Verified Reviews from Real Guests
What an incredible experience! Our guides, Michel and Kelly, delivered exceptional guidance, patiently walking us through every step, from gear operation to the adventure's progression. Their dedication to our comfort and understanding was truly empowering. They even captured stunning photos of us with the marine life. Their warm and personable nature made us feel like we'd known them for years. This unforgettable experience was undoubtedly a highlight of our trip, leaving us with cherished memories!
When we arrived at the dock, they told us that visibility was too low for a safe experience. The couple who run Snuba were apologetic, and spent some time chatting with us about conditions. Our payment was refunded before we got back to our Airbnb. Note: traffic is horrible on the Dutch side. Plan on an average of 10kph to get down to Snuba.
Absolutely loved the experience! Kelly and Michel were amazingly kind and talked us through the whole thing. They were able to transform nerveus divers into confident ones and have extra care and patience to those who needed it. Amazing first SNUBA experience (with great rum punch) and I’m sure more will follow
Our group included three generations and everyone had a great time. Kelly and Mich were knowledgeable and supportive and helped first timers feel comfortable. We appreciated them keeping groups small so the experience was personal. Highly recommended!
Had a great trip, I'm scuba certified but my friend was not. Michael and Kelly made sure everyone was comfortable and worked with our individual skill levels on the boat and in the water and made sure we were comfortable all throughout the trip. Couldn't recommend them enough. Got to see some cool reefs, fish, super clear waters. All around great time. 10 of 10
This was a great cruise excursion. Located a short walking distance from the ship. After our wonderful experience we still had time to walk into Philipsburg for a great St. Maarten's experience. We did the VIP excursion so that we could do this in the morning and so that it was just the 4 of us. Michael and Kelly are great. My son took to it like a fish to water. I on the other hand was a lousy learner. I just could not breath out of my mouth instead of my nose. Once I gave up trying and just pinched my nose I had a great experience. I took a camera with me, but if you don't have one don't worry. Michael takes some great photos and the purchase price is very reasonable. This is something I would definitely do again and suggest to friends.
