Reviews
“I have done 3 trips with Insider Divers and already have my next one booked - this time I will swim with whales. Simon Lorenz manages trip details thoroughly, making it as effortless as possible for the divers. The most recent trip was Galapagos, and the mix of land and sea arrangements, taking into consideration the rules and policies of the park, were quite intricate, but all we needed to do was show up (on time please!) because all of the heavy lifting was done by Simon. It is also valuable that he is an award-winning underwater photographer so after the trip, we get pro photos to keep the memories alive for a lifetime! ”
”I’ve done a few trips with Insider Divers and plan to join more. I have had so much fun every time and learned so much. Insider Divers offers detailed and catered experiences that make sure you get the most out of any destination. Also they help to make you a much better diver plus I’ve met so many awesome people from all over the world."
“Simon's organization and communication pre-trip and during the trip is more than you could possibly ask for. His research into the various dive sites in the world guarantees you are going to be in the right part of the world at the right time with the most professional operators in the area. I loved the talks and presentations in between the dives and I learned a tremendous amount about photography and marine biology. Also, Simon is a very skilled photographer and he took several of me that I will cherish.”

FAQ
What is the minimum diving experience needed?
Different expeditions call for different experience levels, but generally none of our trips are suited for complete beginners. Our easiest itineraries require at least 25 logged dives, ensuring you have the comfort and control needed for more advanced underwater environments.
All expeditions also require an Advanced Open Water certification (or equivalent) and Nitrox — both mandatory across our entire program — so every diver arrives prepared for depth, safety, and extended bottom times.
Will I get professional underwater photos?
All our Insider guides are professional underwater photographers who aim to take pictures of the marine wildlife, hopefully with you in it. Our Insiders are great at taking the photos AND at coaching you how to look good in them.
After the trip your photos will appear in your Insider Divers Portal.
Do you offer individual bookings?
Our business model is built around fully chartered, expertly guided group expeditions. We don’t offer individual bookings to our destinations because only a dedicated, cohesive group allows us to control every element of the experience — ensuring the quality, safety, and atmosphere that define our trips.
