Customer Review
”Totally superb and absolutely world class diving, The diving is absolutely world class more fish than I have seen, beautiful reefs and an abundance of life that takes your breath away. People make places; alone Tubbataha is totally amazing but with the team across all aspects this place was made super special. Big thanks to Toni, Juffrey, (Jolibo) Kenneth, King Karl and Janace + the steward team and dive-deck crew who were all outstanding in their service and fun! Thank you – this trip on this boat is a must for all divers – without question.” Recommended for: The diving, the crew and the whole experience of being out in the open ocean.
Customer Review ByAndy F, from: United Kingdom scored the MY Philippines Aggressor 10 out of 10; Review courtesy of Liveaboard.com, for more reviews and information click here: MY Philippines Aggressor.
”Exceptional experience! Our, double deluxe, was very nice, roomy even! The guides were excellent. They changed the leaders several times during the week. While we enjoyed getting to know each of them, we would prefer to keep the same leader the entire week so that we all get comfortable with each other. I feel like the late departure from Puerto Princessa, combined with the arrival on Friday early (for Saturday disembarkment), robs the diver of a day in the beautiful Tubbataha Park. More dives is always better! Also, just for your information: no night dives in Tubbataha due to Tiger Shark activity. Overall, excellent!!” Recommended for: Cabin, diversity of dives, friendly crew.
