I had an amazing week on the Red Sea Aggressor IV and t days on the Aggressor Nile Queen. The Red Sea diving was good. The Aggressor staff was excellent, but the food quality was not to the standards I would expect. The 2 RHIBs have seen better days are overdue for replacement. The group assembled by Jay, Ninga Divers, were all easy to dive and hang with during the day. I hope to dive with you again soon,

This is the third trip we've done with Jay and Dive Ninja. Once again, we were not disappointed. Jay always has great energy he brings to the trips. We all had an amazing time. In fact we spent some time figuring out our next couple of trips while on board with Jay. There always has to be the next trip on the horizon. Jay and his team make it so easy, I'm going to continue to book more trips as they become available. Thanks again to Jay and his team!! Shari Sicsko- Kona Hawaii

This was my second time traveling with Dive Ninjas and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Not only have the last two trips I've been on been amazing, Jay is such a wonderful host. Tiger Beach is such an experience. Diving with Epic Diving on site was awesome, you can tell Deb and Vin are truly passionate about what they do and they have so much love for the tiger sharks. From the safety briefings on the way out, to the vibe on the boat in between dives, it was all around a great experience, especially with a smaller group. What is really wonderful about this experience is it is a stationary dive so once you get down to the sand, you just sit and watch the show - meaning you can also stay down for a longer period of time. Unfortunately, Mother Nature was not kind to us on our second day of diving so we were not able to go out. Jay, Deb, and Vin gave us some alternative options and we were able to squeeze in 3 dives on our last day to make up for the loss of a day of diving. Weather changes is something that cannot always be accounted for, but both Dive Ninjas and Epic Diving put our safety at the top of their priority list and that is truly what matters. This is definitely a trip I will be repeating and I look forward to more trips with Dive Ninjas.

Great people, not so great diving, stuck in harbour for two days. Ninja did everything possible, but it badly effected the holiday vibe. A muteny was threatening, because people were uninformed and left in the dark with conspiracy theories and the internet. I would have expect Ninja to step up and be more visible to deal with the participants. The Agressor rooms were big, with big windows. I thought the food was bad / cheap. Lots of fried stuff and meat, often unrecognizable, with people guessing what it is. And never getting it right 🤣. Absolutely no healthy options, no real vegetarian options. In this day and age, di we really need 2 types of meat in every single meal? I am not a vegetarian, but I don't need mystery meat in every single meal. The whale shark course was interesting, with homework and pointers for encounters. Also, the course would end with a final session, whether or not we saw whale sharks. That session never took place, nor was there any announcement that the final session wasn't happening. I think another example that Ninja had given up in this trip. Overall, very disappointed with the trip.

Had an excellent diving adventure in the Philippines, with a great staff and crew who made the trip enjoyable and comfortable. Food was well prepared, tasty, and plentiful, room was clean and spacious, with good storage and efficient air conditioning, and the dive deck was well organized with plenty of outlets to recharge batteries and room to set up scuba and camera gear. Special thanks to Jay and Talal for a memorable trip!
