How we collect and publish reviews
Where they come from. Our reviews are gathered from independent review sites and from guests who share feedback with us directly after their trip. They come from people who have actually travelled on the tour. Some longer trips are made up of shorter tours we also sell, run back to back — where a review was written about one of those legs, the review says so.
Why some are edited. Many of our guests travel in their second or third language. Where a review is hard to read, we lightly edit spelling, grammar and punctuation, or paraphrase a sentence for clarity. We never change the rating, the meaning or the sentiment, and we never write a review on a guest's behalf.
Reading the originals. Reviews sourced from public review sites appear there in their original form, and can be read in full at their original source at any time.
I did some introductory diving off the boat and couldn't have asked for a better instructor than Kaylen, who was helpful and supportive. The crew were lovely and funny.
We did three introductory dives with Finn, who balanced skills and safety while letting us enjoy ourselves. We'd planned two but added a third because the sites were so good.
Three beautiful outer reef sites and a crew who prepare everyone well. My beginner dive instructor Daan was so calm and happy that he eased my nerves, and I came back and got certified. Good food, a helpful photographer and never crowded.
We did our first scuba dive and loved it so much we did a second. Not too many people on the boat, and Scuba Steve was fantastic.
The reef spots were amazing. We tried scuba diving and Haylie and Giles were patient and kind when I struggled, and now we're thinking about getting certified.
We booked one introductory dive and snorkelling at the other two sites, but loved it so much we added a second and third dive on the spot. Both instructors were awesome, though the onboard photos were pricey.
