So we dove with Herbert for four days (Jan 11 to 14 2021) and we’re very satisfied with our time with him. He was kind, confident, flexible, easy-going and had great customer service skills..(you don’t always find that in a dive master.) I felt perfectly confident about his abilities and because he was a chemical engineer in a previous life, he is a man good with details. If you are looking for a fun safe time he is your man.…

If you're looking to get your open water certification, look no further! Herbert is not only very knowledgeable and professional, he also provides a calm and reassuring presence for new divers. I was nervous about performing some skills during training, but with Herbert's guidance and patience, I was able to overcome my fears and fully enjoy the experience of exploring the underwater world! As well, Herbert has a quick wit and decades worth of diving stories that we enjoyed hearing between dives. He was very responsive to communications and adaptable to our needs/requests. I would highly recommend Herbert and Aqua Track for all your Dominican diving needs!…

We went scuba diving with Herbert for three days and had a wonderful time! My girlfriend did her PADI Open Water certification and I joined along on the dives, being already certified. I was very impressed with Herbert's knowledge and professionalism. As many of the other reviews mention, Herbert will pick you up at your residence/hotel and during the drive to the water will share many interesting facts and stories about the Dominican Republic. We will not be diving with anyone else during our time in the Dominican Republic!…

My wife and I are still relatively new to diving. We have only been on about 15 dives prior. Herbert was very patient with us and went the extra mile to point out things that made us better divers overall. We were able to tell him areas where we needed some more work, and he taught us ways to be better. We went on four dives over two days. Two wrecks and two reefs. Wife told him she wanted to see turtles, and he found us turtles. We had a lot of fun. After the first day when Herbert noticed we had no dive camera he volunteered to take photos of us with his go pro on the second day. Can't recommend diving here enough. He also went out of his way to pick us up in Cap Cana, which may not sound like much, but with the Covid curfew he was nudging his 7PM deadline each evening. He also makes a great tour guide and points out a lot of historical and cultural things about the Dominican Republic while in transit.…

We used Herbert with Aqua Track to get our PADI Open water Certification. We had such an awesome experience that we opted to move forward and get our Advanced Open Water with him the next week. His priority on safety made the experience stress free and allowed my husband and I to focus on the skills we were learning/practicing. I have utmost confidence that should something go wrong on a dive, we have the training necessary to stay calm and solve the problem before it becomes life threatening. We will for sure be using him when the time comes for the kids to get SCUBA certified! We did a combined 9 dives plus pool time. His prices were competitive, but I feel you get the most bang for your buck with Herbert because of his 40+ years of diving experience. He tailors his teaching around your comfort level/learning style and doesn't try to rush through the training just to get you done. Make sure to pack a towel, some sun screen, and maybe a snack. Herbert takes care of everything else.…
