Susi - Switzerland
Liebe Maya, liebes Raja4Divers Team
Zum ersten Mal die Schweiz so verlassen, dass ich dabei die Zeitzone überschritten habe. Gelandet auf einer Insel, auf der die Bewohner einem tanzend und singend empfangen. Immer mit einem Lächeln im Gesicht uns Gäste, sei es über oder unter Wasser, verwöhnen und betreuen. Beeindruckt und berührt von der Natur und der Schnorchelwelt verlasse ich heute die Insel wieder und nehme dankbar meine reichgefüllten Sinne mit nach Hause.
Speziellen Dank an Dich Maya, dass wir so viel Zeit mit Mark verbringen durften. Danke Euch allen und seid von Herzen umarmt.

Liebe "Pefuaner",
auch wir bedanken uns für die 2 fantastischen Wochen auf dieser herrlichen Insel!
Vielen Dank an alle "Mitwirkenden"; ob Tauchbasis, Küche, Gästebetreuung, Housekeeping, Management oder alle anderen "nicht sichtbaren" Hände - für alle gilt hier:
Prädikat: Besonders wertvoll, besonders empfehlenswert!!
Bei uns zu Hause würden wir sagen: "schön, so schön..me, wat war dat schön"
In diesem Sinne verbleiben wir (vielleicht bis zum nächsten Mal)
Die liebe Sylvia + Dirk

Liebes PEF - Team!
Da ich des reimen und dichten nicht mächtig bin mache ich es kurz. Nach mühevollem Start war es ein tolles Erlebnis das ihr mir bereitet habt.
Deshalb sage ich "Auf Wiedersehen" im nächsten Jahr.

Dear Pefers
Thank you once again for another 'trip of a lifetime!' The diving was even better here than I remember from last year - and last year was awesome! It's nice to see the ducks on the beach with their four teenagers (they were just a couple last year) and how well some of the corals on on the rocks along the pier have thrived. We loved seeing all those black-tip reef thanks along the shore ~ it must be a very safe place for them to hang out. The look out tower was a really nice addition with a most unforgettable view. Thanks to all the people here that made our week so special memorable ~ we will never forget your hospitality and kindness.
xoxo

I'm looking froeard to the time this reef is full of coral and fish! See you next time and terima kasih! Mica Erdmann Horan <3

Huong, Christophe, Killian & Hugo - Indonesia
After having been over 6 years in Indonesia, finally we made it to Raja Ampat. Better late than never. And here it is one truth:
PARADIES in RAJA AMPAT
I personally think it is my best dive trip ever. The resort Raja4Divers makes our stay even much more meaningful as the lady owner and her team are very, very kind, helpful, friendly, funny and their warm, cosy bungalow all will remain our best moments / souvenirs in our life.
Our boys Hugo (8 years) and Killian (11 years) would dearly miss them as they have been looked after with full attention & love.
Thank you so much.
We'll miss you and we plan to be back.
