I live here. That is the whole difference.

There are more than 7 000 islands here and roughly twenty of them are genuinely ready for international travellers. Knowing which twenty, and which season, and which side of each island, is not something you can learn from a booking site.

So I do the boring part myself. I visit hotels and ask to see three rooms. I take the ferries and note when they actually depart. I eat in the restaurants I recommend and I dive with the centres I book. When something drops in quality, I remove it from my list the same week.

My clients are couples, families and divers who have two or three weeks and cannot afford to lose four days to bad routing. What I sell is not a discount. It is the certainty that every night, every transfer and every boat has been chosen by someone who was standing there.
