As Komodo National Park now limits visitors to 1,000 people per day, entry slots are limited and fill quickly. To secure your visit, we will pre-book your entry using our own funds, with a total park fee of IDR 450,000 per person (IDR 250,000 SIORA fee reimbursed upon arrival and IDR 200,000 ranger fee paid in cash on arrival). We will first request your approval, and once confirmed, proceed with the booking. Please note that while our tour is free to cancel up to 24 hours before departure, the SIORA ticket is non-refundable and must still be reimbursed once booked, except in cases of bad weather where the Harbor Master does not allow sailing to the park.
If you are catching an afternoon flight after the tour, please bring your luggage with you and store it in the shuttle car. The same car will take you straight to the airport once the tour ends.
Guests planning to bring a drone to Komodo National Park must inform us at least 5 days in advance, hold a valid drone flying certification, and obtain a permit costing 2.5 million rupiah, which we must pay upfront and can be reimbursed upon your arrival. Please let us know if you’d like our assistance.
All departures are subject to approval from the Harbor Master. Weather conditions such as rain alone do not determine cancellation. As long as the Harbor Master confirms that conditions are safe and grants permission to sail, the tour will proceed as scheduled. However, if conditions are deemed unsafe and permission is not granted, the tour will be cancelled and a full refund will be provided.
Cancellation Policy
All sales are final. No refund is available for cancellations.

Magical Islands, Beaches and Wildlife

5.00Smooth boating, scenic trekking, dragons, manta rays, turtles, reefs and beaches--all as advertised, but even more magical than they appear in photos. Efficient organization by Ervis, informative guiding by Stan and safe, comfortable boating by captain and crew--all exceeding expectations. This was a great way to experience the highlights of Komodo National Park in a single day without feeling rushed. Each stop was a highlight, but the boat travel between stops was also wonderful as we passed between the scenic islands. We were pleased to be on a private tour to allow us to trek/snorkel at our own pace with our guide. We went a bit faster/slower at some stops to minimize overlap with the biggest crowds. With only the two of us, we were on a smaller boat, but it was just as fast as most of the bigger boats.
Exceptional team creating amazing memories of Labuan Bajo

5.00This was one of the most amazing experiences we had in Indonesia. Komodo, dragons, snorkeling directly above manta rays and turtles as well as the fantastic coral and colourful fish. It was amazing. Ervis and his team were exceptional for myself and the family. Knew how to avoid crowds. Stopped the boat and showed us pods of dolphins along the way. The food and drinks were really appreciated and high quality. The boat itself was so comfortable and fast that we got to do everything we wanted within one full day. The attentive nature of his team towards the kids to help them improve their snorkeling was see really appreciated. I couldn't recommend this enough and it was a highlight for both the kids and us. You will not regret going with them. Enjoy!
Amazing Day! 100% recommend!

5.00Absolutely wonderful day!! Ervis was great at communication for planning/questions. Our tour guide, Beni, was phenomenal. The boat crew made sure the trip was safe and worked hard to make sure we had an enjoyable experience. Everyone was committed to making sure we enjoyed our day to the max. I’m so grateful we chose this tour because we were able to stay as long at spots as we wanted to. Beni was also great at accommodating us when we needed extra help with something. And yes, we saw all the wildlife we could dream of (I know they can’t guarantee anything and we got really lucky): 2 deer, 12 Komodo dragons, 4-5 mantra rays, and 3 turtles. The reefs are also beautiful. Beni helped us take beautiful pictures at Padar and was such an exceptional guide.
Great trip with young kids

5.00Brilliant day out on the boat. We went with my family and my sisters family, so kids who were 1, 3, 5 and 7 and had a great time. The private boat meant that we could be longer at some spots and shorter at others. The guides and operators were super helpful with the little ones. I would highly recommend.
Unforgettable experience

5.00We booked this early bird tour, and everything was perfectly organized. We had a fantastic day and will never forget such adventures. We swam with manta rays and saw several Komodo dragons. If you want an unforgettable experience, don't hesitate to book this tour with this organization.
What’s wonderful day!

5.00We had a fantastic day. We started early and were one of the first boats at Padar. After hiking to the top of the island we went to visit the dragons at Komodo Island. What amazing animals. I was surprised by how close you can get to them. Then we went snorkeling where we saw manta ray and several sea turtles as well as an array of beautiful fish. Benny was a fantastic guide!! At all times communication was excellent prior to our trip. Can’t say enough good things!
Definitely recommended.

5.00For a fast personal custom experience definitely recommended. Early morning on time departure and hike to avoid heat of day. 7 dragons ranger and not pushing stupid photos and working around large groups. Custom snorkel options if desired.
Top service!

A Truly Amazing Day

5.00What a fantastic day! From before the start, to the drp off, this was one of the best tours we've had. We contacted Ervis at Komodo Snorkel directly by WhatsApp. Communication was very prompt with lots of information. We opted for a private day trip on a Medium size boat, perfect for three of us and meant transit times were fast. Ervis came to our hotel to brief our trip, provide options and take payment. Payment was easy, and was all inclusive (apart from tips). We opted to go early and it was well worth it. We beat the crowds to Padar and walked up to the viewpoint as the 'Sunrisers' were coming down. Alousius was our guide, and he was great. His English was perfect and knew everything we needed to know about the landscape, culture, flora and fauna. We opted for the long trek at Komodo, our ranger was Ivan, who again was great. The long trek gave us plenty of opportunity to see the dragons (6 in total), some of them very close. We also went to Kampung Komodo before heading off to Pink Beach, then the sand bar, Manta point and Turtle town. We swam with mantas, tutles and sharks. A truly amazing life experience. Thank you very much Ervis and the Komodo Snorkel team. My family and I would thoroughly recommend Komodo Snorkel to give you one of the most memorable experiences ever.
