Great time with a fantastic crew! - The crew was friendly, knowledgeable and so helpful and patient especially with getting the kids set up with equipment. Snorkelling spots were incredible! Good lunch and snacks. My kids has food allergies and it was assuring to know they don't use nuts in their kitchen.

I made a tripadvisor account just to leave my dive instructor ROMAN a 6/5 review. Highly recommend! - He was so patient and kind, especially with my being very nervous for my first ever ocean dive. Thank you for helping me cross off the biggest item on my bucket list! ♥

Top trip, top crew, top vessel and aged friendly - The vessel, the skipper and the team could not do enough for us. Such a professional setup and experience delivery. The opportunities presented on the GBR got better with each stop that Calypso XII made. I took the trip with my mum who celebrated her 70th birthday recently and isn’t the fittest of people. The entry and exit to the water was made easy enough for her by the vessel design and the crew were very attentive throughout. I’m so glad that I chose the Calypso to make this trip.

Great day out. - Great day out snorkeling and diving. Those who dived within the group didn't think the diving was value for money due to the dive being cut short. They resurfaced to change their goggles, then didn't go back down. Might be better to take your own to get the full dive experience. The pictures they take are ok, reef ones are generic which is a bit disappointing as they didn't capture any of us near the reef. We still had a memorable day and these were just minor things. Highly recommend this tour company.
