Tour Leader
DION has been a part of the SeaTrek family since 2019. Originally from Bitung in North Sulawesi and now living in Bali, Dion worked for ten years as a tour guide in his home province, where he was involved in many conservation projects. He went on to work for the government tourism office and then managed a resort on the gorgeous Island of Bunaken off the coast of Manado.
Dion is greatly interested in cultures, wildlife, and the underwater world and he has developed a keen passion for photography & videography.
Great snorkeling, relaxing trip and the food was good. Anastasia was a great tour leader. Swimming with whale sharks was a highlight.
The guides (especially Tinae) handled our endless questions about things like pros. They were well-informed, incredibly helpful, but also so fun to be with. … Tinae also acted as the photographer and I just got the pictures she took, which was great because I have no other underwater photos.
Our tour leader, Dion, was so knowledgable about wildlife and Indonesian history and culture. He went out of his way to make sure every guest had the opportunity to see what they wanted to see and answered every question so thoroughly.
The tour leader was very knowledgeable about the sea life and cultures we encountered on the many islands we visited, and the crew made us feel at home on the boat (good food, too!).
