Why you should book with us?

We humbly think that we can offer you the best service. Here’s why…

We are independent of any boat. This cannot be said of all agents and certainly not of the boat owners. We work for YOU the customer, not the operator. That means that we recommend the best boat for you based on the information you give us. We will not push you towards a particular boat if it’s not suitable.

We do not sell all boats, we only promote the boats that we have experience with and that we trust.

Tourism Authority of ThailandWe are here for you. In the unfortunate event that you have a problem while you’re here, we are available to support you, not half way around the world. You can call us at any time, you can visit us at our office. This is important. Beware of booking with a guy on facebook whose office is his rented house.

We are fully insured and bonded with the Tourism Authority of Thailand. We have the correct licenses for operating an online business in Thailand. Papers are available on request.

Insider knowledge, local know how.  We know the ins and outs of the dive industry here. We know what’s going on behind the scenes. We’ve got a direct line to all the boat owners. We also know how to get things done here, we didn’t arrive yesterday. Between us our team has over half a century of experience diving and living in Thailand. We can advise on hotels and restaurants in the area, where to stay and what to eat are crucial to a good holiday.

Multilingual. We have quite a few languages covered including Thai, English, German, Italian, French and Spanish.

More choice. Some divers contact us already knowing which boat they want to book, but most are looking for options. We will give you a list of available boats with a full breakdown of prices, inclusions and exclusions. We do not charge for this, or for our recommendations. When you are ready to book we can hold the spaces for you while you make your other travel arrangements. We do not charge to hold a reservation.

project awareBest price promise. We do not charge a fee for payments by credit card or paypal. We are constantly adding new special offers (we advertise these on the blog, on our facebook page and on twitter).

If you find a cheaper deal that is genuinely on offer and available through another agent we will match or beat it.

Loyal customer discounts. We like to reward our returning customers with discounts on second bookings.

If you come back again and book another liveaboard we’ll give you 5% discount. Come back another time and we’ll give 10%.

Multiple booking discounts. Book more than one trip and we’ll discount the package price. Book some day trip dives or other tours after your liveaboard and we can offer discounts.
