Just completed my Advanced Open Water Diver and Nitrox courses with the exceptional instructor, Victor! His keen eye and professionalism led me to encounter leopard sharks, blacktip sharks, and a myriad of sea creatures. A truly unforgettable experience!

04:36 01 Sep 24

Amazing day diving, and I actually proposed to my partner under the water with the amazing help of our amazing dive master Victor who found the spot, filmed it and kept it all a secret. Well organised and good food on the boat. We did Phi phi island 3 dive trip.

08:31 21 Aug 24

If you are planning for a dive. Look for Timothy Mayor. He’s very detail and gives time for practice and errors. Very patient with teaching. I had someone worst before. But Timothy Mayor is the man to go to for your course. I took Open Advance and nitrox EAN40 all thru him. Best guy in town.

12:04 17 Aug 24

I took the Advanced certification course and my instructor Tim was very friendly and professional.

12:00 17 Aug 24

Tim , Thank you for being such a super awesome Dive master and helping me through to get my Advanced Adventurer certification.

09:23 17 Aug 24

Very helpful staff. Did my scuba here with somkid and it was an amazing experience

15:57 15 Aug 24

Through out the whole diving trip, me and my friend had a lot fun either on the ship or during the diving activity. Coach gave out a detailed and understandable instructions to us, she also answered all of the questions we gave out. We experienced a wonderful and memorable diving trip there and we looking forward to join next time

13:04 14 Aug 24

First time diving, from start to finish the crew and instructor Tim made us feel safe and confident. Completed two fantastic dives, would dive with them again.

Wietske Van Elsdingen-Swart

02:40 13 Aug 24

We had a great day and felt very confident with Kann And Lem as our dive masters.

10:01 12 Aug 24

Took my advance course here with Alla and Andre. They were fantastic! I had lots of fun and the food from each day were really good. The course here compared to the USA was a lot cheaper. They are SSI AND PADI. I highly recommend this place for specialties courses and or open/advance water certification.

Absolutely professional, I booked to do the Open Water and I loved it, they have worried at every moment that everything was perfect and the instructors, both Tim and Kid, are incredible, thank you very much for the good weekend you have given us and for having made everything so easy 👌🏼

11:02 10 Aug 24

I really enjoyed taking part in the course. Very nice and flexible instructors, recommended!

07:09 10 Aug 24

Great dive with Phuket Dive Tours, David was very quick to respond to questions i had for my group and we quickly came up with a solution that was perfect for the 8 of us. Nice private boat and instructors were very professional and friendly. clear briefings that was tailored to our needs.

09:50 07 Aug 24

When my 11 and 13 year old sons wanted to try out scuba diving, I made it a point to research options with safety as the top priority, but I also wanted to make the experience fun and educational. This would hopefully inspire them to continue recreational diving and gain even more confidence in the water which they already love. Phuket Dive Tours has exceeded my expectations and I have no qualms about recommending them or returning to them next time we are in Phuket. We went for the scuba diving certification package instead of the full open water diving certification because of our sons’ ages and time constraints. Beto was assigned to us and he was an excellent instructor. He was very good with his young charges and at all times had their safety as his top concern. I can tell he takes pride in his integrity and credibility as an instructor and genuinely wanted his charges to properly learn diving and enjoy the water which seems to his beloved second home, a conclusion I came to from our brief interaction.

09:49 06 Aug 24

Had an amazing time diving with Phuket Dive Tours - the tour was booked from home before we travelled and the communication - from Dave- was top rate. In resort we were picked up and transferred to the boat prompt and on time and then taken on 3 dives featuring amazing locations, lots of tropical fish, manta rays and turtles, as well as a spell swimming through a ship wreck. Kan, our guide, was top rate from start to finish and the staff on the boat took care of everything - looking forward to our next dive already!

20:10 05 Aug 24

Our dive master Som Kid was the best! He was a great person to dive with and he was very knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly recommend diving with this company and request Som Kid.

15:56 03 Aug 24

My best diving experience in Thailand. During our trip, Me and my son used the services of several dive shops in Krabi, Phi Phi and Phuket. And diving with Phuket Dive Tours was the most organized, well prepared and fun dive experience we had.The guys are professional from the easy ordering online process to a very comfortable boat and good quality leasing diving gear. The experience continued with Somkid the dive master who did a good gob preparing us before the dive, and during the dive he made sure we will not miss a thing and even took photos and videos of us during the dive (paid separately but worth every baht). My son had his best dive in his life so far and I got the memories from it. Recommended!

Great place to learn to dive. Good instructors and support. 😍Gladly again. We'll see each other next year at the latest.

11:23 29 Jul 24

The coach is very patient and nice.

Béatrice Joanis-Bergeron

11:01 26 Jul 24

I had a wonderful time diving in Racha Noi and Phi Phi! The tour was well organized, we saw loads of fishes and sharks, and Alla was an amazing instructor! Definitely recommend her for your diving trip! 😄🤙🏼

00:16 26 Jul 24

I spent 2 days with these guys and it was awesome. Day 1 in the pool for refresher with Kann and it was great because you learnt a good platform of knowledge but they are also serious about safety.Day 2 was a 3 dive tour and it was great. From the starting dives to the more challenging dive at the end. You learn alot.I must recommend at least the refresher or intro courses for diving. Even though I had dived a while ago, you forget so much and that can dangerous on your return. These people care, that is most important.Tim is probably the most patient man I have met, understanding and never forgets you are in a high stress situation. If you are not at least a little considerate of what you are doing then don't dive. You put more than yourself in danger. Tim was awesome the whole day. Food was great and the crew fantastic.I will be back to do my 2 days training at some point. Because these guys made learning diving fun, even if I still get a bit anxious about the whole thing.One lat word, Benz is great and will guide you through the tour options. Great organizer.Pictures of dive sites belowThanks guys

I had an incredible experience scuba diving with a brilliant dive instructor named Tim. The dives were absolutely fantastic, and Tim's professionalism and knowledge made the experience even better. He ensured that everyone felt safe and comfortable while exploring some beautiful underwater locations. Highly recommended for anyone looking to dive in the area!

14:35 25 Jul 24

Nice diving experience!

