Hey Toodus,
Thx for your superb info and pix for Mantanani...!!!
U look very familiar...hahaa!!  :D

I've been to Mantanani myself last April and it was splendid..!!
The sea was so calm that day...!!

Chip,
The trip is planned for 2 dives / day.
On the day of arrival will be rest and relax.
Diving starts on the second day.
If u have your own group of 8 pax above then I can arrange transport according to your flight time and u can arrive in Mantanani on the same day.
If less pax then u will need to stay a night in KK then board their pick-up at 7.15am the next day.

I have 2 trips now which is on the 28-1 May & 17-20 May.
May is their Peak Season ya so I advise to book early.  ;)

Interested, u cn give me a call 019-6323485

Sorry, forgot about the other questions... :D
2) Meals are not included, u can pre-order or just order when u get there as the meals are ala-carte.
3) The package are inclusive of Full Equipment. If u have your own equipment just deduct RM30 / person / one time charge (they do not calculate per day)
4) As for other charges, there's no other cost incurred unless u wish to add dives. The diving rate is slightly cheaper with me.
- 1 leisure dive = RM170 / person (selling RM180)
- 2 leisure dives = RM290 / person (selling RM300)
- 3 leisure dives = RM390 / person (selling RM400)

For someone who is operating a Travel and Tour, you are still not giving the full picture to your would be customers.
 
You are more interested to sell extra dives then to give the information of how many dives in total are you providing in your package? And since you don't provide meals, what's the cost of meals on the island? Anything that a customer has to pay besides the stated amount and not clarified are hidden cost, whether you are charging them or someone else is charging them.

Dear Steven

Sorry didn't put the full details down but I hope the details below helps:-

1) If u notice my first post, it is stated below 'Package Includes', 4 Leisure dives INCLUDING EQUIPMENT.

2) They do not have any package meals, only Ala-Carte type meals which is from their Menu. U can pre-order them for your trip or u can just order when u are there. The rates are the same whether u pre-order or not. Roughly around RM15 / meal (Fried Rice, Fried Noodles, Spaghetti...etc...) If u would like to pre-order then I will email u the menu list.

3) Land transfer is fixed daily at 7.30am pick up from Wisma Sabah KK. They do not pick-up any other time. But I can arrange airport pick up and boat transfer according to your flight time if there is a minimum of 8 pax.

4) There are no other hidden cost or cost to be paid to any other person unless u wish to do any other additional activities which is not stated in our package.

5) I've just been informed that they have changed their diving schedule and rates calculation based on the rates we booked.
Eg. If i calculate the dives at 3 + 1 dive then u will have to do 3 dives one day and 1 the next day.
The rates that I gave earlier is based on 3 + 1 dives
If u prefer 2 + 2 dives then just add another RM20 / person to the package rates.

FIRST DAY
Pick up from airport to Kuala Abai jetty
Boat transfer from Kuala Abai jetty to Mantanani Island
