Overall great experience! - Aside from the tardiness of hotel pickup (should be picked up at 6:20am, instead got picked up at 7am), this trip was a blast! The boat crews were professional, there's a slight complaint about the gasoline smell, but I guess that's normal with this kind of speed boat. The tour guide, Fransisco, was awesome. He went above and beyond to ensure we have everything we need, and he made sure that we got the best experience. We were very lucky to see 3 komodos (1 male, 1 female, 1 baby komodo). We weren't lucky enough to see manta ray, but we saw 3 turtles. Overall, I would recommend this trip.

A “must do” experience and one I’ll never forget - Fantastic day. The climb on Padar Island was harder than expected (800 steps) but the views were worth it but wear shoes not sandals/slides. The pink beach and snorkeling was fantastic and we were lucky enough to see 2 Komodo dragons and a baby dragon. The staff were very friendly and helpful and I would highly recommend to them.

Amazing day and snorkeling - We had an amazing day. We say Komodo, pink sand, hiked for great views, and had amazing snorkeling. The staff was so kind and our tour guide Fían was great. We weren’t lucky enough to see Manta ray. I wish we could have snorkeled in the spots a little more instead of moving to the last island Kiwawa.

Labuan Bajo Best - Highly recommended!! Our family had a blast. The boat crew was very friendly and helpful. The tour guide, Gusti, was knowledgeable about the destinations and spoke decent English. Will definitely book services from them again.

An incredible day. - I honestly was a bit worried about how this day would turn out after reading reviews of other tours and companies, but WOW this was an incredible experience! The boat was very comfortable, the team wonderful and the destinations- well absolutely stunning! It was a fully packed day of adventure, and definitely everything in the right order, with a hike up Padar island in the early morning, then the pink beach to cool off, Komodo island to see some dragons (we were so lucky we saw the biggest one!) and after a DELICIOUS lunch (they had everything in Tupperware bento boxes instead of plastic which I really appreciate) we got to snorkel. Our tour guides were super friendly and attentive. Thank you Gusti and team for an incredible day!

Great value trip - Overall this was a really great trip. It was on a small boat, with 4 crew and a captain. There were 10 customers, so it was a bit squeezy. The small boat meant we were able to access stops and leave more easily. There was adequate time at all six destinations and plenty of opportunity for swimming or snorkeling. The snorkeling was superb. The hike up Pandar was straightforward but very crowded. Spectacular views. The small group was great for Komodo island, it meant we were more agile and saw 3 Komodo’s. There were some VERY large groups of 30 plus people, glad we weren’t in one of those, I doubt they saw a Komodo because of the group size. Lunch was tasty and delivered in plastic reusable bento boxes. Great idea as there is sooo much plastic garbage here in Indo! Plenty of water and soft drinks provided as part of the trip fee. Toilet is small, so best you are changed ready for swimming before boarding. If not, you can change at Pink Beach. Like a lot of things in this part of the world, managing safety risk is pretty loose. So take responsibility for yourself, useful to have a small first kit with you and be a good swimmer. If not, then be cautious and ask for a life vest as there is current at most dive stops. The snorkeling was the best bit, astoundingly good coral, plentiful fish and turtles in clear water, amazing. No mantas this time. Don’t be shocked by the huge number of people and boats. This was a really good value for money trip, the guide Gusti spoke passable English and the rest of the crew were friendly and helpful. It was one of the cheaper trips available and it didn’t disappoint.

Labuan Bajo and Komodo adventure - This is a physically demanding tour, but well worth it. You will get to see the surrounding islands, and snorkel in 3 different places. Our guides were very knowledgeable and able to find elusive Mantas and turtles. Like any boat full of tourists, there were a few mishaps like people jumping on each other when entering the ocean to snorkel, but they did have plenty of help on the boat (which I appreciated) to take care of anything that came up. Great meals and snacks too.

2.5 for leaving without us at Komodo island, 5 for itinerary - The itinerary was great. Hike to top of first island was challenging. Wish we had more time at the manta site or pink beach. The last stop was an island with a small beach and no amenities and no snorkeling. They threw some food into the water to make the fish swim over. Rundown/abandoned buildings. Need to find a better site for 6th stop. Our boat was the Ohana. Nice boat but very cramped. Felt like being on a bus all day. Tiny boat bathroom so no where to really change recommend wearing your swimsuit. Hard to get into the water at snorkeling sites trying to get 20+ people in on one small entry point from the boat. We’ve been on dozens of snorkel and dive trips which we love due to more space on dive boat or catamaran. A great trip if you want to see a lot in one day otherwise would recommend taking a snorkeling trip on a dive boat with much more space/room. The crew left us on the dock at Komodo island because we went to use the bathroom on way back to boat and they didn’t do a head count 😳 we waved and hollered and they came back but that shouldn’t have happened. The staff were all very nice but they didn’t apologize for leaving us. They seemed very uncomfortable in the water and several were not strong swimmers nor wearing fins. They wouldn’t be able to handle an emergency in the water. The snorkeling was very good at the first two snorkel sites but we didn’t see mantas. It’s wildlife after all so never guarantees.

Unprofessional, lies, and 4 hours of missed time - This was the worst excursion I’ve ever done. They were adamant about being on time for the car. We were on time and there was no car. We had to continuously call and message them the entire time. They would either ignore us or say they’re on the way when they were not. They finally came 40 minutes late. They dropped us off at the dock and we waited her another hour. Everyone was very aggravated because 1 the story of why we were leaving so late kept changing and 2 we were now missing over 2 hours or what we paid for. Then when we were at one location, they were very unprofessional and screaming at everyone to jump in the water. Someone jumped in and freaked out and had to get pulled back onto the boat. During this process, the person caught a wire in the propeller and oil was spilling everywhere. We were then stuck on the boat for 2 hours. They wouldn’t even let us jump in and enjoy the spot we were supposed to. When it was fixed they said we can have time for one spot but not the other 2. They did not ask us our opinion on which spot we wanted. Many of us were very disappointed they did not bring us to the manta rays. When I asked why we couldn’t go there since that’s what most of the people sitting near me wanted, he said bc we wouldn’t see any this time of year. When I looked online, it said this is the best time of year to swim with manta rays in this area. Yet another lie told to us. I understand accidents happen but it was the lack of professionalism that was upsetting. We never got any money back for missing 4 hours of our trip and the experience with the manta rays.
