Born on Komodo Island
Akbar was born and raised on Komodo Island, inside the national park. The boat crews, rangers and guides you meet on our trips are people he has known since childhood. That is why we can confirm boats by name, find the dragons in every season, and solve problems on the water quickly.
Arah Pesona Trip is registered as PT Arah Pesona Indonesia. We are not a reseller in another city that passes your booking to a third party; the team that answers your WhatsApp is the team that runs your trip.
A real office you can visit
Our office is at Kampung Air, Jl. Soekarno Hatta, Labuan Bajo, West Manggarai, East Nusa Tenggara. You are welcome to drop in before you book, meet the team, look at the boat photos and ask anything.
Because we are here in person, eligible trips can be reserved with no deposit and paid on arrival. Where a trip needs a deposit, we tell you in writing before you reserve.
How we work
You send your dates and group size on WhatsApp or email. We confirm the boat, cabin, inclusions, price and payment terms in writing before you commit. Pick-up is confirmed the day before, and a local team member stays reachable throughout your trip.
More than 10,000 guests have travelled with us, including families, honeymooners and corporate groups. Our rating is 4.9 from 596 Google reviews and 4.8 on Tripadvisor.
Our promise
See a Komodo dragon or we refund you. The boat you book is the boat you sail. Park tickets and documentation are included on most packages, and the price you are quoted is the price you pay.
