This is a broad-brushed question that, I hope, will result in lots of answers. For the most part, I'm a single diver. I am looking for any trip anywhere in the world that is organized as group travel, such as through your local dive shop or dive clubs. I prefer land-based trips because of the single penalty on a liveaboard that charges double the price. I'm a pretty savvy traveler and make my own arrangements for trips, but I have been on a couple of group trips through dive shops in other states that worked out well. There are price breaks and extras on group trips that I cannot get on my own, such as airport transfers, included meals, free Nitrox. Sometimes the single penalty is far less and more manageable on my wallet than booking on my own.
Some places I know of already that does group trips:

So, if you have a trustworthy and reputable local dive shop that organizes group travel or a dive travel agency that organizes their own group trips, please throw out some names for me. I'd much appreciate it.