I recently completed my open water diving course with Phuket Dive Tours and had an outstanding experience. From the beginning, David was incredibly helpful in answering all my questions leading up to the deposit. Given that it was monsoon season, I was hesitant to book the course, but David assured me that the shop was flexible in rescheduling dates if conditions were deemed unsafe. This flexibility was also extended to our dive package—we initially purchased a 5-dive course but were given the option to upgrade to 6 dives on the boat itself depending on the weather. Thankfully, the weather turned out to be perfect for all three days we were there and we upgraded our package to enjoy more marine life and ship wreck exploration.A special shoutout to Tim and our Thai lady dive master (whose name I unfortunately forgot), both of whom were amazingly knowledgeable and patient. They closely observed us in the water and provided constructive feedback on any issues we faced. Thanks to their guidance, I now feel confident diving, with six dives logged and an eagerness for all the future fun dives to come.Thank you, Phuket Dive Tours, for an incredibly fun and professional crew. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to learn or advance their diving skills!Improvement suggestions:1. prescription goggle options - when i went, they mentioned they had -5 goggles but they only had up to -4. Would suggest to hold stock if possible2. photos - the group I was learning with was a group of 5, so the photos were taken rather hastily, resulting in limited photos of myself. It didn’t felt like value to be charged 1500 bhat for a few photos of myself, thus I opted out of it. Fortunately I brought a GOPRO and Tim was helpful in advising me on how to use it on my last fun dive. I would have loved to having a few free photos for us to post this review with.

17:46 20 Jul 24

I recently completed a basic dive course with Phuket Dive Tours, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. My instructor, Tim, was outstanding. His patience and high motivation made the learning process enjoyable and stress-free. Tim's passion for diving and dedication to his students are truly commendable. I felt safe, well-prepared, and thoroughly enjoyed every dive. I highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours to anyone looking to start or continue their diving journey. Thank you, Tim, for an unforgettable experience!

12:16 19 Jul 24

I just finished my SSI open water certification with PDT and could not be happier with the experience! Our instructor Tim was a huge part of this experience being one of the highlights of ny trip to Thailand.Tim was extremely knowledgeable and kept the spirit up while delivering high quality formation both in the pool and in the open water. He took enough time to help individually with all the skills, and in my case he was truly understandable and supportive, making sure I could master the diving skills and I could had a great time in the water.Highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours for anyone who wants to try for the first time Scuba diving and be amazed by the underwater world in Phuket!!

10:18 17 Jul 24

Highly recommended, Alla is patient and very friendly, thank you.

08:18 15 Jul 24

Fantastic and memorable experience! The good instructor Kann helped us if we were scared in the water, and we got down into the depths safely and soundly.

09:53 14 Jul 24

I went diving last week with Phuket Dive Tours. I booked last minute and everything went just so smoothly. I could book online and after that they took care of everything. From the first pick up to the drop off at the end. Very professional Staff (Timothy was my instructor) and of course last but not least the beautiful dive sites..! Really all you can wish for when going diving in Thailand.

08:37 12 Jul 24

Great day with brilliant crew and instructors. We enjoyed a day out with Phuket Dive Tours. I tried scuba for first time and instructor was brilliantIcing on cake was that my wife was given very friendly coaching and managed snorkeling and she loved it. I highly recommend them. Really good with the catamaran and not crowded.See you next year

12:01 07 Jul 24

Tim is the best!! He had safety as #1 priority and also having fun! we dived through a shipwreck, saw reefs, lots of fishes. great instructor and fun conversation all through the course! i would come back to do my advanced certification 👌👌 also have to mention that david was incredibly helpful! we called him around 8:30pm on Thursday night and he had us booked and all sorted for friday morning by 7:45am!!

09:56 07 Jul 24

there are a lot of scuba diving schools around and after doing our research we decided on Phuket Dive Tours - it was the best choice! we got an amazing diving instructor, Tim - very helpful, experienced and funny. he made sure we knew what to do on every step of the way and he was always there to help. also took great photos! i 100% recommend!

15:08 04 Jul 24

This was the best dive trip! The crew and dive master were amazing! The food was also better than anything you’ll ever get on a dive trip. The boat stopped at a fun snorkeling spot as well after the diving and allowed everyone to swim, paddle board, snorkel, etc.

10:12 02 Jul 24

12:55 01 Jul 24

Fantastic experience, the instructors were great, the boat setup and facilities were above my initial expectations! We didn’t see a huge amount of exotic marine life, though a turtle and Crayfish were great. The ship wrecks were awesome!

09:23 01 Jul 24

Top notch outfit. I just completed my SSI open water diver with these guys. Communication was excellent, the facilities are great (they have their own pool), and my instructor Tim was a great teacher and really made me feel comfortable. I would absolutely dive with them again.

We are a family of 4, my wife and I have our Padi licenses and our two sons needed theirs. The school put us in the hands of Victor, French ex special forces in the French army. He speaks fluent English, is as patient as you could ever need and even though he is young, he as more experience than most instructors I have been diving with. Great experience, support for every level of knowledge and really well organized. Thanks!!!

There are many dive shop options in Phuket and I highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours over the rest! I was matched with a FANTASTIC Dive Instructor for my Advanced Open Water Certification. Victor G. was very experienced and such a great teacher. We practiced all skills on every dive, not to just check a box on the list but so I could build confidence in the skills. Victor made the learning material and dives interesting and fun! I had such an amazing experience with Phuket Dive Tours! The boats they arranged for us to be on were fantastic, there was a real Breakfast (not just fruit and coffee), A great Lunch and Snacks. There was always food waiting for us after every dive and the crew were kind and very helpful before, during, and after the dives. Phuket Dives Tours gave me a great experience and I will definitely be coming back to dive with them and Victor. Cheers!

09:48 28 Jun 24

This is not my first dive with Phuket Dive tours. Very well organised dive company: Registration and sign up are easy and straight forward. Very good service from David the owner. Done my advance & Nitrox training with them. Timothy the Dive Master many many years of experience of about 1k dives, guided me through the steps for Nitrox certification, and shared his valuable experience from checking equipment, handling them and all safety aspects. I have gained a lot of knowledge from him. A highly recommended dive shop, don’t miss out if you are thinking of starting your dive journey!

12:50 27 Jun 24

We did our Open Water course with Victor and it was an amazing experience! Swimming amongst the many fishes was very surreal, and we got to learn lots of additional skills and tips from Victor along the way. Expected diving to be scary and tiring but it turned out to be a really calming and relaxing experience 😌 Can't wait for our next dive trip!

10:27 22 Jun 24

From initial contact with Dave through 3 full dive days with Master Diver Tim, whose #1 priority is our safety “ , it was an easy and very rewarding experience. Thank you Phuket Dive Tours for putting this 9 dives, plus the initial refresher in the pool, together for me. Dave is an awesome guy to dive with. I’ll be in touch next time.

Had Victor as my guide. Lost of skills in diving since I’ve not dived for 6 months and Victor is so patient to recap things slowly so could understand the basic theory of diving again. Great instructor as he shared more knowledge and really easy going. Helps to take photos for you as well! So yea, just book this centre without hesitation!

07:52 06 Jun 24

Amazing experience and extremely professional people, especially Mr. Tim.Highly recommend to experience scuba diving with them.

