"Absolutely fantastic! We arrived because of the name, hoping for a quick fun dive, but we ended up staying because of the great staff! The USAT Liberty in Tulamben is spectacular; at times you forget you're diving on a wreck. We stayed overnight and loved the room. Everything was spotless, the terrace was very comfortable, and there was air conditioning. We'll be back!".

"Rai and Laura are amazing. They help and guide you with everything you need. One of the group members was really nervous, completely blocked, and wanted to give up. But they were incredibly patient and calm, and they helped him finish the course. Diving in Indonesia is just the beginning—now on to the Advanced certification!".
