"Yeh its realy cool, definitely made the right decision doing this and thanks for all the help, the place is gorgeous, it's cheap to live and the diving is amazing, we saw a whale shark today, absolutely stunning, thanks for all the help" - Warren

"I wanted to go travelling on my own, but I didnt have the guts to just turn up in Bangkok and then go 'er... now what?!'. Knowing that there was going to be someone there to meet me, knowing that I had somewhere to stay, and also just having someone to introduce me was all that I needed really, and that was the least of what PoD could do. Also, they've got me into diving, which I personally believe is the best thing since bread itself was invented, so I'd recommend it to anyone who I can get to stand still long enough! Sorry to quote dirty dancing, but I had the time of my life!" - Nicole

"Having an awesome time here thankyou!! Just finished my advanced open water course gonna take a break for x-mas. Iwill keep you updated!!" - Justin

"This is just a quick email to tell you that I am now a fully qualified OWSI (Instructor). Thank you for all of your help in organising this entire package, I have had an awesome time, met some amazing people, been to some amazing places, and done some pretty amazing things. Now I'm off to (hopefully) find a job somewhere around the Caribbean!" - Alex

"I would just like to thank you for all the stuff you have helped me with, it's paradise here, enjoying it so much that I am having doubts about going back. Diving is great and the staff are a blast!" - Damien

"Having a great time here Alex. The people are great, the weather is hot and sunny, and the diving is fantastic. We just finished our Rescue Diver course today and we're doing a Nitrox course tomorrow and then start our DMT on Saturday. Looking forward to the next couple of months!" - Jay

"The staff were friendly and professional and the accommodation was clean and comfortable. Koh Tao is a beautiful island with clear waters full of life, good food and lots of great bars! Will definitely be going back! Thank you again for helping me organise the trip at such short notice" - Daniel

"The thing that really made a difference to me was that you gave the impression that you were not just interested in making money but in giving us a good experience. The quality of the service and information provided was far above what you could expect from a standard travel agency and you are clearly interested in the local community as well" - Chris

"The Divemaster program has been fantastic, its been bloody hard at times but now I look back its been brilliant. Wanted to thank you guys for arranging all this for me, the information provided has been spot on and you have helped me if I have had any problems. The service you have provided has been second to none. I was a bit anxious when I first came out here, but what a great place to learn how to dive and progress to Divemaster. I will definitely be putting in for my internship and instructor training, and of course will do it through you guys" - Mark

"Great – really helpful with questions and phone calls etc. And help finding way there. Ending up staying 6 months and am going back next year. Made so many friends this placement was amazing. And have finally figured out my career in diving. Thanks" - Louise

"Koh Tao is amazing I love it here!  Really enjoying the diving and I'm really pleased with the dive school, the service is great!
Me and Sophie were on the same open water course so we've been socialising and eating together I have also met Dave who is doing the same thing as me through PoD and we are both starting our rescue diver tomorrow, which I am quite looking forward to but I know it will be tough! 
Thanks for everything I can't fault PoD and will definitely recommend in the future" - Kat

"Everything was extremely well organised and I had so much fun!" - Duncan

"Whenever I had a question it was answered easily and clearly. Dive school was very professional and in-depth. PoD is the best thing I have done in my life. I have a memory everyday of my venture. Met so many different people from different countries & cultures which broadened my knowledge. The diving is a massive achievement which is impossible to not talk about or keep up. I dreamt of going to Thailand & making the most of my gap year, without PoD & friendly support I wouldn’t have left England. The 2 months I was there was the best 2 months of my life. I couldn’t explain but once you’ve been you’ll understand" - Lydia

"What a place, was brilliant, hope to go back next year. The dive school staff were really nice, diving was incredible. Would recommend POD because it easy to deal with and I had a great time" - Ross

"The application process was extremely easy and hassle free. Plus I had good correspondence through friendly emails. The dive school was like a second home and I made some fantastic friends. The school was friendly, helpful and informative. The diving was nice, apart from the trigger fish! I definitely recommend PoD and this placement. The organisation offers you support and the confidence to go travelling" - Jen

"Absolutely wonderful, it was the best experience of my life and I plan to go back next summer. The dive school was good. Would recommend PoD because they sort everything for you" - Alex

"Information pack was very useful and had had up to date information. Dive school brilliant, staff were very enthusiastic and great laugh" - Glynn

"Application process, information pack and correspondence were very good, always well informed and updated, very helpful. Really good fun, loved the diving and dive community, really chilled lifestyle. I had a totally amazing time and want to thank you for everything" - Emma

"This was really good. Has a personal feel to PoD not just like buying a placement from faceless company. PoD was brilliant if you were in the same boat as most of us. Didn’t really know anyone that was serious about going abroad but didn’t want to go by yourself and also didn’t have a clue where to start" - Ryan

"Absolutely fantastic, very relaxed and reassuring atmosphere. Dive school was top class with extremely helpful staff. The dive sites were also very beautiful. The whole experience was fantastic. I never felt out of my depth" - Anon

"Application very easy, loads of information given, always available to answer questions. I definitely recommend PoD, great way to experience what Thailand has to offer and meet new people" - Dave

"I have no complaints at all. Requests for information were swift and professional. The dive school was run well. All the staff were excellent, great for beginners" - Michael

"Very informative and easy. I felt reassured to have the support as it was my first time having to organise such a trip. I would not have known where to start" - Dominique