It was awesome. We just completed our 3 nitrox dive with Tim, great instructor with helpful tips on bouyancy control and he took our photos underwater.We did our pool refresher course with Mr Lam prior to this dive.We will definitely return to Phuket Dive Tour for our next dive, highly recommended. David from PDT is very responsive, easy and flexible to arrange activities. Thank you.

02:26 02 Jun 24

It was great experience. My guide Tim was amazing and really made me feel safe and comfortable in the water as well as showing me all the amazing underwater sites in Phuket. As a solo traveler Tim talked with me the whole trip and made the experience all the better!

08:07 29 May 24

Many thanks to Phuket Dive Tours Kata Beach, M/V Freedom Dolphin crew, and especially to Lem who was my guide and dive partner supreme! I went on a 3 dive trip with the most professional group of divers that one could ever ask for. The food was delicious, the crew very professional and attentive and Lem was so helpful as well as an experienced diver/guide. The whole day was a 5 Star experience. Ship wrecks, coral reefs, tons of beautiful fish, snake eels, moral eels, sea cucumber and the list goes on. I felt like a VIP all day. I'm sure everyone else did too. What an awesome experience.My sincere thanks to everyone !

15:20 28 May 24

Had an awesome day diving with our instructor Victor today! The boat is clean and everyone very friendly and helpful.

09:17 28 May 24

Great diving experience with Kann and all the other staff! I booked the day before my dive to Ko Racha Noi & Ko Racha Yao and David was very accommodating. He was quick with all necessary information to ensure I had an amazing dive, which I did. Will book again!

01:41 28 May 24

I recently completed an SSI Open Water Diving course with Phuket Dive Tours, and it was an absolutely amazing experience! The team at Phuket Dive Tours is professional, friendly, and highly knowledgeable.Special shoutout to my instructor, Victor, who went above and beyond to make the course enjoyable and educational. He was incredibly patient and skilled in teaching essential diving techniques like maintaining buoyancy, interacting with marine life responsibly. His guidance made me feel confident and prepared throughout the dives an I was able to even go in and out of a shipwreck on the last day.Thank you, Phuket Dive Tours and Victor, for an unforgettable diving experience! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to explore the underwater world!

08:42 25 May 24

Competent, safe, and reassuring. I was able to progress through the required skills and managed to get the cert on schedule, with Tim's help.

08:09 25 May 24

Just came back from Phuket, many thanks to all the dive staff you are an amazing team with an amazing dive centre so very friendly, helpful and nothing was too much trouble. A massive shout out and thanks to John, Laem and Alla our dive guides who were awesome thank you for making our dives an unforgettable experience. We will be back soon 😊🤿🐙🧜

04:53 25 May 24

David was very quick to respond and helped us arrange a refresher course at short notice.Kann our instructor was great. Clear & patience when explaining and ensured we felt comfortable very quickly, allowing us to enjoy the dives throughout the day.

12:58 24 May 24

Had an amazing time as always with Phuket Dive Tours. These guys offer great deals for three dives in Phuket at various dive spots. Our Dive Master named Gan was a pleasure to be with and was very knowledgeable about the areas we were diving in. Will definitely be going out with them again.

00:57 24 May 24

Dived with Lem, Can't fault him, great guide, clear signals, very good brief, and also showed respect for a videographer diver...I would not hesitate to recommend his services and that of Phuket dive tours

12:51 22 May 24

Such an amazing experience! Iam now a certified open water diver and truly it's a different world underwater. Thank you Phuket Dive Tours, very accommodating and easy to book, thanks to David for your help prior to booking and all.And of course Iam super thankful to my diving instructor VICTOR!🙏. He's so friendly, organised and knowledgeable person. He thought me everything that I need to know in diving, gave me a lot of information and training about safety. Not to mention he's patience towards me because personally I don't know how to swim 😂haha, and there are hard times for me to equalise but he's really very helpful and I'm sure to everyone who will have the opportunity to be his diving instructor/buddy😊. Thank you so much Victor, I really had a great time. Iam now a good little diver. Yes I don't know how to swim that's why I'm scared of open water but you made me conquer my fears, yippee!!!, thanks a lot for your help🙏.Note: Great photos taken by Victor.

03:08 21 May 24

absolutely amazing experience, our instructor was Tim Mayor, he is very knowledgeable, teaches you to be comfortable underwater at your own pace. i highly recommend him as an instructor. we did pool day and the open dives with him. Tomasz Jazweic was the assistant and he was incredibly helpful as well, teaching on the side, making sure we were not in danger. the whole experience was amazing! would love to come back and get my advance cert from them.

12:16 20 May 24

Had a really Great experience with my instructor Victor! He’s very patient, explaining everything very clearly! And he shot a lot of wonderful videos and photos for me! Definitely recommend!

14:06 19 May 24

Huge shoutout to Phuket Dive Tours for an incredible private dive experience near Phuket! My guide, Victor, a meticulous French fellow with a cool military background, made the whole trip top-notch.Victor impressed me with thorough briefings on each dive site and a safety refresher that instilled confidence, even for a recent diver like me. Between dives, his meticulous equipment checks and clear communication kept me calm despite strong currents. But Victor's not just a safety pro! His friendly personality and great conversation made the boat ride enjoyable too.Highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours and Victor for anyone seeking a fantastic dive experience near Phuket!

Hey guy, so this was my first time going Scuba diving, and all I have to say is I had such an amazing time!!! My instructor Victor was very helpful and taught me the way of diving, if anyone wants to get into scuba diving I would highly recommend coming here!!

11:26 11 May 24

Very good service and staff. nice service and staff

10:28 11 May 24

10:12 10 May 24

10/10 would dive with Tim again!! My underwater experience was unforgettable thanks to him. He's an incredible instructor who prioritizes safety above all else. His explanations were clear and concise, and he made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. Already looking forward to the next dive!

10:12 10 May 24

Tim is an absolute rockstar instructor! ⭐⭐⭐ My time with him was awesome, and I felt totally safe throughout. He broke everything down so clearly, making it easy for me to grasp, and he was super open in our communication during the dives. Plus, he's just a really cool person to hang out with. He definitely leveled up my underwater adventure, and I'm already counting down the days until I can dive with him again!

María Eugenia Bottazzi

10:12 10 May 24

Tim is for sure the best instructor ever! 🐠🐟🦀 His attention to safety made me feel completely at ease during our dives. He explained everything in such detail that even a newbie like me could understand, and he was so friendly and approachable throughout. Hanging out with him was just as enjoyable as the dives themselves. Can't wait to join him for another underwater adventure soon!

