Labuan Bajo Island Hopping & Sunset Snorkeling With Open Deck Boat

guide is very proactive, he explained everything we saw from the boat. he also actively offering for taking us pictures, and recommending which spot is the best and most interesting. there are so many baby sharks in kelor island, it is recommended to swim there. but in Manjarite Beach, I prefer to take picture of the beach only because the beach was very beautiful and exotic. I saw stingray in this beach, so I enjoyed seeing it. after that, were so lucky!! we met dolphin on the way to kalong island! the sunset is beautiful, the flying foxes even more beautiful!

The boat was cozy enough to sleep on. It was cloudy, so we didn’t catch the sunset, but we did see thousands of bats flying together, forming a living bridge in the sky. The night sky was stunning too—so many stars that we could easily make out the Orion constellation.

The trip started off a bit rough due to the weather, but once we got used to the slow boat's pace, it was alright. The places we were brought to are beautiful, and our guide is earnest and energetic, always trying his best to make our days, motivating us to make the hike up Kelor Island. Watching the fruit bats gliding across the sunset on the roof of the boat, it feel like once-in-a-lifetime kind of beautiful. We spent the 1-hr return trip on the roof of the boat, looking at stars, definitely worth it.

It was a nice tour. Super relaxing and worth it. Our guide Eva and Renal are very friendly and kind. They assist us from the start until the end of tour. Highly recommended.

The tour was great. Absolutely lovely guides. it was a fun trip. The only disappointment was witnessing one of the passengers continually throwing cigarette butts into the water and unbelievably a whole empty packet of cigarettes! There needs to be an instruction when boarding to not throw trash into the sea.

It was a negative experience. Driver was over 20mins late. Found out the company also told the group from another hotel that they'll be picked up at the same time by the same driver but it wasn't possible as driver can't be two places at once. Driver attitude was not great. On the wooden boat, we were hosted by lady guide but she was inexperienced and couldn't understand basic questions asked in English. She even got confused about who was supposed to be on the boat after our Kelor Island. Ride on the boat felt risky, esp when waters were choppier. Snorkeling gear wasn't well maintained. Some guests found out the gear handed to them was broken. Imagine if they were already in the water. Boarding the boat after Manjerite Beach was dangerous too. Guide and boat staff expected guests to step up a narrow wooden railing to board. One guest got his toe caught between the boat and the railing. Some guests were reluctant to follow the instructions. It was messy, not well organised and unsafe.
