Highlights

  • Rangko Cave at midday, when sunlight turns its saltwater pool bright turquoise
  • Photo in traditional Manggarai costume at Melo village
  • Batu Cermin, the mirror cave with coral fossils in the rock
  • Sunset at Sylvia Hill over Labuan Bajo bay
  • Dinner at the Kampung Ujung night market, at the stall guests choose

Why choose this tour

Almost every visitor to Labuan Bajo spends their days on the water; few go inland. This tour shows the Flores where people live: caves, villages, hills and the town's night market.

The day starts at 09:00 with Batu Cermin cave, then a drive and a short local-boat crossing to Rangko Cave, timed for the hour when light reaches the chamber and the pool glows turquoise. After lunch in town guests continue to Melo village in the hills for a photo in traditional costume, then to Sylvia Hill for sunset, a stop for Flores tenun weaving and the Kampung Ujung night market.

Every entrance fee is included. Lunch and dinner are deliberately left open so guests can choose their own restaurant and night-market stall.
