What To Expect
Labuan Bajo
Our pick-up service begins at 5:30 AM, depending on your hotel’s location. Simply wait in your hotel lobby, and we’ll ensure a smooth transfer to the harbor for the check-in process. Once the formalities are complete, you’ll board one of our speedboats, which departs promptly before 6:00 AM from Labuan Bajo. Depending on bookings, we offer three speedboat options tailored to group sizes: a large speedboat for up to 17 passengers, a medium speedboat for up to 14 passengers, and a small speedboat for up to 7 passengers. In total, we can accommodate up to 38 guests daily and even with just one booking, our boat will depart as scheduled.
Padar Island
From your hotel, we’ll head directly to the harbor to board our speedboat and set off on a day filled with discovery and wonder. It takes approximately 60 minutes by speedboat from Labuan Bajo to reach our first destination, the iconic Padar Island. Renowned for its dramatic landscapes and unique trio of colored beaches—white, pink, and black—Padar is a feast for the senses. As we approach, you’ll be captivated by the island’s rugged hills and stunning vistas. The hike to the top is moderately challenging, but the panoramic views awaiting you are more than worth the effort. This is the perfect spot to trek, capture breathtaking photos, and immerse yourself in the island’s natural beauty.

5.00Awesome experience out on a boat to explore the Komodo archipelago! I booked this trip because of the reviews and agree with everything that was said. Incredible service, and safety first. Traveling with 2 kids this was very important to me. This tour exceeded my expectation. For the trip itself be prepared for incredible views, a pink beach that is actually pink (!!), Komodo dragons, turtles and if you're lucky baby black tip sharks. It is not the manta ray season so we didn't see any but the reef, corals and fishes were plenty to look at!
Superb Trip - Strongly Recommend

5.00An excellent trip. Everything was perfect. Pickup and boarding were very efficient. The boat was modern, well equipped, and maintained, comfortable and very clean. Our guide was first rate. He spoke excellent English, gave clear briefings on what to expect at every stage, knowledgeable explanations and good safety briefings. The island visits and stops were well organised. We had great dragon sightings on Komodo. A nice packed lunch was included - eaten in comfort at a cafe on Komodo. We also appreciated the ready availability of free bottled water (and soft drinks) throughout the trip. Snorkelling was excellent with good spotting by the guide and crew, good quality gear supplied and again excellent attention to client safety.
Very good tour! Guide was...
