Very friendly crew, informative briefs. Never been on a boat where the crew put your fins on.....great!
The vessel very stable and well laid out. Huge dive platform. 5 Stars!
The meals - OMG - almost as good as my mums!!!! And that's a pretty high bar!
Loved the fact the crew let us do our own thing, great work guys (and girls..) :)
Night dive at Challenger Bay was my highlight. Very happy boy!! All in all a brilliant experience. I hope to do more in the near future and will certainly recommend this company.

Extremely friendly, professional and accommodating crew - loved all of you! The boat is comfortable, spacious, excellent for access to diving. The meals - Alex, you rocked it out - can you come back to Canada? The diving was magical, diverse, unbelievable. Coral formations were over the top and exceeded my expectations. The staff definitely my highlight. Simon you totally made me comfortable in unknown waters. Shannon, you are so accommodating with a heart of gold, I could go on but I am running out of room....The crew were AMAZING!!
Thanks to all staff for making my first liveaboard adventure one that I will cherish for a lifetime! Thank you!

Friendly, fun, professional, knowledgeable and safety conscious crew. The vessel is pleasant and roomy. Meals unbelievably awesome - an experience of deliciousness. Crystal clear waters, mostly still and always something new to see. My highlights: Sharks at North Horn, inverts at Steve's Bommie and swim-throughs at Admiralty Reef Site.

Extremely friendly, helpful and professional crew. Spacious vessel with small number of customers and great living areas. Meals - lots of variety and catered well for me being a vegetarian. The diving was very safe, professional and fun with small groups, fantastic sites and no other boats around. Shark feed and different sites with lots of variety were my highlights.

Crew was knowledgeable and professional. Vessel has many creature comforts I did not expect (like WiFi), I was impressed. Meals great, I never went hungry! The diving has been some of the best I have seen. I can expecting sharks and turtles and I saw sharks, turtles and much, much more. The shark feed was a highlight as well as the few unexplored areas. If weather permitted, it would be cool to see more unchartered sites.

Renee and Cat are fantastic. They were so patient with Ken and I. Spirit of Freedom is a nice boat and very comfortable. The meals were excellent - Alex did a great job. Diving for beginners - Cat and Renee were the best. Our highlights were the current/drift dive and Cod feeding. Everyone onboard are hard workers.

Everything was amazing! Thank you so much for a fantastic experience. My only regret is something beyond your control - the visibility - but you helped us all make the best of it; gave great advise and support to make all our dives the best they could be, and I had the best time! Thank you, Thank you!!

We loved our trip with the Spirit of Freedom. The conditions weren't perfect (recent storm had come through) but the staff was tremendous and we had some truly unforgettable dives.
This was our first liveaboard and we both had a great time. The food was great, and the staff was always available if needed.
The highlight of the trip was definitely the Ribbon Reef dives, especially Cod Hole,. Pixie Pinnacle and Rod's Rock. Tons of sea life, great clownfish and macro animals.
Again, we want to thank the staff for a great, professionally-run trip. It's not easy getting down from Missouri, but if we can do it again, we will definitely be working with Spirit of Freedom again.

No question, your crew are the best, and that's not limited to Liveaboards! Spirit of Freedom vessel is excellent, meals also excellent. The potential for the "WOW" factor was present at almost every site. Garden of Eden, Lighthouse bommie, Vertical garden my highlights.
The way the crew were always eager to help me with my disabilities - I never felt I was a burden, just another guy who loves to dive.

Exceptional crew and captain. Extremely well organised and comfortable vessel. Meals well thought out, with variety to accommodate all. Every dive was interesting, different topography, well guided, great dive locations picked out.
The unexpected shark feed on the last night one of the highlights.
This was a truly and exceptional journey with an unbelievable team of people. I WILL BE BACK!

Your crew are great. Working hard to make things enjoyable and fun to be around. Spirit of Freedom vessel is very comfortable. The cabin beds are so nice and the whole set up is quite luxurious.
Meals very good. I don't think I'd find better fare. Everything is just right.
I've been wishing to see the Great Barrier Reef for myself and now I have. It's one of the most beautiful places on the planet. I feel like I could just live down there. Can't get enough.
Overall, I love this place.
