I was recommended GTA by a close family friend. My husband and I did the open water diver course. Everything was great. Everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable. They teach you well and welcome all your questions.Hope I can come back soon. Big shout out to Lucas. He was a great instructor. Also, Anna , Lydia and gang.. everyone helped us feel comfortable and made it a memorable experience.

We had a really great time with Loris, Mike and Ollie who took great care of our group during the basic diver course. I was super nervous after the basics and wasn’t sure I wanted to continue, and they really helped me with confidence to move forward. I’m so grateful they did!

Had the best scuba diving session EVER in Koh Tao. Our instructor Chris made it such an unforgettable experience. A special mention to Beth and Mike for the amazing photography. Ollie gave us an incredible rundown and Logan brought some great vibes to the day. Thanks again!

This dive shop was amazing. My wife and I had a tremendous experience diving for three days. So many people to shout out: Lydia- was our DM the first day and was lots of fun and very easy to work with. Tim was great the next two days for our diving. Very layed back and let us enjoy our fun dives. Ana— lead my wife on a night dive and was very knowledgeable. Oliver- he was on the boat with us and was very helpful. Lucas and Charlie in the shop (and a very nice lady who’s name I don’t remember) were all very helpful and professional. Overall can’t say enough good things and I will certainly come back and dive with them!
