Recientemente he hecho mi certificado de Open water y no puedo estar más agradecido, son muy profesionales y super organizados. Yo en particular he realizado el curso con Lea que es encantadora y muy paciente para enseñarte todo al detalle, lo más importante que te hace sentir seguro. Volveré para realizar el Advanced con ellos y segurísimo para realizar más inmersiones. Gracias por todo! Ich habe vor kurzem mein Open Water Certificate gemacht und bin ihnen sehr dankbar. Sie sind sehr professionell und sehr gut organisiert. Ich habe insbesondere den Kurs mit Lea gemacht, sie ist sehr nett und sehr geduldig, um einem alles ausfürlich beizubringen, und vor allem fühlt man sich jederzeit sicher. Ich werde wiederkommen, um den Kurs für Fortgeschrittene bei ihnen zu machen, und sicher auch, um weitere Tauchgänge zu machen. Vielen Dank für Alles Ian Alexander18 January 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thanks Myles & team for an excellent diving experience !!

Luuk Hoogland24 December 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very cool experience. Our guide Mario was very nice, helping us through our first time diving. He was explaining everything we needed to know and was always making sure we were having fun. Great experience overall! Søren Larsen21 December 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lovely experince, they were all so welcoming and nice. Lea/Leah did a wonderful job as an instructor to make you feel safe and was fast at assisting with my equipment if i was in need of help. I would 100pct use Brothers Diving again if i return to Gran Canaria in the future. As a very extra plus they transfer you from your hotel and home again. A taxi would cost 16 euros from my hotel one way trip so thats a HUGE discount in the total price. Another side note, they book a privat boat Monday, Wednesday, Friday with a local Captain at the cost of 40 euros pr person. Kind regards Søren/Soren
