5.00Family of 5 Diving and snorkeling! No troubles, only bubbles!! We have done several dives around the world and BB Divers impressed us. - 3 beautiful stops (choice each-time to dive OR snorkel…. we added a second dive while on the boat and paid after) -Amazing lunch buffet- thai food, but no spicy -ORGANIZED- from the first point of contact via whatsapp, they sent all the information i requested within seconds, and continued answering questions for the following days leading to the dive. -upon arrival the paperwork and gear fitting went quickly and smoothly with instructors attending to every question -Dive Instructors were the highlight! Chang, Delphine and Oscar were THE BEST. -We had 3 ppl diving and 2 ppl snorkeling. We were able to interact and see eachother in the water and spend time on the boat together -Our 8 yo now has a mission to get certified in 2 years after diving with Instructor Chang. Our friend’s 16 yo son did his first 2 dives ever (Discover Scuba) with Delphine and can’t wait to get certified as soon as possible. We 100% recommend for diving or snorkeling near Koh Chang! Thanks for an awesome trip!

5.00I had a fantastic day today, diving for the first time! I was very nervous but Markus guided and helped me throughout, as did the rest of the instructors. I was so proud of myself afterwards and really appreciated all the support from Markus and the team. I would really love to come back and do my Open Water PADI certificate one day. Thank you BB team!

5.00We had an excellent organized diving trip with two dives and can recommend this experience without restriction. Everything was professionally structured and reliably implemented, from booking to hotel pickup and return. On board there was a pleasant atmosphere with a friendly, helpful team. Even for the physical well-being was well taken care of lunch and drinks were included and very good quality. Our instructor Ivo introduced us to the world of diving as beginners with great calmness, patience and expertise. The theoretical basics, handling of equipment as well as the procedures underwater were explained clearly and understandably. This created a sense of security and trust from the first moment. The two dives themselves were impressive. We were able to enjoy the fascinating underwater world in a relaxed and safe company. You can clearly see that experience, professionalism and passion for diving come together here. Conclusion: An all-round successful, well-organized and eventful diving experience. If you are a beginner and want to get into diving safely and competently accompanied, you are in the best hands here. Anytime again.

5.00We had a mega day, our dive instructor Marcus was mega . He was super responsive to me and my daughter ( 12) and had a lot of patience. The dives were great even the islands approached just a dream , hardly any people , white beaches . The food was great and also with drinks we were well supplied. The dive course was super explained, you felt safe and the excitement was taken away well. All in all a wonderful experience and definitely recommend... we will be back
Safe, Fun, best diving experience possible.

5.00Signed up for the Discover Scuba experience having never dived before. Immediately was greeted by our awesome dive master Steve and his soon-to-be Dive master in training, Oliver. My wife and I had these two all to ourselves for the rest of the day, while they slowly and clearly explained the days agendas and made it so much fun. The dives were easy and fun and absolutely exceeded our expectations. The experience was so good, and my faith in Steve and Oliver, that at the end of the day I signed up to do my open water course. I spent two more private days with the two gentleman and am now a proud open water certified SCUBA diver! Top to bottom the experience was first class, and I always felt my safety, comfort, and learning objectives were at the forefront of their mind. I couldn’t ask for better treatment and will 100% be diving at BB divers when my wife and I return.
Many thanks to Adrien and the whole team
