I truly enjoyed my experience with Master Liveaboards. Alexa is so through and patient with guest it is inspirational. The level of expertise of Ghee, Marif and Alexa is exceptional and the eye of spotting sea life is brilliant. I truly enjoyed getting to know and experience diving with the guides. I cannot say enough good things about Alexa, she works very hard and uses all her energy for the guest to maximize their enjoyment. Regardless of the detours needed we never missed a beat on the trip and that alone is enough to applaud the crew for their endurance for change and shifting things around to accommodate all and make everyones experience as maximized as possible. Knowing the dive professional world and watching them all handle each situation with care and attention was overwhelming positive. I cannot say enough good things about my trip to Komodo, thank you thank yoo

We had a fantastic trip. Thank you! Some of the things that stood out to me: The safety protocols and briefings were excellent. Best of any liveaboard I’ve been on...Our cabin was nice and we had everything we needed...Dive guides were amazing! Garth and Ghee were above par and truly excellent. Meals. As someone with an allergy I was super impressed by how my circumstance was addressed right away by Alexa. And in addition the chef was able to make so many things accessible to me! ...I love the “welcome back” after every dive. Made my heart soar...Last note to Alexa and Garth who really went above and beyond to make it a great experience as cruise directors. Thank you.

Fantastic trip. Excellent trip leader. Fabulous crew. A real sense of joy, fun and professionalism on the boat. Great job on choosing dive sites for currents etc and no other dive boats where possible. Liked the safety aspect. Have a real sense from the first minute that this was a professional crew who knew what they were doing. Great variety of dives. Excellent cabin and dive deck. Loved the space and how the boat is set up for divers. We will try and be back.