09:03 06 May 24

During my trip, my dive computer (activity watch style) decided to go into dive mode during the flight. I spoke to David via watsapp, late in the evening, to try and get hold of one for the following days' diving. Not only did he respond imidelty, he gave me advice on how I could get it up and running again. The following day, he met me prior to getting on the boat with a working dive computer that was clear of previous days' diving.The diving itself was pretty decent, and the guides were professional. It was a good 2 days diving (6 dives).I will book up with Phuket dive tours again next time a visit for the customer service alone.

Martin GONZALVEZ

13:36 04 May 24

Excellent organizationThe staff was excellent our dive instructor Victor was amazing ! Very good choice for the diving spots and very good food on the boatI strongly recommand

Great dive center. I've been wanting to try diving for a long time, and after visiting Phuket and researching my options, I decided to take the SSI Open Water Diver course. It was a great decision, because, unlike the usual fun dives, the course allows you to learn the necessary theoretical base, as well as smoothly build up your practical diving skills. In addition, the obtained certificate will help you with diving in other places all around the world.I would also like to thank my instructor Jonathan Parr. He explained both the theory and the practical part of the exercises in a very accessible way. John was very friendly and approachable. He broke up our sessions so that I could learn new information and skills at a comfortable pace. I gained a lot of useful knowledge from him and overall, I couldn't have wished for a better teacher.Also, John is excellent underwater photographer, the photos from our last diving turned out to be really great!

08:34 01 May 24

Just did my open water dive with Phuket Dive Tours!It was convenient to book, pay and they have their own private pool for pool sessions.Thank you David for addressing my queries even when you were on holiday and to the team and crew of PDT for making my Phuket trip memorable.Biggest shoutout to my diving instructor, VICTOR, who saw me through the 3 days. He was extremely patient and knowledgeable. I felt really safe diving with him and my buddy and he definitely made me want to explore diving further! 10/10 for Victor!!!

12:42 29 Apr 24

Some amazing folks here! It was my first experience with scuba diving and Andii was super patient! Both him and Kan are great teachers. After learning in the pool, we went to the kata beach for a real dive and it was awesome! So glad I chose Phuket Dive Tours!

11:45 27 Apr 24

I booked Scuba diving directly from them at patong store. The in store experience was amazing with lovely lady 'Fa' who Guided us all the programmes that they have and I chose scuba diving on private boat named sarah the boat was amazing, has all the facilities to enjoy luxury ride.Our diving instructor was "VIKTOR" who literally has been Knowledgeable, nice and a perfect photographer for us. I have never experienced this feeling in my entire life.Conclusion:- Everything was much more better than I expected.

I planned to take Advanced OWD, but the timing didn’t work out. Booked a diving tour to Phi Phi. Since the last dive was a year ago, I took a refresher course in the pool with instructor Kan. She explained everything perfectly and showed me that I had some gaps in my neutral buoyancy skills, and Kan taught me how to act in just a few minutes. Victor was the instructor for the tour. Very positive and experienced, supportive. The three dives went great. Victor took many wonderful photographs. I am grateful to both instructors and the dive center for their professionalism and high quality of work! Next time I will allocate enough time to complete the course and dive at other sites, including King Cruiser.

We booked the day before for an intro beach dive and they were very accommodating. On the day, we were advised to do a pool dive first and we were so glad we did as this made us more confident before going to the sea. Kann was a lovely instructor and made us feel safe despite low visibility and waves. We loved it ❤️

Superb day with Victor.An experienced and dynamic diver, he was able to give confidence to both beginners and the most experienced.The day is rhythmic and perfectly planned. Superb activity where you don't feel like you're in a tourist trap. The setting is beautiful, the staff on the boat are smiling and caring, and the icing on the cake is our potato instructor!Thank you Victor, we can only recommend you 200%.If you are hesitant among the many diving schools on Phuket, look no further.

10:57 17 Apr 24

Went scuba diving with Lem the instructor and he was brilliant! The day as a whole was well planned out and really fun - we had booked a beginners diving course with two dives and it was perfect for us. Lem explained everything beforehand and was really attentive and helpful in the water. We were also kept well fed with a range of tasty food throughout the day.

10:25 16 Apr 24

I've been wanting to scuba dive in Thailand for a long time, and I'm glad I finally did. I made two dives at Racha Noi and one at Racha Yai. The water was clear and warm, and full of colorful fish and coral.Dive master Tim has logged thousands of dives, and he knows what he's doing. He kept us safe, showed us around, and pointed out a lot of things I would have missed, like the moray eel hiding in the rock crevice.The last dive was a wreck dive, a sunken ship probably a few hundred feet long. It was a real thrill diving around that.If you're thinking about doing a dive with Phuket Dive Tours, I would highly recommend it. You'll be glad you did.

11:16 11 Apr 24

Had an excellent day with Jon Parr. Took us on a fantastic journey and ended up with a challenging yet exciting drift dive, 4 thumbs up, thank you Jon.

09:47 11 Apr 24

Tim was my instructor. He's really friendly and thought me how to do my try dive. I don't know how to swim, he made sure I was safe and helped me throughout the dive. I highly recommend trying scuba dive here!!Thanks tim and phuket dive tours for such an amazing experience!!

10:43 10 Apr 24

We did two day trips to Racha Noi and Phi Phi/Shark Point. Had a great time with Victor and Jon!The dive company is well organized and everything went smoothly. We had our gear ready in the boat before we were in! The gear is nice too, but dive boots could have been useful with the open fins. It’s not clearly stated but if you want to use nitrox, you can request it before.Just make sure to be ready for pick up at 7am!

08:51 08 Apr 24

We went diving with Jon. He did a great job explaining everything to us and diving with him was very enjoyable. The boat was clean and the food was good too. There were about 30 people on the boat so it wasn't too crowded. We can recommend it to others! Have fun on your dive!

06:30 06 Apr 24

We booked a last minute private snorkelling trip for 5 adults and 4 kids. The team, led by Kan were amazing and she was an incredible host. Always attentive and great communication. There are lots of jellyfish this time of year but don’t let that put you off. Still plenty to see and they know some spots where there a a lot less jellyfish. Thanks 🤩

04:54 06 Apr 24

Great advice - dive spots tailored to experience. Clarifications simply via WhatsApp.Jon was my guide for two days and 6 dives. He helped me improve and expand my knowledge. He made sure to make the most of the day. Equipment, diving spot and time management were perfectly coordinated. He explained the boat rules and procedures to us so that we were optimally prepared. We were always the first in the water and were able to avoid many divers. Even on board, Jon was always a good and fun person to talk to. Thanks for that!

04:33 06 Apr 24

Perfect. Thank you Jon

Incredible experience with Phuket Dive Tours, and especially with Jon. Jon took my two kids through their Open Water training and he was exceptional. So patient with the kids, knowledgeable and very safe!! He made the whole experience so enjoyable for them. Highly recommended Phuket Dive Tours and especially Jon!!

