Places to research
Use these as a shortlist for your research. Final stops depend on available time, local transport, access permissions and conditions.
- A ranger-led wildlife visit where permitted
- Padar viewpoint if access and fitness suit the group
- A captain-selected beach and reef stop
Before you commit
Park access, fees and site conditions need current confirmation. Follow ranger instructions on land and qualified dive guidance in the water.
Build the budget
Compare staying in Labuan Bajo with an overnight boat trip. Count accommodation, meals, park fees, guides and diving separately. Do not apply Singapore day-boat trip prices to Komodo.
Choose your travel style
Choose one main priority: time outdoors, local food, cultural visits or fewer transfers. Build the daily routine around it. Keep an alternative stop in the plan and confirm transport and activity arrangements before you travel.
