Best crew possible, amazing spots to dive and friendly vibe. I really enjoyed my first diving experience and could even swim close to a turtle ! Food was great, and playlist was perfect. Huge thanks to everyone !
Thanks for booking Rum Runner
Can't thank Richard, JP , Massy enough for providing a truly memorable experience that was second to non on affordability and enabled our party to have 6 certified dives (inc night dive) . Other providers make it too expensive but Rum Runner tries by affordable prices and delivered to the point that as locals we will for sure be back! Even provided food - Awesome
Thanks Alex!! great to meet you all and see you again next time.
Whilst we were particularly lucky with the most perfect weather conditions you might imagine, I can't say enough about how good the trip was, especially for the price. 6 legit dives for a small added premium on top of the base trip - i don't know if you could find better value in Australia. Thanks Richard for managing the trip, JP for the great captaining work, incredible food and entertainment, Tom for such patience and care with the divers, and to Rena and Miso for their excellent work too. Many thanks to all for the great trip, and to others looking for a trip - they have my recommendation for sure. Go for it
Thanks Ash!!
