We will try to follow this itinerary as much as possible, but this itinerary is susceptible to changes in times and dive sites due to unforeseen circumstances and safety reasons. Some of the Burma Diving Safaris dive sites are a selection of unique sites discovered by us on the Dolphin Queen over the past five seasons.


For our guests who want to fly to Ranong, Nok Air, AirAsia are flying to Ranong from Don Mueang (domestic airport Bangkok).
We can pick you up from the airport or hotel in Ranong.