David from Kata branch was the lucky guy I met! Thanks to him, I could join the fantastic experiences. You will not regret your choice at all.

10:04 03 Apr 24

I just passed my SSI Open Water Diver course and had the best time doing it! Thank you to all at PDT, firstly to Dave for the information and guidance prior to booking, and I’m hugely grateful to Victor (third picture) who was my instructor over the two intensive days. He was super down to earth, patient and enthusiastic, and has a real wealth of knowledge and experience when it comes to diving. I felt at ease the whole time - definitely recommend!

We had a great experience with PDT. Jon was a great instructor. Thanks to the whole team for a great two days.

03:23 31 Mar 24

I highly recommend the Open Water course with Phuket Dive tours. The shop is located in central Kata with a pool in the back. Day 1 you do in the pool, and day 2-3 on the boat. My instructor was Jon Parr who was awsome! Jon is a great guy, very experienced and made us all feel safe at all times, as well as having a good time with all of us. He made sure we did things in a safe manner and showed us great patience. Loved it! Thank you!

07:23 30 Mar 24

I spent my open water over 3 days with Victor, a super friendly instructor and teacher. An unforgettable experience that I can only recommend even to those who have slight apprehensions about diving... Victor will quickly make you forget them. Thanks again !

10:38 23 Mar 24

Done my fun dives and speciality courses with sky and Jon.Both are very attentive and paying attention to diver safety.Special thanks to Jon as he shares his skills and knowledge openly. Jon is definitely a patience and humorous instructor I ever had.A detail briefing and debriefing with each dives and where it could a diver get better during courses.Thumbs up!!!!

03:32 23 Mar 24

We booked the Deep Dive Specialty and had Jon as an instructor. Jon was/is highly professional and we felt 100% safe at all times. The atmosphere on the boat was also very pleasant for day trip boats and the food was good too.I can't say anything about the equipment because we have our own equipment. However, the tanks were in good condition and were always sufficiently filled.The dive sites, we were Racha Noi and Racha Yai, were from ok to good.We had a lot of fun on the course and would book with Phuket Dive Tours again at any time. Especially with Jon as an instructor!Thanks a lot Jon 🙏🏼Therefore 5 stars for the diving center 👌🏽

03:25 23 Mar 24

I did the deep diving specialty with Jon. He is a great diving instructor! I felt like I was in great hands at all times. The organization of the two day trips by boat was also very good. I can recommend Phuket Dive Tours and especially Jon as a diving instructor to everyone with a clear conscience!

02:21 22 Mar 24

Thank you Phuket Dive Tour for this excellent day! I can only recommend this diving center! Victor was an awesome instructor! Top organization, a very good meal on board the boat, and the 2 dives were great!!

15:00 20 Mar 24

Great day with great people. Jon was an amazing and patient instructor. Thanks to the whole crew for this incredible experience.

04:49 19 Mar 24

My partner & I recently had the pleasure of completing our SSI scuba diving certification with Jon and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Jon’s passion for diving is contagious, and his expertise is noticeable from day 1.Jon’s patience, clear instruction, and attention to safety made every lesson enjoyable! Not only did we learn the essential skills needed for diving, but also a deeper appreciation for the ocean & sea life. & He’s a great underwater photographer too!I HIGHLY recommend Jon to anyone looking to explore scuba diving while in Phuket. Thank you for creating 2 new scuba diving addicts lol

12:30 17 Mar 24

We booked the trip Racha Noi Scuba Diving 3 Dive Day Trip, the cost was 4500 Baht per person. We were totally new to diving. Our instructor Victor took care of carefully explaining all the necessary details for secure diving before getting into the water. He set up all the equipment and explained how it worked. It was a great learning experience and a beautiful adventure into the sea. I strongly recommend it to everyone that wants to explore the world under the water even if you never went scuba diving before.

15:04 16 Mar 24

I passed my SSI advanced open water with Victor. Super satisfied with these 2 days. Victor takes the time to explain everything and showed me his confidence in navigation.I recommend without hesitation for training or for recreational diving!

07:03 13 Mar 24

Thank you very much for the incredible experience! This was my first diving, I was afraid that something would go wrong, but the excellent instructor Viktor calmed me down and at the right moment showed me what to do, supported me and I did it! He also took incredibly beautiful pictures for us! And he gave a sea of positivity and true professionalism in his work!If you are still thinking about going or not, then feel free to ask about instructor Victor and have a great day that you will remember for a lifetime!

07:01 13 Mar 24

Yesterday we went diving. Incredible experience! Everything is superbly organized. I would especially like to mention the instructor Victor. It was my first time diving, but everything went very comfortably. The day before the diving, Victor conducted a training session in the pool, where he answered all the questions and showed how to dive correctly, how not to panic and how to move correctly underwater. The boat took us to the islands of Racha and Racha Yai, there were three dives and each time different emotions and impressions. Thanks to Victor and the whole team, I will definitely come back again!

06:35 12 Mar 24

Phuket Dive Tours has been great. This is our 4th trip with them and they had always been great. Jon Parr our instructor has been wonderful to learn from. 5 star for both! Thank you

01:12 11 Mar 24

I took the advanced adventurer open water course with Jon. He provided great instructions and was very patient. He guided me through amazing and memorable dives. I recommend diving with him and I can't wait to dive with him again.

11:34 08 Mar 24

Loved my dive trip with Phuket Dive Tours! I had Mr Lem as a dive master for the day and I really liked him. He was super professional, very friendly and good to spot things into the water. The experience on the boat was also very nice! Very good breakfast and lunch (buffet style) and many comfortable places to relax on the boat!Would definitely recommend!

09:10 08 Mar 24

Amazing service and unforgettable tour to Similan Islands. Did 3 nights liveaboard. Just unreal, everything was absolutely perfect! A must do!

11:01 21 Feb 24

Shout-out to Victor 🙏 We did an Advanced Open Water Course + an Open Water Diver Course with him and it was one of the best things during our trip through SEA.I'm not the best swimmer and I'm afraid of the open ocean. But from start till end I felt safe and comfortable. He taught us the skills to confidently navigate through water and gave us room to explore the ocean Life independently. There was no micro managing.Thank you very much, Victor. It was a pleasure to have you as our instructor. We wish you the best.Also thanks to the dive center who was very professional and accommodating (we were last minute participants).Note: Victor took also those pictures and they came out great 👍

We did our Advanced Adventurer and Nitrox certification with Scuba Dive Tours. Even though almost everything was fully booked, Benz was still able to accommodate us on the boats for all 5 dives.Equipment was provided and was in great condition.Our dive instructor Victor was brilliant. He is very experienced ! and has an excellent and very personable way of conveying the training content. He answered all questions at all times. An absolute recommendation!!!!The boat tours (1 x catamaran, 1 x large diving boat) were very well organized. Good crew and good food.

