We have had an amazing time on MV Ambai in January 2024 cruising Sorong-Misool-Dampier Strait-Sorong in 9 days. Phil is a fantastic cruise director, the whole crew is extremely kind and skilled. The services is extraordinary, the crew thought of every little detail you could wish for on a liveaboard, from delicious food and drinks to fresh towels, perfectly prepared equipment and well presented dive briefings. The architecture of the boat is perfect for a liveaboard with a spacious dive deck in the back, big comfortable cabins, lots of space in the living/dining room and on the three sundecks (including enough shade). We felt immediately at home and we highly recommend MV Ambai and Wallacea Dive Cruises. And the diving in Raja Ampat is - of course - world class.
