Testimonials

Below are just a selection of the comments that we have received from our customers who have booked holidays or learnt to dive with us:

S. Knight, January 2012
.... thanks Ian for your instruction on my open water course on 14 and 15 jan. I was grateful for your patience and experience, and also for you making the theory parts more fun than the DVD would otherwise have been! The group successfully completed the qualifying dives at Wraysbury at the weekend with Melvin, and I know the others join me in thanking you for teaching us the theory and techniques so well.

T. Mujakporue, November 2011
Many thanks for the course.. I personally had a blast and I’m pretty sure that the rest of the guys did too.

F. Sharkey, November 2011
Just a note to say thanks for allowing me to join the teaching sessions over the last few weeks. I've really appreciated it, and I am feeling more confident now to do the Open Water referral when we go to Thailand.  Thank you so much it's been a massive help!

A word of thanks for the introductory lesson you gave Hannah at the weekend. She had a great time and is looking forward to her 10th birthday when she can complete her PADI.

S. Bloomfield, September 2011

Thank you so much for arranging my diving course this weekend at such short notice.  It is something I have been wanting to do for years and it was a rare free weekend for me to be able to do this.  I absolutely loved it and slightly addicted I fear!  Taff was superb and please thank him for his time and patience.

T. Tyldesley, September 2011

We just wanted to let you know that we had an amazing time diving in Thailand and saw all sorts of creatures and corals. Many thanks for the great training - it really made our holiday. Two dive masters commented on how well trained and confident we were.

S. Anderson, July 11

...just a quick note to say than you for the really great session that Paul and the boys had with Jenny yesterday. Greg has already decided he wants to do more and started lobbying hard! So, I will probably be in touch again with you before long….

Anyway, we really appreciated Jenny’s calm and upbeat style, so please tell her how great she was.

S. Dunne, June 11

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the trial dive last Tuesday!

J. Lesley, April 2011
I just wanted to thank you for the dive course - i really enjoyed it (despite the cold!) You have a very patient manner and run the course at the right speed to keep all levels happy. I now feel very confident to go diving in warm blue water!

 

A. Olssoman, April 2011

I did enjoy the Open Water dives a lot and I am looking forward to the advanced course on the 16th, the itinerary looks great.

 

P. Lachance, March 2011

I had a great time. I have to say that diving in the UK was quite challenging vs the Maldives but I look forward trying it again.

 

J. Smith, January 2011

Thanks for sorting the group holiday. It is up there with the best!! I will definately come again.

 

A. Innes, January 2011

It was just the most brilliant holiday, thanks so much again. I'm encouraging my sisters to join me for the next one - whenever that'll be.

 

C. Pendleton, November 2010
I’m back from the most wonderful holiday in Egypt! And... my scuba was simply amazing!!! I was so confident that my instructor said he could have passed me as an advanced diver... So... I’m really looking forward to going back and getting some kit and doing my advanced dive license.

 

P. Berraondo, October 2010

Just to say a huge thankyou for taking good care of Judi and I on our course - we both enjoyed it so much and are already looking into how and when we can complete this part of the course. You are incredibly patient and I can see why your details say that you guarantee a pass! I will be sorting out as and when will be the best time for one or all of my boys to join you to do the course.

 

K. Sestakover, July 2010

Just to say a big, big thank you for the weekend and for putting up with me. I'm very happy I've done it and I survived!! I had a big grin on my face all day today at work!

 

C. Palmer, July 2010

Thank you and Neil for Alice's scuba party, the girls enjoyed themselves and are still talking about it now.

 

A. Innes, July 2010

I’m of the mind now that if I can do what needs to be done in such an ‘exotic’ location as Wraysbury Lake where that could be seen was brown, brown and more brown and the odd green weed floating by (oh yes, I did see one fish), and enjoy the experience, then anywhere where visibility is more than 1 meter is going to be a blast.

Right, must dash and put the ‘lippy’ on for my passport size photo and send off for my official certificate..

 

Thanks Mark – It was brill.

 

K. Dolan, December 2009

We had an absolutely brilliant holiday, the hotel was fab, staff all lovely, nice rooms, great pools and restaurants and the snorkelling was brilliant! The weather was lovely and feeling all very relaxed!

Thanks so much for organising our trip, it was brilliant and a much needed chill-out before the arrival of a noisy baby next year!.. bliss 

G. Kirman, December 2009

Got back this morning after a tiring flight from Sydney, but no worries.
Everything went fine thanks to you. We really enjoyed the whole experience.

Thank you once again for all your help.

 

A. Correia, September 2009

The reason I am writing to you is to let you know that we just successfully concluded the PADI certification for Open Waters in Hurghada.

More important, I would like to share with you that while we were there we often heard our instructor there saying that we must have had a great instructor in the confined water session for, for example, the great way we set up the alternate air source or the way we set up the weight belt (with the strip bend) and some other things that others were doing in a poor way.

So again thank you for the lesson and the hints you gave us.

 

Mrs V Spencer, Sharm El Sheikh August 2006

“…I want to thank you for the excellent CD of the holiday in Sharm el Sheikh. We have enjoyed looking through the piccies..”

…Thanks again for everything, but in particular the way you looked after Alexander and for your great organizational skills!”

 

Ms J Folwell, 2006

“Thanks again for all your help setting up the Sharm holiday.”

 

Mr T Wookey, El Gouna – Egypt June 2007

“Brilliant! Great Hols thanks Mark.”

 

Mr R Thomas, September 2007

“Thank you very much for Wednesday; it was nerve racking initially and then exhilarating!!! Having 1-2-1 tuition was great and I appreciate your patience with me even if it did take me ages to work out how to clear my mask properly!!!”

 

Mr D Drake, Sharm el Sheikh October 2006

“We’ve just returned from our holiday in Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt & I just wanted to drop you a quick ‘thank you’ note for your time and effort.

All twelve of us were really impressed with the standard of service you provided for a group of our size. As far as the diving goes, it was literally out of this world! I think I can speak for everyone in the group that we all felt the trips to various reefs & dive sites were very professionally organised & given that some of our group were beginners, they too felt very safe & catered for & is something they will pursue….Can’t shut a couple of friends up about it! Really was a trip of a lifetime”

 

Mr N Johnson, Proctor & Gamble (Senior Management Conference October 2006)

“I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say many thanks for organising the conference for 70 of our most senior personnel. I particularly appreciated the level of detail you drilled down in order to ensure that the whole event ran smoothly, efficiently and within budget. The feedback from those that attended was very positive with a number stating that it wa the most organised and memorable conference they had attended. High praise indeed from a very demanding bunch!

Those who you taught to dive, were completely spellbound by the experience, I have forwarded on your details as they all wish to continue their diving education.”

 

Ms J Daley, August 2008

"Thanks for all your help. You were by far the most professional and helpful person that I spoke to arranging the trip."

 

Mr A Bell, July 2007

"Thanks for Sunday. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and I've been raving about it to my mates."

 

Mrs P Timmins, May 2008

"Just to let you know we had a really wonderful holiday - the hotel and all its amenities were all very good! Thank you very much once again for all your help and look forward to dealing with you again."

 

St. Johns Beaumont School, February 2007

"Huge thanks again for all your help yesterday, the boys clearly had a ball and were talk of the dorm when I delivered them back!"

 

Mrs C Pearce-Thomas, November 2008

"You have a gift of putting people at their ease and I am grateful that you have patience too."