Just finished the 3 days open water course with Jon Parr from Phuket Dive Tours, he's an awesome instructor one can ever ask for, very professional, organized, patience, and take really good care of the divers. This was my first time learning to dive and was kind of nervous and panicky, but Jon was there every step of the way and made it a smooth sailing, thanks so much for this unforgettable memory Jon! You are the best!!!Hannah

09:56 11 Feb 24

I completed my OWD referral course for the 4 open water dives with Jon. The communication in advance was flawless and the instructions were great. Everything was up to date and I therefore felt very safe. Thanks

13:09 08 Feb 24

It was my first time to try beach diving. It was very smooth and I had a reliable and professional instructor. I’ll try deep diving next time~First time to try beach diving.Had a really good time with Coach Vector who is very professional and nice.I will try deep dive with him if I come next time!

15:26 07 Feb 24

I did the 3 day Open Water course with 4 boat dives under Jon's guidance. Truly wonderful experience with impeccable organization. Jon has been an incredible guide in this new adventure of mine. Always very professional and careful to take care of every detail of my training and to make all the dives relaxing and fascinating. Three unforgettable days. Thanks Jon!!! Dan

What an amazing experience!! I did my first dive in Thailand with Phuket Dive Tour, hence it was also my first boat dive, beem my guide and dive master ensured that everything is safe, he’s an amazing guy with lot of sarcasm which made the experience even better.

12:21 01 Feb 24

Under the guidance of Jon Parr, my PADI instructor, I had an extraordinary open water diving experience. Jon's swift and decisive actions saved me from a potentially dangerous situation, showcasing not only expertise but a genuine commitment to safety. His patience and cool demeanor transformed each lesson into an enjoyable and enriching experience. His teaching style is fantastic breaking down tricky skills into simple stuff. The equipment provided by Phuket dive store was of the highest quality, contributing to a seamless and comfortable dive. Jon's meticulous approach to each skill instilled confidence, and his dedication to giving ample time to every student created a supportive learning environment. Bonus: he took some exceptionally cool photos and videos under water. I wholeheartedly recommend Jon Parr for an exceptional and safe diving journey.

14:29 30 Jan 24

We were fine, Benz is nice

13:16 30 Jan 24

An incredible team. The whole end to end experience was managed with precision- a well oiled machine. The whole team was very personable, the diving fantastic and I felt very safe with my instructor.

02:10 30 Jan 24

Great Experience will book again

12:59 18 Jan 24

My first diving in Thailand. Everything very well organised and great crew. Divemaster Sky was amazing and my two buddies, who just finished a 5 month around the world dive trip, had a great time and said it was great diving and organisation. Thumbs up for Phuket dive tours!

15:29 16 Jan 24

Great leisure dive with the crew, especially Mark and Benz. Very good for those who want a quick, well planned dive if you have half a day to spare. 👍

15:48 07 Jan 24

Me and my girlfriend wanted to get an advanced open water certificate, so we went by the shop and met David. David helped us with all our options and choices on what we wanted to do on our dives and where we wanted to dive. Together with David we found a plan and booked our trip. We got to the boat and meet up with our instructor Jon. Jon was such an amazing instructor! He took us under his wings and showed us everything we needed to know. Great service all the way around. Super cool trips with nice views👏🏻 When we were on the boat there was food, drinks and snacks all day.Again, big thanks to Jon and the rest of the crew for such an amazing experience and we can highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours.🤿🤩👌🏼

03:46 06 Jan 24

I have just done my open water dive course with Phuket dive tours and it was fantastic. It was really well organised, the dedicated pool is right near the dive shop in kata beach and the equipment was in really good order. Most of all it was fun! A big shout out to our dive instructor Jon Parr. Very competent and experienced, Jon went the extra mile by bringing his own camera to our ocean dives which has given us precious photos of our first dives!! He also took the time to point out some of the interesting things to see like moray eels and razor fish. I highly recommend this experience.

12:17 03 Jan 24

Great diving experience. Owner is extremely responsive and was able to book me last minute.Did my advanced training here. The dive spots were excellent and saw a great deal of marine life such as bamboo sharks, guitar sharks, rays, and more.Will gladly book more dives when I go to Phuket again.

Arrived in Phuket's peak season, walked in for fun dives, and Khun Benz was able to set me up with awesome dives the next day.😊Everything was well-organized, the pick-up was on time, the boat was clean, and the gear was in solid shape. Shoutout to Nack, my dive master, for being helpful without any pushiness. Awesome experience!

01:30 25 Dec 23

Great day with Tim from Phuket Dive Tours, who is extremely knowledgeable and a great guide. Thank you Tim and Phuket Dive Tours, see you again 👌👌👌

18:41 11 Dec 23

My wife and I had an incredible experience with Phuket Diving Tours. They went above and beyond to accommodate me at the last moment, and their dedication to safety and thorough training truly stood out. The team provided exceptional attention throughout the entire experience, making it both wonderful and truly out of this world.A special shout-out to Tim, who accompanied us underwater and captured amazing pictures. His expertise added an extra bit of magic to an already special experience. I can't thank the team enough for making our scuba diving adventure truly unforgettable. Highly recommend their services for anyone seeking a safe, enjoyable, and personalized diving experience.

17:38 03 Dec 23

Had a great first time diving experience with these guys. My instructor was Tim who was extremely thorough and made me feel at ease at all times. Highly recommend!

09:50 28 Nov 23

I booked two tours with them, the first was a day dive trip (on a different review) and the three day two nights Similan island live aboard.I was nervous booking the trip since I had not dove in a year and have only and open water, but after reaching out to David, he was able to talk with me about all the different options and helped me pick the best option for me.The only thing I regret is not being able to stay for longer!!Travel was long, pick up from hotel to speed boat to the main ship took about 2 hours, but I had no issues with drivers finding me and my hotel as well as transferring my things to the main boat.I was paired with a girl that was close in age, similar dive experience and same language. The staff was so kind and attentive. The food is AMAZING. The diving is like a well oiled machine, you come in and quickly learn the day to day routine.My dive guide was Tour, a young local diver, who has over 10 years experience, which was east to see as we where diving. He was able to take us around the reef helping us find the animals we wanted to see (as available, obviously nothing is guaranteed) and adapted the path we took to give us more opportunities to do swim throughs (kinda like tunnels).Jon was the point person on the ship, who was also knowledgeable, friendly and easy to talk with.I am so sad that I left after only three days. And will definitely be back again!

