Tripadvisor Reviews
Copenhagen, Denmark
We had the most incredible time at our three day tour to Great barrier reef. We were snorkling at different locations around great barrier reef and living on the boat. We came out to the reef where no other boats were at the time and we didn't feel like tourists at all. The staff, the other participants and the surrounding were great! The food was so delicious and we we're incredible spoiled the entire trip. We were snorkling in the night with reef sharks, during the day with so many pretty fishes, corals and with a big sea turtle. We couldn't ask for more - it has been so awesome and we will recommend it to everyone we know. Thanks to the staff and the other participants for an incredible experience! :-)

Dedicated and coordinated crew were constantly anticipating your well being on the voyage to the outer reef. The night dive turned out to be enjoyable while discovering a wide range of marine life. Scuba equipment is entry level and adequate for recreational depths. When you take into account the cost of gear hire, food, accommodation, and fuel, it’s worthwhile for novice divers to complete their Open Water training on the Great Barrier Reef.

Had a great time on the 3 day Liveaboard. Nice diving spots with lots to see, good food and an amazing crew. Definitely recommend. Diving is unguided, however the reefs are easy to navigate and you learn quickly. They provide everything, nothing to worry about.
