The Emperor Superior's ample space is fully utilised by a huge saloon with a segregated dining area, 2 sundecks equipped with a hot tub, and a spacious dive deck and platform.

| Customer reviews: |
"Emperor get 5/5 for the way they run things. Best feature was post-dive diver check-in using the dive tanks and the dive stats log. Minimal risk of being left behind, which is more than I can say for shore dive operations at places such as Titanic." - Rob Koch, South Africa ...
"Had a good trip, excellent diving and the wrecks were spectacular. Excellent all around. Only complaint was sharing a cabin and had the top bunk, which was awkward to get in and out of, especially with a stranger in the bottom bunk. Note: I did not raise this issue with the operator, as I knew there were no other accommodation available. Just slept most nights on the top deck. Only reason not a 5 out of 5 is the bunk bed as mentioned above and the fact that we spent the first and last nights on the boat tied up in the harbour. Would have rather had 5 nights on the boat and spent the other 2 in a hotel." - Scott Curry, USA ...
