Travel Reviews & Destination Feedback
"Dear
Travel Agent, I just returned ...."

| What can I say; the boat (MY Manthri), crew, diving, water, islands, food, total experience went far beyond any expectation. I normally expect some little hiccup in travel arrangements when traveling this far (half way around the world) but I must say there were none. Everything went as soon as silk, from airport to boat and back, it was carried out with the utmost of professionalism. Thank you and your staff again for all the hard work. |

| "The dive operation (Maldives) on M.Y. Manthiri is superb, dive crew is the best I have seen on a liveaboard. On this trip air compressor went belly up one day. The crew was able to obtain parts for repairs in two hours, delivered by seaplane, and had it repaired so that we missed only one dive. It was very impressive. I am telling all my friends about your agency and great service you have provided for me. I am sure we will do business in the future." |

| Richard L. and Lynn S. are both fabulous ball room dancers; "The China trip was terrific. The biggest surprise, even though we have done Asia many times, was the enormous middle class, and the rejection of Mao/teachings. We got to ballroom dance many mornings in the parks while locals did Tai Chi! We danced with them on more than one occasion and it proved a wonderful bridge. We found Americans are safe and welcomed in China, almost honored...hard to find in many places these days." |

| "My stay at Kapalai Resort, Malaysia was magical; the diving off the house reef was great, and all those other divers carrying cameras obviously thought the same! And so convenient to Sipadan. The hand crafted villas were situated over the water… with the cool sea breeze… and what a beautiful sunset view. It was excellent! Thanks for the referral. |

My first trip to the Maldives for a dive trip aboard the brand new, luxury dive boat, the Ark Royal. I have to say, this is the finest dive boat I have ever been on!! I highly recommend staying in the suite...with it's wall of windows and the VERY large bathroom which includes a large shower, jaccuzzi tub, bidet, toilet and sink, along with a closet, you really do not feel like you are on a boat! The other rooms are are spacious and all rooms have flat screen tv's, individually controlled a/c, small refridgerators and lots of storage. The crew was excellent and the dive masters were great. And I saw my first whale shark after many years searching for them...that was very exciting. Along with all of the manta rays, eagle rays, turtles, sharks, eels, octopus, beautiful soft corals and even a few new fish that I had never seen.
This is a first class operation and the crew treated us like kings! They really outdid themselves keeping us comfortable and fed with some very good food.
I highly recommend the Maldives for exciting diving, warm water and beautiful sunsets! I hope to return soon to see more beautiful fish and sea creatures! |

I went to Sri Lanka for my first time and toured around the country with NKar Travel and was very surprised to find so much history and anmials. I did a quick trip, but saw so much! I did not know there were ancient Buddhas and temples dating back to the 1st century BC! Visited many temples and ruins and learned much about the culture. A highlight of the trip was visiting the Elephant Orphanage and watching them parade down a small street to the river. We watched them frolic in the water, laying down and drinking. It was very fun to see. Even got to pet a couple! Also saw some snakes, birds and lots of monkeys! A few were on the balcony of the hotel...lots of fun. Very nice hotels throughout the stay. Leave the driving up to the driver/guide as they know how to handle the traffic, which can be a little exciting at times. You may have to close your eyes to not get too worried;).
I hope to travel around more of the beautiful countryside and visit some of the many parks, looking for more of their animals! |
