just do a cooking class with her! She is incredible, you will not go hungry! The dive staff captain, engineer and boat boys are so helpful from the start to finish helping get your dive gear ready and on you and then pulling you out of the water and helping you get it all off they are SO GREAT! Our dive guide was Tommy we LOVED HIM! He was so nice helped us see so many beautiful different things and took incredible pictures and sent them to us at the end of the trip! I hope we can dive with him again next time! Overall we loved this trip and would definitely go on Manta Queen 2 again next time! Thank you for making it such a memorable experience!

Manta Queen 2 is the best!
Esteban was an excellent trip leader, and he was always entertaining. Our personal dive master Christian was patient, explained things thoroughly, and his laugh was contagious. We loved the whole crew, this was certainly an experience of a lifetime!

Exceeded expectations
This was our first liveaboard experience. We didn't know what to expect other than what we read in other people's reviews and we have to say it was great! The instructors were experienced, professional and just wonderful people, the crew were amazing AND we got lucky with the weather and all the other travelers on the boat. I think this trip might be the reason we now have to go diving all the time.
