Choosing a trip

Which Komodo Trip Suits You?

Komodo National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is known for its dragons, rich marine life and dramatic island views. Most trips leave from Labuan Bajo and spend two to nine days aboard a boat.

Budget tours use shared boats with deck or basic cabins and local meals. Luxury trips move to phinisi yachts with en-suite cabins, gourmet dining, dive masters and private chefs — or a whole vessel to yourself.

  • Komodo and Rinca dragons
  • Padar Island viewpoint
  • Pink Beach snorkelling
  • Manta and reef dive sites
