GUEST FEEDBACK

Naomi "'This was my second time in 3 weeks on the Summertime, so it is quite obvious I enjoyed the trip. This trip was just as good as the first. Chris is a really friendly skipper, I did 2 dives this time with Harry which were even better than the last time and as for Karla, what can I say!!?? She is a great laugh, great cook and generally a great host. Thanks a million guys and you never know, at this rate I'll be back a 3rd time!"

Chris "We've been traveling 10 months now and this has been the highlight of our trip! The whole trip we were pampered. I felt I've learned lots from the crew about the places we visited and things we've seen. We were treated more like friends than passengers. Thanks guys and hopefully we can do it again...'

Jo "Thanks for everything, I had an awesome time, there’s nothing you guys could have done to make it better! Scuba diving was fantastic – best experience I could have wished for!  The food was great – loved the BBQ’s, but must say the best place on the boat was the hot tub!!"
