The best shark spots were visited and we had unforgettable diving experiences. Unfortunately, the boat is in need of renovation (mold in the cabin, smelly bathroom), the food was ok, but was often too little.

The Emperor Voyager was booked, but I was able to rebook the Emperor Virgo. Therefore, my rating refers to the Emperor Virgo.
Very cozy, the dining tables are in the salon. Great food as always ????.
The cabins / WC are always cleaned daily. There's nothing bad to report from my side.
I can only recommend the entire Emperor fleet 100% ????????????????.

The guides from emperor voyager were friendly and helpful. Note: After not seeing a whale shark we went diving there. After this we went back to the boat Voyager while we had enough time to look for the whale shark again (unfortunately).
Food on the boat was sufficient with ample choice.

The domestic flights were carried out at impossible times, was pushed on the airline Maldivian. Also, the luggage of a few guests arrived late, as in the past with the barefoot. If it's possible, book international flights directly to Gan / Kooddoo

Some cabins have some steps on the lower deck in sleeping and bathroom, this can cause some discomfort. Otherwise lovely soft mattress and plenty of closet space.
Diving team is very experienced and full of knowledge about the underwater world, very informative. The food is super!

Twice in a row the tour "Best of Maldives" with fantastic dive sites and wonderful experiences under and above water. The crew - from the dive guide to the chef to the crew - puts in the work and offers top service.

Bathroom WC has a strong unpleasant smell. Ship has no outside lounge, so you could only sit inside comfortably - a real minus point. Crew and Dive Guides very eager and nice. Service and food very good. Good timing and well organized.

On the diving ship Emperor Voyager we liked it very much. Super service, detailed briefing, good rental equipment, tasty and varied food in buffet form, helpful and well-positioned staff. Also the diving group was well mixed from different countries, which we found very interesting.
Drinking water can be refilled free of charge at large water dispensers. There is 100% biodegradable body and hair shampoo in the bathroom.
Since neither of us were Nitrox divers, we were encouraged to take the course. At one point the dive leader actually let us surface on our own as the rest of the group (all nitrox divers) had not yet reached no-decompression time. I would have appreciated it if the whole group had surfaced together. We have about 100 dives but still feel a bit insecure diving alone.

As also WeDive mentioned this, from our point of view experience is really important for such liveaboards; i.e. at least 50 logged dives, as it has partly quite strong current & "Washingmashines".

Another minus were the bed pillows, which smelled quite penetrating müffelig. At certain dive spots it also had up to 10 dive boats at the same time and corresponding traffic under water, but Voyager can not do anything for that.

Split-stay requests are made on site by the hotels or ships easily and uncomplicated, be it from island to island or from island to safari boat or vice versa. Some require a new PCR test when changing. Various guests of our ship including ourselves have made use of the split-stay.

Malé City can be visited since a few weeks without any problems, i.e. the capital is open for tourists with the usual restrictions (mask in indoor areas and in crowds).

The entry and exit form Maldives is a bit cumbersome to fill out, especially with mobile devices. Finally and after some error messages and crashes, however, everything worked out fine. The form must be filled out mandatory before check-in but max. 24 hours before entry.

Since there was a lot of wind, the visibility under water was unfortunately not so good. Unfortunately we didn't see any shark in the Southari Atoll. But many other fishes incl. mantas and various sharks & turtles, unbelievable this biodiversity and how the nature is still intact there, apart from the coral bleaching. We even saw shining sea plankton. On early morning dives and even on the last night on the ship in the port of Malé - fluorescent plankton was flashing in the toilet bowl in the bathroom during the flushing process in the dark; unbelievable: what a nice farewell gift!

Very good ship with competent crew. Good food, unfortunately only little regional cuisine but that is certainly a matter of taste.
Cabin equipment absolutely sufficient. Something annoying was a dripping air conditioning directly above the head of the bed, but otherwise good ok.
Dive spots for shark and big fish fans certainly breathtaking. For us not so exciting because we like to photograph a lot in the macro area and for that the dive sites are simply not made. But all in all there is a lot on offer including night diving with manta rays, which was extremely impressive, and snorkelling with whale sharks. You have to be aware that this is not a beginner's dive site, as the dives are almost exclusively drift dives. For Hailiebhaber certainly a top destination, for all others only conditionally recommendable.

This evaluation refers to the Emperor Leo, because it was obtained on arrival instead of Voyager.
The whole crew was great and gave you the feeling of being "among friends", which created a very pleasant atmosphere.
