Great trip, really a fun crew with lots of dives.
Really enjoyed the walls we dove on this trip, great sites! Dive guides were great and Jo was really fun with her costumes and edutainment regrading our dives. Chef Stan prepared snacks and meals that everyone loved and kept our energy up for the dives. Really nice not to need to set up dive gear for each dive. Simply unhook your reg and they fill your tank. Fun trip with great dives!

Wow... and thank you
An unforgettable experience. This trip will be one of our best dive safaris, because of the friendliness of the staff - thank you Hart, Ash, Libor and Dan - Miguel's cooking (just that, it's worth the trip!), not to mention the jovial captain JF. We loved it.

I am hooked
The crew makes this trip so special. Lots of very experienced well traveled people all working as a well oiled machine. Extremely friendly and accommodating to everyone’s needs or requests. The dive briefings were not only funny but informative which allowed me to dive with fellow diver and work on my navigation skills. I will repeat this trip with my wife or alone in the future.

One hundred stars 🌟
My 3rd time on Explorer 2 in 3 years . This time things got so much even better in terms of hospitality, the food quality , the crew attention to detail and fun loving attitude. Every day was just perfection . Can’t wait to go back . The captain is outstanding, experienced , lovely to deal with . Crew is simply amazing . They are also focused on safety as priority, so all feel relaxed . Diving sites were fantastic , we were only ones . The food was delicious and plentiful. Cabins and the boat cleanliness was immaculate. The week felt like being with an instant family . Amazing diving vacation for the money . I truly recommend this liveaboard and I have done so many .

Top Notch Experience!
The crew was awesome and the diving was lively! Jo kept things interesting with her hilarious, yet informative dive briefings. Never needed for anything as the crew's top priorities were that we had the best experience possible and that we always had what was needed. Highly recommend!

Fantastic!
I am a relatively new diver, and this was my first live aboard trip. I couldn't be happier with the experience and I heartily recommend this trip. The crew is fantastic, always busy and hardworking (despite the small number of divers on this trip). I did 22 of the 27 dives (including 3 night dives and 2 drift dives), covering 12 different diving sites between Providenciales and West Caicos. All the sites are beautiful, with a variety of corals and animals to look for. The dive masters are experienced and always helpful. The whole crew is friendly, hardworking, and skilled at what they do, from helping fix faulty equipment to cooking excellent food. I already look forward to my next opportunity to go back!
