"The team was extraordinarily nice! We came way too late because we got a little lost and didn't get the right exits in Marseille. I called them and didn't think we could make the trip, but they called back and assured us that they'd wait a few minutes more. Once there out of breath, the receptionists and instructors were super nice, calmed us down that we don't have to stress us anymore! The instructor always made sure to show my 10year old stepson everything during the trip. We felt ourselves in very good hands! If we come back to the region and plan on going diving or snorkeling again - we'll definitely book again at Le Bateau Jaune! Merci beacoup to the whole team!"
"It was a lovely day with a great Crew! I knew I was in good hands. I felt safe and cared for and I am so glad that I went! Thank you Jeremy, Maxime, and the beautiful woman, all the people, who made it a good time!"
