Snorkel Venture Opiniões 

Everything was perfectly organized, the resorts where excelent and, most of all, Duxy is a great, great guide.

Fabulous trip to a truly beautiful location Palau. Very nice liveaboard Palau Aggressor II, excellent crew, maxxed out on snorkelling with 5-6 hours per day, well organised boat, great food, great company.

We had an amazing experience snorkeling with Marcus Blake, our guide from Snorkle Venture. From the start, he was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. Marcus struck the perfect balance between professionalism and a relaxed, confident, fun approach. His sense of humor was enjoyed by all!
What really stood out was Marcus’s passion for marine life. Throughout the trip, he pointed out things we would have easily missed on our own—colorful fish, unique coral formations, and even a few well-hidden creatures tucked into the reef.
Marcus also made sure everyone in the group felt comfortable and safe, regularly checking in and adjusting the pace to match everyone’s needs. The entire experience was smooth and well-organized from beginning to end.
Overall, this wasn’t just a snorkeling trip—it was an unforgettable experience. Marcus was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what he does. We can't wait for our next trip with Marcus and Snorkle Ventrue in 2028!

We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our time on this trip. Marcus, our fantastic tour guide, was there with us every step of the way to ensure that things ran smoothly. As someone with a dietary concern (I'm vegan), Marcus always made sure I was accommodated, even when we were in transit. Both Papua Explorers and Misool did a fantastic job making sure there were always delicious things for me (and everyone) to eat.

The snorkeling at both locations was the best we've ever experienced, and we had every opportunity to snorkel to our heart's content, with at least two and sometimes three guided snorkels per day.

The information Snorkel Ventures provides before, during and after the trip is super helpful, especially for a trip of this duration (we snorkeled for 17 days). I would highly recommend that anyone going on a SV trip read through their blogs for recommended clothes and gear. We followed their recs and were very happy we did.

Marcus was a fantastic guide, helping us improve our photography skills, taking technology questions, teaching us how to better duck dive, and just helping us have a fantastic, stress-free adventure of a lifetime. He is a caring, fun, knowledgeable, problem-solver extraordinaire! 10/10 would recommend.

Our guide Marcus was an exceptional fun guide for our trip to Papua Explorers & Misool Resort in Raja Ampat. He communicated well and the whole group had such a good time. The coral & sealife was over the top beautiful, along with the accommodations & food. We are looking forward to our next Snorkel Venture trip.

It’s a risk to revisit the best vacation one ever had, but this is what we did. Returned after three years to Indonesia with Snorkel Venture and Marcus. And it was just as fantastic. Of course the waters so rich in coral and fish. Papua Explorers was new to us and great. Guided attentive, and general manager so involved. The links with children at nearby village lent another dimension.
All staff at Misool were again so gracious. One feels so cared for.
This was our second trip with Marcus as guide and have signed up for another which speaks volumes. His knowledge of the area, skill in the water are outstanding. He was always checking that things were well, advised, encouraged was excited with us. And of course he is such fun. And he is a true professional, acting respectfully and appropriately with a difficult guest at resort not in our group.

This is our second Snorkel Venture tour to Indonesia. The planning and precise execution makes these trips so enjoyable. Marcus, our guides on both trips (as well as Alex on the first trip) is amazing - his photography, organization & infectious personality are what makes these wonderful trips so extra special! We are already looking forward to our 3rd SV Tour with Marcus as our guide in 2028.

Attention to detail. Everything thought about and planned so it feels seemless

First day was a fabulous tour of Altun-Ha Mayan temple from Belize City, then we went by boat to Turneffe Island Resort. Every day we snorkeled at least twice in groups of 5-12, with one boat captain and a snorkel guide who knew the reefs extremely well. We also did a night snorkel and an excursion to the Blue Hole and Half-Keye Cove. We saw LOTS! Including Eagle Rays, Octopus, Reef Sharks, Large crabs, HUGE Lobsters, and Reef Squid swimming in formation. We had morning breathing workshops, pool breathing work, and freediving practice sessions out in the ocean. The food was fantastic, and the rooms were lovely (with a big screen porch and private screened-in outside shower). Great experience! If you want to learn to freedive and snorkel, this is the trip for you.

Taking Emma Farrell’s shallow-water freediving workshop in Belize (Feb 21-28, 2026) was a life-changing, top-tier experience. Beyond learning to hold my breath, this course focused on profound mental relaxation, breathing techniques, and connecting with the ocean—from morning breathing optimizations sessions to evening Yoga Nidra. Emma is an exceptionally professional, caring instructor dedicated to student confidence. As an experienced snorkeler new to freediving, I gained invaluable safety knowledge and techniques to improve my underwater time. Highly recommended for beginners and experienced divers alike.
A big shout-out to Emma’s team Asha & Alex in Belize to the Snorkel Ventures team in the UK for such a well-organized event! A special thanks to Crystal for keeping me so well-informed throughout the process.

