Wow! Cheng Ho is different because he pays attention to the little things. We always had clean towels, our accommodation was cleaned twice a day, and there were tiny surprises like snacks after the night dive. The variety of life in Raja Ampat is amazing. Thanks to everyone on the crew for an amazing trip.
