Luxury Trips
Some divers live for maximum time underwater, so dedicated they'd happily sleep on the dive deck for early morning dives. On the flip side, many savor luxury during surface intervals - think on-deck HD movie experiences, bars stocked with premium drinks, indulgent spa treatments, and gourmet cuisine crafted from the freshest ingredients. For most, a blend of both worlds is the dream. Let's explore the most opulent liveaboards sailing today, offering divine onboard comforts and extraordinary diving adventures

Reviews about Luxury Trips
Tiburon Explorer, Ecuador - GalapagosExplorer Ventures Liveaboard Diving Fleet, 4 reviews Superlative in every way!!! Diving was simply phenomenal (including schools of hammerheads at Wolf Island , whale sharks at Darwin, marine iguanas at Fernandina Island, rays, sea lions, turtles and lots more). And the live aboard experience- food, facilities, service, extra gestures here and there, was exceptional. Highly recommend.Galaxy Diver II, Ecuador - GalapagosGalagents, 2 reviews 7 days in a Diver’s Paradise
This was our 5th liveaboard and it definitely took first place! Everything from the boat, the rooms, the crew, the food, the guides was 5 stars. And what to say about the marine and land life in the Galapagos. It was a dream come true. A big thank you to the Galaxy Diver 2 crew for making this trip so special for us all.Galaxy Diver II, Ecuador - GalapagosGalagents, 2 reviews Great experience
This cruise wasn't cheap, but it was worth the money. One of the best boats I've ever been on. It was hard for me to imagine the conditions on small boats with waves that were - the ocean there isn't calm. Great food, super competent crew, great dive sites, hot towels after diving... You get the feeling that the guides want to make your dreams come true and try to find the fish you want to see...The only thing that is excessive for me is the suggestion of tipping 10 percent of the cruise price. It is not mandatory, but the crew should earn adequately for the price of the cruise.Questions and Answers
