Excellent all round service and at no point did we feel rushed or hurried along. The boat is the best looking on the dock and not overcrowded. The staff members are friendly and attentive with the host Nasser leading by example. The diving is not to be missed. The area where we dived is beautiful and it was a very unique experience. On board food was great as too was the free massage. 10/10 would recommend this experience

From the punctual pickup to the briefing, tour implementation, lunch and fun factor, everything was carried out professionally and very cordially!
