The Amira is the most beautiful and best diving boat I know. As always, everything went perfectly. You can see that the ship is regularly in dry dock and is well maintained and cared for, it always looks like new. The crew is great, all super friendly and helpful, and a well-rehearsed team. Perfect guidance by cruise director Nora.

Wonderful dives at Kommodo. The guides were excellent and very dedicated - as was the rest of the crew! The ship and the cabins are spacious, designed with attention to detail and simply great. A small deduction for the food, because there was a little too much European cuisine for my taste.

Raja Ampat (the 4 Kings) has cast a spell on me... awe inspiring beauty

Amira was great and the whole team and also the service were 1A. We will definitely come again :-)

The only thing that we personally did not find so good were the in our opinion very high prices, for example, for drinks (6.20€ Bitan large, Heineken 4.20€ small) compared to the average prices in the trade (Indon.beer 0.5l 36.000IDR, Import beer 0.33l 36.000IDR). Even the prices in the hotel were cheaper!
The same goes for the tip suggestion (20-25€ per person/night). After all, the cost of living and also the average salary (about 260€) cannot be compared to Europe.
The crew of the Amira is outstanding and that one should pay them better not to lose them...no question, but with max. 19 guests each employee (25) gets after 11 days approx. 167€ what 64% of the Indonesian mtl. average earnings are. Just think about it, and maybe adjust the prices or
Proposals something adapt and give the guests more leeway.
We know from Egypt a price of about 75€ per week per person...more always goes. On the Amira is a felt directly the gun on the chest. We always like to pay more for good or very good service, but rather voluntarily!

actually everything was very good in the care as well as food was also suitable. only with 3 things I was somewhat dissatisfied.
Cabins: in the lower ship was mine, very spacious and bathroom also ok. But the Amira is a wooden ship and as soon as it drives in the night to the next dive spot is the engine and also the crackling so strong that you can not sleep and I'm not talking about romantic beam crunching but as loud as next to a small jet. if you need a noise sample that I can send you gladly.
i can't recommend the cabin in the lower ship, the cabins above didn't seem to have the problem.
wifi: you don't have time to buy a cheap sim so it would be much better to have that. would be provided. and the cost can be offered as an option.
3) concerns the booked flights.
I had unfortunately not realized but the. were rather bad in the transit between times. very long stays between flights.

the diving area was for me so far ok. except for the few muck dives I would not have missed. hammerhead shark we would have liked to see but there was unfortunately none. corals and fish were still intact.

Our first liveaboard was just a hit! The AMIRA is really a great experience. Everything is just right: Lots of space, very clean and well maintained, extremely helpful crew, sensational food and very competent and friendly cruis directors. The dive sites on the Komodo tour were simply exhilarating. The highlight was diving with the manta rays in Manta Alley. Big fish, lots of small fish and lots of macro things are almost guaranteed. The colorfulness of the reefs is wonderful. We think, our next liveaboard we will do again with the proud AMIRA. Many thanks to the whole crew for the great experience. Last but not least the travel agency of Urs Seleger, who once again made a fantastic trip possible for us.

We had a very nice diving trip!
The whole organization of AAA was perfect.
We recommend but to book the cabins below deck.they are larger and better air-conditioned.
The food was very varied and also delicious. Only at breakfast there were deductions in the B grade. There was in the morning unfortunately only, for us unusual, sweet bread, which was also bad to toast. Topping unfortunately only one kind of cheese in foil and otherwise jam, but you can cope with. We ate omelettes every day. The dinner was sometimes a little tight. But otherwise everything was great. We even had fresh sashimi and sushi. Unfortunately, the visibility was very bad up to a maximum of 30 meters. Therefore we often had no chance to see big fish. We had only two manta rays, a few sharks and turtles. Otherwise for macro fans and for fans of untouched coral nature, a paradise. The dive guides were a very happy bunch. There was also a lot of singing in the evenings. The whole staff on the ship was always eager to see us happy. We recommend you book a stop over on the outbound trip. Maybe a few days resort at the end. Otherwise it can all get pretty tiring. It took us 33 hours each way from door to door. Final feedback from us. We would book this trip again. And many greetings to the crew of the Amira.

This is my second time on the Amira. This time Komodo was in line and I was not disappointed. Nora organized everything very well and responded individually to the wishes of the guests. The dive guides are great and the house band on the Amira is legendary. Also the shore excursions on Komodo and the sunset trip on Komodo were further highlights on the tour. You could spend days and weeks on the Amira - time went by so fast. Anytime again.

Cenderawasih Bay. Very nice trip with the highlight: 2 days of pure whale sharks around the clock. Varied, because we dived in Cenderawashi Bay and before at top spots (Penemu, Kri) in Raja Ampat. The diving in Cenderawasih Bay itself is rather mediocre, but was probably due to the extremely warm water (31 degrees) during our trip. But I was there because of the whale sharks and to be allowed to dive so close with these beautiful animals for 2 days is an unforgettable experience that you should definitely have done!