The Guides, the accommodations, the seamless planning and support services when things happen1 Can't say enough about this group. We have been using their adventure services for about 7 trips over 4 years. Indonesia is very challenging logistically. Snorkel Venture smooth's that right over. -Dan Bilderback & Christine Sager-Anchorage,AK

I have just returned from the Shallow Water Free Diving workshop on Turneffe Island Resort. In one week, I've gone from a snorkeler who stayed on the surface to having the skill and confidence to duck dive safely and in correct form. Emma and Asha tirelessly led our group through an unforgettable week of learning and practicing, with immense care, safety, and confidence building, all while creating a fun and nurturing environment. I cannot speak highly enough of Emma, of her passion, skill, energy, patience, organization, and beautiful personality. Asha assisted with great kindness and care, and always with a huge smile and beaming personality. Alex was also on the trip, adding his incredible photographic skills and fun self. I made new friends, learned a new skill, and had so much fun. Turneffe is a beautiful resort! The staff is so outstanding, from the skilled snorkel guides and boat captains (I always felt safe!) to Fidel, the fun bartender, to the incredibly accommodating dining room staff. You will feel very welcomed there. Lastly, I send a major shout out to Crystal, the trip organizer. She could teach a master class on outstanding communication and timely follow up! No question was too small for her. I loved the entire trip and recommend it highly!!!

I've taken 2 international trips with Snorkel Venture and they are an excellent company. Tours are well-organized and are exactly as described in the brochure. They handle all of the details and make it very easy to understand the specifics of the tour. I have enjoyed my trips so much that I have booked several more with them.

This was a trip of a lifetime for me and I never would have been able to do this without Snorkel Venture. Quick connections were expertly navigated by our guide, Marcus and his knowledge of the area helped to heighten our experience when last minute changes were needed. His sense of humor helped keep the spirits high and diffuse any conflicts between guests. The 4 star is only because there is always room for improvement and some of the food left a bit more to be desired. Overall a wonderful trip! Just show up and have a good time! No planning required and every day a new adventure!

Tour leader maestro Dalton and his sleight of hand was magnificent as he smoothed our trip for us, whether managing western expectations, switching languages and cultures, handling small airport check-ins, edging into crannies to get the perfect macro shot, entertaining us punters with card tricks, flicking back one-liners and maintaining an endlessly patient and cheerful face. No mean feat. Everything combined - all creatures great and small below and above water, the delicious food and friendliness of the staff at Papua Explorers - to create a truly wonderful and memorable holiday for me. Thank you all.

We just finished our first Snorkel Venture trip. Dalton was an amazing guide to Triton Bay and Raja Ampat. He navigates his way around both areas with seemingly no effort. Everything that was promised was delivered. We had a great time getting to know our fellow snorkelers, and look forward to seeing them again soon in another trip.

One of the best experiences of my life. The snorkeling locations we went to were absolutely incredible and the service they provide is unbeatable. Couldn’t recommend it enough and will absolutely be traveling again with them! Dalton our tour leader was an amazing guide as well. Couldn’t be happier with my experience

I admit to being a snorkeling addict. There is nowhere I am more at peace than being in a magnificent ocean environment. I have traveled to six different countries on Snorkel Venture trips and the experiences have all been exceptional. Their Tour Guides each bring a unique wealth of knowledge from world travels and spending so much of their careers underwater. The willingness of the Guides to share insights about creatures, equipment, other snorkeling areas or photography skills is always appreciated. And honestly, the Guides are as excited as the guests every time we enter the water. It's different every single time! The office crew of Snorkel Venture team does a top notch job with all the arrangements needed to provide a unique and unforgettable adventure. No details are left to chance and I am thoroughly pleased to have someone else sweat the small stuff should a glitch arise (like a plane is delayed) . I have found it is a service well worth paying for. Traveling solo can be a bit nerve wracking in third world countries and I can honestly say I have felt 100% safe whether in or out of the water with Snorkel Venture. I have two trips with Snorkel Venture in 2026 and every adventure just leaves me signing on for more.

Had an amazing trip to Triton Bay and Raja Ampat including a whale shark encounter that I will remember and treasure for ever. Everything was well organised and, as a solo traveller, I felt well looked after. Our guide Marcus was looking out for us at all times and worked so hard to make sure we were happy.

Snorkel Venture made our dreams come true - snorkelling with whale shark (dolphins too 👀) & manta rays. From booking to travel & accommodation Snorkel Venture made it easy for us. Our British tour leader was a brilliant photographer & expert on marine life.
