Maldives 2025 - My trip to the Maldives was nothing short of amazing! The crystal-clear blue waters were absolutely amazing, and snorkeling was 10/10. I loved the perfect balance of group activities and solo timeβ€”whether it was enjoying adventures with new friends or finding quiet moments to relax on my own, there was something for everyone. The experience was truly magical.

Amazing tour in a dream location 🌴 - What an amazing week we had on this 7 day tour with Autopia! We had 2 full days out in the ocean, snorkelling with dolphins, turtles, nurse sharks and the most colourful fish you can think of (remember to bring you sea sickness tablets as it was a little bouncyπŸ˜…). The water is so incredibly blue and beautiful! The remaining days were free time and we could relax by the beach or book other water activities (we booked jet skis and another day did a day trip to one of the luxury islands near by). Everyone in the group was so lovely and we ended up spending a lot of time together and making some new friendships.

A trip that will make your eyes sparkle - A little bit of something for everyone. Truth be told I always thought of the Maldives as a honeymoon or dive boat destination but this trip with Autopia had opened my eyes to the fact it’s a place for everyone. The snorkelling is fun and safe with calm and easy conditions for everyone. Shopping on the island is so relaxing, no merchants trying the hard sell and their customer service is great. All up the tour is a perfect mix of free time and group time with options to add experiences like Whaleshark Swims or days on the beach, it’s a choose your own adventure which is really unique for a tour. Getting to the island is one of the most exciting travel experiences, arrive at the airport, cross the road and straight onto a boat for the transfer to Maafushi. Such a great welcome to island life. Food on the island has many options to choose from, fresh juice drinks are really tasty and the selections of food are everything from western style burgers to Indian curry and middle eastern dishes.

Once in a lifetime holiday ✨️ πŸ’• - I had such an amazing time exploring the Maldives with Autopia Tours. ❀️ The tour was a great combination of preorganised activities and free time. The two snorkelling trips included were the highlights! I'd never snorkelled with tawny nurse sharks or dolphins before, and I loved it! The boat operators were really great bunch, we all had lots of fun on the boats πŸ˜πŸ‘ŒπŸ½ I also ended up doing a few additional activities with the group, like a bonfire dinner at a sandbar (incredible!) and a day visit to one of the private resort islands, which was well worth the price with the all inclusive drinks. πŸ˜€ It was great to have the support and help of a guide all the way through the week to organise everything, and I enjoyed meeting new people as part of the tour. Sharing these incredible places ans experiences with others made the whole week that much better πŸ₯°πŸ™πŸΌ

Magnificent Maafushi Island Maldives - Wow wow wow. What a fantastic week we all had in Maafushi. Cross the road from the airport and speed boat is ready and waiting to take you to Maafushi. Had a relaxing welcome dinner where we met new friends. What an epic few adventures we shared with plenty of time to explore and relax if that’s what you want to do. We had a great time snorkeling with some dolphins and sharks on different days. I chose to do an optional submarine tour to get a closer look at the fishies as I’m not a great swimmer. Awesome time spent on a private island. We had a wonderful dinner and bon fire on a sandbank with the setting sun one side and full moon the other. I spent a couple of days relaxing on the island. Our trip was capped of by another delicious farewell dinner on the beach. Need to say a huge thank you to all who assisted getting this older lady (me) safely on and off multiple boats. Thanks to all at #Autopia Tours for a memorable experience to check off my bucket list.
