What People Say About Sawasdee Divers Krabi

Tripadviosr Travellers Choice Award
  • I really enjoyed my discover scuba diving experience with Sawasdee divers, the whole thing was great. Yann and Tash were very friendly and easy to deal with in the office. Juan was our instructor on the dive and he was great. He explained everything very clearly and helped us to complete some basic exercises before completing two incredible dives. The whole time diving felt very safe and relaxed and there was plenty of beautiful fish to see. He was also very friendly and good company. The food was also delicious. I highly recommend this experience and wish I had more time in Krabi to do it again. Thanks to all at Sawasdee.

    I took my Idc with Yann Guillet at Sawasdee divers. Yann was there for us all the time if we needed answers or help with something . He pushed us to do all the learning in a good way. I also has some personal issues , but he still backed me up, that’s was highly appreciated. He made us all believe in our selfs, and all of us passed💪🤩 I can highly recommend Sawasdee divers. They got a nice team, good divers/guides/instructors. Thank you Yann🙏

  • Excellent centre de plongée ! Toute l’équipe est très sympa, mention spéciale à Yann pour son accueil et surtout Benjamin qui a été mon instructeur pour l’Open Water. Tout est fait pour vous mettre en confiance, les explications sont claires et pédagogiques, et vous apprenez de manière ludique en toute sécurité. De magnifiques souvenirs !

    Very honest and sweet people, good diving and very good briefing before and after the dive. Today I went on a fun dive with Tash as my buddy, she was really helpfull and fun! Would def recommend diving with sawasdee 🙂 We went to koh sii, beautiful dive site with loads of cool corals, snakes, nudiebranches, seahorse, frog fish,… a lot of cool stuff! Also the second dive was a nice spot, saw many stingrays 🙂

  • Une des meilleures écoles de plongée en thailande ! J ai fait ma formation de divemaster avec Sawasdee. Professionnel et bien organisé, le staff est au top, chaleureux, pédagogue, et super accueillant. Ils prennent le temps de répondre à toutes vos questions et vous chouchoutent. 7 ans plus tard je suis revenue faire un reactivate et l équipe est toujours au top! J ai plongé avec Alex et Ben. Tous les deux hyper sympas et pro. Les plongées autour de phi phi sont juste superbes. Les iles locales aussi. Je recommande !

    1ère plongée à 67 ans pour accompagner ma fille. Ambiance très sympa. Encore un grand merci à Ben pour son accompagnement, ses explications claires et sa gentillesse. C’était génial, trop beau et je n’en reviens toujours pas d’avoir pu vivre cette expérience incroyable.

    Merci à notre Instructeur Renaud, mais aussi à tous les autres pour leur bonne humeur !! Prise en charge, explications, lunch etc c’était très bien ! Moi discovery et mon mari niveau 1, nous avons partagé ce beau moment la tête sous l’eau !! Renaud m’a pris en charge sans vraiment que je le sente, c’était top.

  • star rating  Loved the diving experience with the guys from Sawasdee Divers !! I completed my PADI Advanced Open Water Scuba Certification with them today !! Although a highlight is completing the course, I have to tell you why I think it was an outstanding experience and great value for my money. First, they made it very convenient for me by coming to my hotel in advance of the class to sign me up and get started except the payment and provide the details for the online “classroom” instruction, which I did the day before my first of a series of five open water dives. They provided transportation to, and from the boat, which is about 10 minutes from my hotel. The team of Dive masters came equipped with all the equipment we needed for the Dive, which is great and saved us the time of going to the shop to get fitted for wetsuits and BC and such. The islands where we dove are right off the coast and probably a 20 to 25 minute ride to get there. For these dives, we took a long tail boat which was perfect because we had a maximum of five customers and three instructors. The team is very professional and Nico did an excellent job preparing me for my advanced open water training exercises, as well as the other recreational divers. The highlight of my experience was The diversity of marine life and corals is amazing off the coast of Ao Nang Krabi. Diving here doesn’t get much better than this !!

    star rating  My husband and I are experienced divers (750+) and our friends along for our trip had fewer than 20 dives each. Christelle at Sawasdee put together the perfect package of AOW classes for our friends and private boats with their top instructor, Nico Rapin, to ensure we had a terrific experience. Sawasdee’s communications and customer service are outstanding and our dive guide Nico was the best we’ve ever had anywhere in the world. They thought of everything — hot tea/coffee with our breakfast on the boat, fresh street snacks, huge delicious lunches and Nico even sent us the photos he took underwater every day. Couldn’t have been happier with Sawasdee!
