Labuan Bajo

The tour is well organized, the guys are very experienced, helpful, and friendly. They also provide hotel pick-up and drop-off at the end of the tour. You're among the first to arrive at the various spots, which means you won't be surrounded by crowds. The snorkeling is well organized, they provide everything you need: life jacket, mask, fins, and even an underwater phone case. For those who don't feel like swimming alone, a float is provided, towed by one of the guys, who will take you around. At the end of the snorkeling, they serve a delicious hot cappuccino to warm you up. The only downside is that you have little time at the various spots, they're rather hasty. I recommend it.

Deixo este comentário para todos os turistas chineses que adoram desfrutar e poupar dinheiro! Ao final desta viagem privada, enquanto estávamos no cais, minha mãe, já cansada, disse: “A experiência de hoje foi realmente intensa.” Poder fretar um barco com meus pais, ambos com mais de 70 anos, caminhar juntos até o topo da montanha Padar e, seguindo a sugestão do guia Andro, chegar a uma praia de areia rosa quase deserta, já são momentos inesquecíveis para mim. As frutas no barco nos ajudaram a repor as energias, as almofadas novas permitiram que meu pai descansasse confortavelmente, e as fotos de família que Andro tirou em cada atração são exemplos do serviço privado que superou minhas expectativas. Na praia, minha mãe exclamou que era a água mais clara que ela já tinha visto na Indonésia. A primeira experiência de snorkel do meu pai o deixou tão animado quanto um jovem de 17 anos. Dragões de Komodo, pequenos tubarões, corais e tartarugas marinhas ficaram gravados em nossas memórias. Ao fazer snorkel no ponto das arraias-manta, Andro entrou primeiro na água para procurá-las e, após confirmar a área onde elas estavam, levou o barco com meus pais para perto. Em seguida, ele puxou minha mãe com uma boia até a área onde as arraias-manta estavam se alimentando e depois segurou a mão do meu pai, que usava um colete salva-vidas, para que ele pudesse observar cinco grandes criaturas pretas e brancas nadando em círculos. Vendo o colete salva-vidas vermelho do meu pai flutuando na água por um longo tempo, senti a alegria e o choque que ele experimentou ao ver os gigantes marinhos livres diante de seus olhos. Se você viajar em três pessoas, o custo pode ser mais do que o dobro de um grupo grande, mas o cuidado e a atenção recebidos são algo que um grupo grande (do qual também já participei), abafado, barulhento e com estranhos, não pode oferecer. No entanto, se você viajar em seis pessoas, esta viagem de barco fretado é a opção mais econômica, de qualquer ângulo que se olhe. Um passeio com centenas de avaliações e uma pontuação de 4.8 é definitivamente uma escolha sem erro.

Overall the 3D2N liveaboard in Leticia was above expectation with friendly and attentive crews. Food was delicious and lots of varieties. Photographer always ready to capture the best photos and drone shot was fantastic. The only drawback was no hot water in the shower.

There weren't many reviews for this tour, so at first, I wasn't sure if it would be good or bad. But after completing it, I can say it was a very worthwhile experience! 👍 The driver took us from the hotel to the pier, about a 40-minute drive, then we took a boat to Flying Fox Island. The sunset was absolutely beautiful! When the bats flew out, it was incredibly impressive! You can also go to the top deck of the boat to enjoy an unobstructed view. 😆 However, not wearing a life vest was a bit scary. Also, when getting on and off the boat, the height was quite significant, requiring a jump or using a pontoon to disembark. 😂 I suggest improving this part for better safety.

a hidden gem in Labuan Bajo, very special experience to swim inside a cave, also experienced the chill time in floating island. the trip is well organized from hotel pick up and return, thanks Pak Suwandi and his team.

It was a perfect experience, from airport pickup to boarding the boat and heading out to sea. We snorkeled and admired the exquisite underwater world, seeing various marine fish, sea turtles, starfish, and small sharks. After watching the sunset, we were incredibly impressed by thousands of bats flying into the sky. After disembarking, we were taken to our hotel. The service from East Cruise was simply perfect; the front desk staff, tour guides, captain, lifeguards, and transfer drivers were all warm and attentive. Their kind smiles and skilled service left a deep impression on us.

A very adventurous trip! We saw and experienced a lot. Additionally, the ship's captain was highly professional and a good role model for the younger crew. We saw all the animals one could hope to see on the journey, and the weather was consistently good. A truly fortunate trip!

Komodo National Park had great scenery and a good program. The guide was friendly and I had a fun time. However, the toilet in the room was broken and in poor condition, which was inconvenient. It would be better if you could improve it.

Boat Condition: The boat was in excellent condition! It was clean, safe, and there were no areas where one could get hurt. Oh! On days with choppy waves, I thought it would be great to have seatbelts, as there was a concern of falling off the chair even when sitting still at high speeds. :) Guide: Yoga briefed us on the tour itinerary and explained the rules to ensure safety and protect the tour sites. With a lively and positive vibe, he took great photos at each tour spot and naturally led conversations. During snorkeling, he guided my wife and me, who are not accustomed to swimming in the sea, by holding onto a life tube, allowing us to see beautiful corals, fish, turtles, and even sharks! I would definitely recommend him to friends planning a trip to Labuan Bajo! Itinerary: We visited Padar Island, Pink Beach, and Komodo National Park, then had lunch, stopped at a beautiful beach, and went snorkeling at Manta Point and Reef Point. The tour started at 6 AM and ended around 3:30-4 PM, which felt just right. :) Safety: We didn't have major concerns thanks to the professional boat driver and staff. However, it was a particularly windy day with rougher waves than usual. Although I don't usually get seasick, I felt a bit unwell today. Even if you don't typically experience seasickness, it would be wise to bring motion sickness medication.
