Customer reviews:
"MV would be a better name, since the crew did not remember when the sails were used the last time. The boat is really comfortable, the crew is very nice and eager to help. Divemasters were very experienced and really knew the sites we went diving. The food was of good quality and more than enough.." - Robert Westland, USA, 21 December 2014 ...
"The crew & divemasters were really friendly and helpful guys. But still I have to say that Mona Lisa is not very modernly equipped: such as we have to get to a speedboat for each dive rather than simply jump off the back of the mother boat." - Yuyao Wang, China, 21 March 2014 ...
