Diving with Koh Tao Divers was an absolute blast – quite literally! From the moment I stepped into... read more
I'm currently just a PADI OWSI and I've been meaning to dive into tech for awhile now. Went in for a meeting and was helped by Mikko himself. We talked for 45 minutes about what will best suit me and how to get to where I want to be. We decided to start with the SSI Extended Range Sidemount doubled with the Independent Diver courses as a way for me to start going solo for photography purposes. Boy was that one of the greatest decisions I've ever made! Mikko is an incredibly experienced diver and not only knows what he's talking about, but also provides tips and tricks from doing such diving for so long. He challenged me while never feeling unsafe. He's currently in southern Thailand working to find a new cave system (aka doing what he does) but can't wait until he's back so I can continue to learn from him. On top of all of this he is a very outgoing person and just a pure joy to be around. As for getting my materials and all the logistics involved in the course, it was smooth as could be and their office and shop operate with a high level of efficiency. All in all, having worked in a few different countries as an instructor and diving in a few more I can confidently say Koh Tao Divers was the most enjoyable to dive with. Well worth my time and money.
Thank you very much for this great review! Mikko also send his greetings:
"Onwards and downwards as we divers tend to say👌 I got some more tricks in my sleeve for the Extended Range deco course for you Trey. See you soon mate! - Mikko"
Last month I joined two fun dives with KTD and I couldn't ask for a better experience. Firstly, as a well experienced dive professional I got teamed up with a fantastic dive master and a fellow fun diver who was a DM himself - it was great because we were all at the same diving level so the dives were extra enjoyable.
Secondly, the equipment was in perfect shape and the team was brilliant - such lovely people!
And of course, the cherry on top was the rich marine life we saw underwater with a close encounter with a whale shark!!!
Highly recommended!!
Thank you very much for this great review! Enjoy rest of your travels! :)
It is always nice to visit KTD. Great and happy stuff who always asking also wish of customers example divesites etc. I have been diving with them for six years and more to come. Until next time!

I spent 1 week in Koh Tao, having 6 days of diving. Since the first contact, KTD team was great, answering to all my question and helping with logistics to get there.
Once on site, all was just great. Together with other experienced divers met on site I had 6 great days of diving, where we could really enjoy the sites without rush. The team always picked the good spots at the right schedules for getting us out of the crowds of other boats, and had nice surface intervals with fruits, cookies, etc. To note also free Nitrox when certified.
All really professional, and creating a friendly atmosphere.. including the beers after the dives or the evening BBQ to share experiences.
Can absolutely recommend and I am myself looking forward to go again
Thanks KTD, "Diving sucks" ;)