09:54 26 Nov 23

I recently went on the 2 Day / 1 Night liveaboard diving trip, and highly recommend it. The process was efficient, the crew was extremely friendly, the food and accommodations were excellent, and the diving in the Similan Islands was fantastic. Definitely the highlight of my time in Phuket.

02:46 26 Nov 23

Great place to learn how to scuba dive. We had Jonathan Parr as our instructor who was fantastic, but all the staff were friendly and highly experienced. The course was also structured in a great way to ease you into an 18m dive. Couldn’t recommend this more!

11:17 21 Nov 23

Fantastic scuba diving experience here. Got my SSI certificate with instructor Jon. He’s an amazing teacher, loved his humor and is very patient. Would highly recommend coming here!

07:49 19 Nov 23

Completed the SSI Open Water Course with Phuket Dive Tours in Nov 2023 and would highly recommend them. Especially because all details and logistics are carefully managed that I didnt have to worry about anything and could just focused on the course. Perfect for holiday mood!Special shoutout to Jon Par, my diving instructor, for his clear and concise coaching, chill when its fun time, and being firm when it comes to safety.

10:10 16 Nov 23

The best experience I have ever had you must try it. And all the thanks to the best scuba diving instructor ever (Nim) 🥇

Excellent diving center. Jon is a great instructor for deep diving!

08:28 10 Nov 23

Spent two days with dive instructor Jon P. from Phuket Dive Tours completing my Advanced Open Water certification. I can’t thank Jon, plus David and his team from PDT enough. Incredibly well organised, Jon was outstanding, I’m not your typical diver. 6’4” 155kg and I gulp air like it’s my last. He worked through every stage, teaching me perfect buoyancy and trim, breathing techniques and observational awareness.I had a moment where I started to panic, Jon calmed me down, got me focused and we completed the dive safely. Thank you so much.If you’re looking for a place to up skill, or just a recreational dive, you can’t go past Phuket Dive Tours, also, ask for Jon if he’s available, a real gentleman.

15:26 06 Nov 23

Had one of the best experiences of my life!!! The scuba divers are great and expert at their work.

15:24 06 Nov 23

13:41 06 Nov 23

We were all non certified divers, but the way these team (Tim, victor, lem, kan, captain bear and Sam) work very hard and made our dives most memorable, highly recommended them and hats off to all.

18:40 28 Oct 23

07:22 24 Oct 23

Spent three days with Phuket dive tours doing my SSI Open water diver course. Loved every minute it! Tim our instructor quickly alleviated any fears I had going into it as it was my first time and I always felt safe under his guidance. Really enjoyed it and would highly recommend Phuket Dive tours for first time divers

12:03 21 Oct 23

My friend and I did the open water ssi course with Jon. Amazing experience! He was always taking care of us and is ahead of the game.

06:47 21 Oct 23

01:18 16 Oct 23

It was a fantastic course, and my instructor, Jon , was able to help me overcome my fears and give me the skills with both humour and teaching. Letting me relax, knowing that I was in safe hands and able to achieve the goals.

05:53 05 Oct 23

Just did a 3 dive trip with these guys from Phuket. Well run, professional outfit. David, who handled the booking, Hotel pickup was super helpful and Benj my dive guide was brilliant. Nothing too much trouble and lots to see. Would definitely book with them again 👌

12:43 03 Oct 23

5 Stars, 6 if I couldI did 3 fundives on a full day Tour with Jon and really enjoyed every Moment of it. He was a great instructor and did his best to lead three wounderful dives and created moments to remember. We went to different spots on Banana Bay and to two Wracks at Racha Yai and felt the loads of Jon's Experience in diving there. He knew the best spots amd I felt safe and comfortable the whole time.Jon also taught some nice practical things and methods to grow as a Diver.Not only the dives itself made the day become an awesome experience, its also the atmosphere on the boat and the little things that matter.I felt welcome the moment I walked into the office and booked my Dives with Salma.In the morning I was picked up on time at my Hotel and was taken to the pier and welcomed there.The team was really nice and the food on the boat was delicious.Each buffet (breakfast, lunch, fruits, snacks) had a good variety to choose from and it was plenty.Really enjoyed the trip, thanks to Jon and the Team of Phuket Dive Tours.

11:37 27 Sep 23

An incredible experience with incredible people. I wanted to thank Jon and all the staff. They are very involved and attentive people and very nice.I advise anyone who would like to do this to do it with them.Thanks again🙏

07:09 12 Sep 23

Was a great experience - did the four dive certificate course. Alla was a great teacher and an excellent photographer, the trips were timely, convenient and well organised. Would recommend completely!

09:22 21 Aug 23

Great dive shop with great professional and friendly staff. There are many dive shop around but I’m happy I picked them for my advance certification. My instructor was Jon and he was fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommend this shop and Jon.

05:46 21 Aug 23

Memorable day with Sam our instructor, everything was well organized on the boat, the meal was excellent, the dive sites were magnificent, I recommend!

08:27 12 Aug 23

I took 2 consecutive 3-dive day tours with Phuket drivers. Both were absolutely fabulous. On the first tour, my instructor Maa did a great job of meticulously going through a refresh procedure, as I hadn't dived in the past 10years. Then we had a great time fun diving in the Ratcha's. Maa was great at pointing out interesting things to see underwater.The next day was a tour to Phi Phi and shark point. Alla, my instructor, was great at leading the way and taking care of every detail of the dive. Alla made sure to go below first to get me a close up with a Leopard shark, before the "herd" joined from above and scared him away. The Phi Phi dives were absolutely amazing. Plenty of colours and great sea life to experience.The ships were great, serving food and fresh fruit before and between dives. Just what you need after surfacing hungry. The entire staff was very helpful in managing the equipment and helping out wherever needed.I strongly recommend diving with Phuket divers... can't wait to come back to Phuket for seconds...

Our snorkeling excursion on the PowerCat catamaran was amazing! Kan, our guide, was great and, with her expertise and warmth, did everything to make the trip an unforgettable experience for our kids (7 & 9). The snorkeling spots were great - especially the two off Koh Racha. We can highly recommend a trip with Phuket Dive Tours - also because it was anything but super touristy.Thanks to the entire PowerCat crew and to John and Kan #phuketdivetours for a wonderful day!

A great dive experience, thanks to our dive master.Jul 2023We booked a tour of Vietnam and Thailand through Asia Pioneer travel, and stipulated that we dive two days in Phuket. We got so lucky that our travel agent at Asia Pioneer booked us through Phuket Dive Tours, and, specifically, because we landed Jon Parr as our dive master.We were on a 2 day, three dive per day trip, and shared a dive boat with other operators, but we felt we had such a custom experience because of Jon.My wife is the biggest dive enthusiast, followed by me, and finally our 14-year old, newly PADI certified, daughter. Jon made sure all of us got the most out of the trip.We had such a lovely experience, and even though day 2 wasn't perfect conditions (low season, weather/currents related), Jon communicated to us what to expecting each dive, and we really appreciated his candor and attention to detail.I can't say enough about how quality the experience was. If you are a family, and want to dive in Phuket, ask for Jon at Phuket Dive Tours!

