Komodo Day Trip by Speedboat from Labuan Bajo

Komodo 8-Stop Day Trip with Sunset Cruise, Speedboat + Wooden Boat

One day in Komodo goes fast. Do not spend it queuing on a crowded boat, or go home without seeing a dragon.

Eight stops and a sunset in one day: a fast AC speedboat through the morning, then a traditional open-deck wooden boat for the slow sail to Kalong Island at dusk.

Komodo dragon guarantee

See a Komodo dragon, or we refund you

In mating season Komodo dragons often hide, and many groups go home without seeing one. Our local guides know where to find them. If you join one of our Komodo trips and do not see a Komodo dragon, we refund you.

The refund terms are confirmed in writing when you book.

Why choose this tour

This is the longest and fullest Komodo day trip we run. The morning is spent on an air-conditioned speedboat to reach the far side of the park quickly: Padar, Pink Beach, Komodo Island, the Taka Makassar sandbar, Manjarite and Manta Point.

In the afternoon guests switch at Kelor Island to a traditional wooden open-deck boat with bean bags. The pace slows down for the sail to Kalong Island, where thousands of flying foxes leave the mangroves at sunset.

Lunch is cooked on board, with vegetarian, vegan, halal or gluten-free options on request.
