The hotel provides pier pickup and drop-off. Departure is at 7:30 AM and return to the hotel is around 4:30 PM. We visited six attractions. The boat is a bit smaller than it appears in the photos, probably due to the angle of the shot. It fits six people comfortably, but eight might be a bit crowded. The waves were high at sea, so for safety, we asked the boat driver for life jackets in advance, but we were refused. The toilet on the boat was also broken. On the plus side, the boat driver found a great manta ray diving spot, and we saw four very large ones, but we were only allowed to watch for a short time before being asked to get back on the boat.

Leaving this review for every Chinese tourist who loves to enjoy and save money! As this private tour came to an end, standing on the pier, my tired mother said: "The experience today was truly intense." Being able to charter a boat with my parents, who are in their 70s, hike to the top of Padar Island together, and visit an almost deserted pink beach on the advice of our guide Andro, is a memory I will cherish for a lifetime. The fruit on board helped us replenish our energy, the brand new cushions allowed my father to lie down and rest comfortably, and Andro taking family photos for us at every attraction were all private services that exceeded my expectations. At the beach, my mother exclaimed that it was the clearest water she had ever seen in Indonesia. My father's first snorkeling experience made him as excited as a 17-year-old. Komodo dragons, baby sharks, coral, and sea turtles are all etched in our memories. When we went snorkeling at Manta Point, Andro went into the sea first to search, and after confirming the area where the manta rays were, he had the boat take my parents nearby, then used a lifebuoy to pull my mother to the area where the manta rays were feeding, and then held my father's hand, who was wearing a life jacket, to watch five black and white creatures circle and play in the sea. Seeing my father's red life jacket floating in the sea for a long time, I felt his joy and shock at seeing the free ocean giants. If you are traveling with 3 people, paying this fee may be more than double that of a large group, but the care and attention you receive is something you cannot experience on a hot, noisy, and unfamiliar large group tour (I have also participated in large group tours). But if you are traveling with 6 people, no matter how you look at it, this kind of chartered boat trip is the most cost-effective. A project with hundreds of reviews and a score of 4.8 is definitely worth it.

We had a really fun trip and overall a great experience from start to finish. The boat was smaller since it was a small group, but it was comfortable, safe, and well organized. The guide and staff were very helpful, especially when assisting everyone in and out of the boat. Just a heads-up: in the morning the tide is low, so you do have to step or jump out into knee-length water, so flowy dresses are not ideal. All of the activities were great. The hike to the viewpoint had a lot of stairs but was manageable and took about an hour. Pink Beach was nice, though not as pink as Instagram photos, which is good to know ahead of time. Komodo Island was a highlight, and we were lucky to see Komodo dragons, including one walking around. Lunch was very good with plenty of food and vegetarian options. We saw manta rays and turtles, with better visibility at Turtle Point. Everything went smoothly. Just note the Komodo Island entrance fee must be paid in cash. Overall highly recommended for trip!

It was great to leave earlier than other teams and enjoy all the spots in peace. It seems like you prepared a lot to ensure everything went smoothly. The guide was excellent, and the lunch was good too. Thank you for the carefully prepared drinks and snacks.

What a wonderful trip! I have no complaints—everything was perfect: timely pick-up, friendly staff, and a comfortable boat, along with all the beautiful locations and fantastic weather. We set out early for the boat, allowing us to be among the first to arrive at each location, which meant we enjoyed less crowded spots before the others arrived. I was a bit concerned about the lunch box based on previous comments, but it turned out to be quite good. I had the chicken, and it was delicious! I highly recommend this tour!