I had a great experience doing my open water diver course with Phuket Dive Tours. My instructor Roman was very knowledgable, thorough, organized and professional when teaching and i enjoyed every moment of my dives. It was truly a memorable experience and id love to come back.

Amazing amazing amazing!My boyfriend and I completed our open water and advanced adventurer certification this week. I cannot recommend Phuket Dive Tours enough! Our instructor, Sean, was extremely knowledgable, experienced and fun. He set the bar really high for any future dive guides! Our training was personalized to fit our wants/needs/fears and we felt comfortable the entire time with him by our side.For our dives we did all boat dives, which I definitely recommend for the best experience - we visited some of the best dive sites in Thailand! As a bonus we were able to learn so much about the marine life. Every day was well organized and such a blast.We’re sad it’s over, but so ready for future dive trips! Thank you thank you!

This was my second time diving with phuket dive tours.From the very moment I walked into their Kata beach store, David greeted me with a smile. He explained to me and my friend (who had not dived before) all about what we'd be doing in the dive and gave us the best possible deal.On the dive day, we were graced by Mod, our diving instructor. She was lovely and kind, and made sure that everything went well for me and my friend and that we were comfortable under the water.Not only will I dive with them again, but also recommend them to my friends.Keep being amazing guys.

Absolutely fantastic day. The guys accommodated our family of 4 with snorkeling. David who was my contact was helpful on emails and WhatsApp.The staff on the boat were really well organised and friendly and the food and drink was great and aplenty.I really would recommend these guys.Thank you all for a great time.

Without any hesitation I can say, we really had a wonderful scuba diving experience with Phuket Dive Tours. Thanks to David on briefing us what package is suitable as per our plan. And a big thanks to Pommy & Simon who were our diving instructors. They are very friendly and experienced instructors and had trained us very well before our jump. For sure you will be 100% safe with them. It was a great experience for us. Definetly gonna come back again for scuba with Phuket Dive Tours. Kudos to the whole team!

Did the Open Water course with Roman as our instructor and it was so much fun! Roman is such a funny guy but above all he has a lot of experience and knowledge to share. The pool training has prepared us for the open water and after that the dives just felt effortless and smooth. Would highly recommend both Phuket Dive Tours and Roman!

Absolutely brilliant. David and the team could not be more obliging. Phuket Dive Tours gave us the three best experiences of our holiday in Thailand. They offered what we were after, personal service without pressure. Boat was exceptional as was the crew. Instructor was a hoot. Dive gear top quality and advice regarding what else we might enjoy was spot on. We have already decided to come back to Phuket and progress our diving here based on our experience with Phuket Dive Tours. Thank you so much.

David and Marshall looked after me on my 3 day open water scuba course and it was one of the best experiences of my whole Thailand trip! David is everything you want/need from an instructor: gives clear instructions, is enthusiastic and hypes you up when you’re doing well and even in groups you feel as though he’s watching everyone carefully. Really knowledgeable about diving, marine life and the local reefs, would recommend Phuket dive tours to everyone!

I have a really great experience getting my divers license here.The prices are really good. If you want to get your divers license I would recommend you doing that here because it is a lot cheaper than at other diver shops.The owner is flexible and will help you if you have a problem and the instructors are also nice. You can have a great chat with them.My instructor, Beto, was really nice and explained everything very well. He makes you feel very comfortable. So if you have any nerves about diving, know that you will be fine if you take your course here.I really enjoyed booking at this place.

We would highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours. We took the refresher course session in their pool followed by a dive on Kata reef. Marshall made the day outstanding. He looked after us very well and was very thorough going through all the basic skills and listened carefully to what we wanted to practice. Great company too. A perfect and fun refresher course. David and Marshall both took us out on the reef and we came back with some great photos of the dive taken by David including our encounter with a cute cuttlefish.

Phuket Dive Tours are the best in Phuket. Why? How can I say that? Well, let me tell you…Their prices are the best and can’t be beat anywhere on the island. Their service is top notch. David, made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in the door and took as long as we needed to answer all of our questions. The dive team, Marshall and Tony and others, are professional, experienced, patient, and made the experience very fun. My wife got her certification at Phuket Dive Tours and I went along with them, as I’m already certified. Their training was done by the book with safety at the forefront. We will be back to Phuket at some point and our first stop will be Phuket Dive Tours for an excellent dive! Thank you so much!

Did my open water diver certification with Roman. He was extremely professional and thorough and really made me feel safe and comfortable in the water. I’ve tried scuba diving before but never got quite as comfortable. I also never realized how much there is to know until taking this course. Was a great 3 days.Also the shop itself is excellent! Good location, awesome pool for training, and top of the line gear. Also David was really responsive and organized and made the booking and any additional questions we had a breeze. Highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours if your in the Phuket.

We had an amazing experience. Originally we were a group of 4, however one got sick over the night and had to cancel right before the transfer pickup at our hotel, this was handled very professionally and she even got most of her money back, only 200 baht for insurance was taken.The three rest of us had a personal dive instructor, his name was Beto and he was very professional. One person in our company had trouble going down (her first time diving) and Beto did his very best and was very professional.I have a dive certificate and was more comfortable diving, so i got moved to another instructor for my second and third dive so that i would be able to make some good dives while Beto worked with the beginners in our group.Both my dives were amazing with the last dive visiting a wreck at about 20m, very good!The big boat had fresh water shower and toilets, we had free snacks and food on board and the ride to the dive-site couldn’t have been more comfortable.Overall an absolutely amazing experience.

I chose PDT from the good reviews and it was the right decision. Having to arrange diving trips for a family of 4 certified divers, mom and dad with 14and 12, and a 20 yo son taking open water certification was quite daunting. I spoke to David before arriving in Phuket and met Benz and Roman the instructor at the shop in Kata.We did a refresher beach dive at Kata beach together with the training dive for the son taking SSI certification. The next day David arranged for a private catamaran to Yanui to complete the training dives as well as recreational dives for the rest of us.We had a great time diving together as a family after almost 2 year break because of covid. Roman was patient with my children with high regards on safety that we felt safe diving with him. Thank you Roman for the great photos and videos as well. David was on the boat ensuring everything was in order and the whole trip was a joy. Thanks PDT for a memorable dive outing in Phuket.

Certificate of Excellence !
