What our divers say
Great dive school, fantastic instructors and friendly owner who comes out to chat with everyone! Everyone here is super nice and mostly all instructors are from the Netherlands. It's been over a decade since I've completed my Open Water, Advanced and Rescue so started with a quick refresh course and then did fun dives. Huuuge thanks to Mona and Nina for the fun dives, I can't recommend them enough! They bring a laser with them and point out cool stuff under water! Also want to mention that I actually became nauseous before my dive with Nina and even cramped in my upper leg while in the water. During our briefing and in the water she consistently ensured I was okay at all times, making sure safety and health was the highest priority so it made me feel very comfortable and safe (she really is terrific!). Fortunately the cramp and nausea went away so ended up having so much fun on our 1:1 dives!! Oh, and they've got a professional photographer who's also super nice (Oscar) who comes along and takes amazing pics and edits them beautifully. For a little fee, you can order them :).

GoogleDiving with Impian Divers is a welcoming and friendly warm experience. I was lucky to learn the Full Face Mask diving with an expert elite diver called Michel. Its the only place on Koh Tao that offer the full face mask speciality which is necessary if you are like me and dont have a lower gum or set of teeth. It's a good school and vibe. Ill be back😉

TripAdvisorGreat well organized diving school. Great diving school! With all these fine people. We hadn't dived for six years and our 15-year-old daughter had never dived. So we first went for the refresher course and our daughter for a discovery dive. We were able to do this together which was certainly very nice for our daughter. Our dive instructor Zono was great! Thanks to the flexibility of Impian Divers and Zono the instructor who gave up his day off to teach and take our daughter all exercises quickly 1 on 1 Lieke was able to complete the open water diver course in 2.5 days before we continued our trip through Thailand, totally great! We have made some nice and well organized dives around Koh Tao.

TripAdvisorTop experience at Impian Divers The last three days we did our Open Water Course with Rick from Impian Divers. He guided us very pleasantly and made sure we felt comfortable, even with exercises that were exciting. It was nice that the group was small, so it was never crowded and we had enough time to practice everything quietly. We also really liked that the lessons were just given in Dutch, which makes it a bit easier and clearer. During the dives Rick also showed us a lot of fish, which made it extra fun. We had such a good time that we immediately booked a fundive. We absolutely recommend this diving school! Thanks so much for the good guidance!

TripAdvisorGood and happy days with impian diverse Had very nice days with Impian diverse for getting our open water diving license. Didn’t happen “by itself” for all of us, but with very calmness and understanding of instructor Kamal we succeeded! We had already done the e-learning at home, we were happy with that afterwards, saves another "obligation" on vacation. Very experienced instructors and equipment very well in order!
