I’ll have to join you in a passage from Raja to Komodo or the other way around! Cruise Directors did a great job modifying the itinerary due to conditions and making the whole experience enjoyable. Thank you! My dive guide (Ungke) is incredible, finding the tiniest specks of critters. After one particular dive he was so excited that he hustled my still wet camera and asked “Please pull it up!” – searching the ID books revealed this pinpoint creature as an “undetermined shrimp” – so cool! The boat; I don’t have any great ideas how you could do this better. Crew did a great job with post-dive camera rinsing … thanks. The crew; suberb crew! The food; among the best!

Second trip to this area. After more than 6,000 dives globally this is the best diving in the world. We plan on returning and bring a boat load of friends with us!

We have traveled all over the world and staying in luxury hotels and I’d put Arenui up against any of them. The staff goes beyond the call on EVERYTHING! We’ve already booked our next trip to come back. PERFECT!!! Thank you. The boat; excellent facilities that lend themselves to a luxurious, relaxed atmosphere. The diving; there are no words to describe just how AWESOME and DIVERSE the diving in Komodo is!!! The diving; warm, funny, kind and catering is how I’d describe the entire family on the Arenui. The food; yum, yum, yum! Eat, dive, eat, dive, eat, dive!! Phenomenal food at every seating.
Kelly
Even though this is the only liveaboard I’ve done I don’t think I would ever go on another unless it was the Arenui! An unforgettable and amazing experience. I’m really going to miss the crew! The diving; Wawan was an excellent dive master and really helped me improve my skills! The crew; everyone was amazing. The whole crew went above and beyond to make sure we were always happy! Tony and Anto were very attentive. Wayan and Arta were always helpful too!

Overall the trip was excellent. The crew is terrific. Our DM Wawan was fantastic. He really made our trip a wonderful experience, especially for Kelly. I would have no hesitation in recommending the Arenui to anyone! The most outstanding feature of this trip was the crew. In every department they went above and beyond in their efforts to make our trip enjoyable. Debbie and Jerry did an outstanding job in making sure everything seemed effortless to us while we know this in itself is a true skill.
