Embarked with some concerns based on negative Undercurrent review of
earlier trip on Paradise Sport. Any concerns were completely dismissed
after a couple of dives and meals.
Service was superior, crew gracious and helpful without exception, dives
excellent and our all-advanced diver/all-nitrox group was dazzled time and
again. No concerns with dive profiles, nothing but positive support from
dive crew. Food aboard this vessel was outstanding time and again!
Ashore visit to local village was a definite highlight and we were greeted
with warmth and hospitality. Mike Ball Dive Expeditions is doing a
superior job of hosting great dives in PNG and we would return in a
heartbeat! Congratulations to MBDE for turning around a negative
perceptions! Absolutely loved this trip! |
