My guide Safooh has done a great job in introducing Maldivian culture and way of life.

This agency was the best thing I could ask for to plan my Maldives holidays. Alex search for everything I wanted, and he delivered everything to the best rate I could find. Even in covid times, when I was not sure if I would be able to travel, he assured me of everything he figured out options stray away. He was super professional, polite, reasonable and correct! He made my Maldives holidays the perfect dream :) I was 3 nights at a local island and 4 nights at a resort. I had to worry about nothing, he organized the transfers and the hotels. I am really happy to have contacted him to plan my holidays. Thank you so much Alex for everything.

Our party of 8 booked the Snorkeling Adventure Tour on Feb 23, 2020 with Hey Maldives. We were not aware that Hey Maldives had contracted the tour to UI Maldives thus this review. This tour was a nightmare to HELL! We are seasoned travelers and never had we experienced what happened on the seas! We arrived at 8:55 am to the pier expecting to board the boat as our tour starts at 9am. The boat Rep informed us, we leave at 9:30am as they were waiting for 18 more people for the boat. And here we understood we had booked a private group tour and not a large group tour?? 9:30am, he says another 15 mins, then another 15 mins. By this time, it is after 10 am. We board an old unkept and dirty boat but do not leave right away while the motor is idling and we wait. We ask why are we not leaving yet? No reply! Then a big group of 13 come aboard and we hear the Rep say we only have room for 8. But they let them on anyways! The boat was already full with no more seating capacity! And where do they sit? They all head to the front of the boat and stand and sit on the front of the boat, which is clearly UNSAFE, DANGEROUS and ILLEGAL! There is a sign stating MAXIMUM capacity is 30 and we now have 39 passengers! And this does not include the crew of the boat! We raised alarms about sufficient life jackets for everyone as boat is over capacity. The boat Rep claimed there is enough life jackets for everyone but failed to give everyone one! With an over capacity boat, we go ahead and leave. By this time, the seas are rough for our 1 ½ hour trip to the Sand Bank and way too rough to do any snorkeling at all. We leave the Sand bank about noon. By this time, the weather had changed more drastically with strong winds, choppy seas and high swells. Our boat ride back to shore was a nightmare! The boat rocked from side to side and I was very afraid that the boat would capsize and with insufficient life jackets for all! During our ride back, passengers fell out of their seats and on to the floor, while others screamed for their lives! Clearly, we were all alarmed for our safety. Fortunately, we arrived close to shore without any incidents. The tour included picnic lunch and instead they pulled 2 boats side by side and served lunch on another boat that was also full of passengers. We did not want to have lunch and insisted to be taken ashore as we all had enough of this tour! It is clear this tour is not as advertised! After much arguing, the boat rep agreed to take us ashore on another smaller boat. Registration # of the UI Maldives boat P1779A-02(01-G). We notified Hey Maldives immediately about this tour and how unsafe and dangerous it was at sea. They agreed to a FULL refund which has never materialized! DO NOT use either company as they have NO regard for tourist safety!

He’s the only one who could get us through the 5-star resorts during the last minute. Our choice was between Club Med Kani and Adaaran Prestige Vadoo while the other agencies can only get us to 4-star ones. Impeccable communication and customer service too. Very detailed and very accurate. Best wishes to you. ????
