Check Lamborajo Dates Private Charter OptionsQuick Answer
Lamborajo is a fleet of three traditional phinisi liveaboards — Lamborajo I, II and III — sailing Komodo National Park from Labuan Bajo. Open-trip cabins start from $220 per person for 3D2N; private charters run from $3,000 per full day. Komodo Trip checks live availability on all three boats through our booking desk.
Few boats in Labuan Bajo get requested by name as often as the Lamborajo phinisi fleet. “Lamborajo” is not a single vessel but a brand of three ironwood-and-teak phinisi — Lamborajo I, II and III — cruising Komodo National Park at 7–10 knots on the classic Padar–Komodo–Manta Point circuit. Our booking desk at Labuan Bajo Harbor arranges all three, so this page gives you the honest picture: verified specs, real 2026 rates, and where the listings disagree.
Who suits Lamborajo? Groups and celebrations, mostly. Karaoke sets, Bluetooth sound systems, big sundecks with bean bags, and on-deck jacuzzis (Lamborajo II and III) make these boats a favourite for birthday charters, office trips and extended families. Budget-minded couples take the Superior cabins on open trips instead — at $220–330 per person for 3D2N they sit well below the mid-market Komodo liveaboard average of $350–600.
Lamborajo Phinisi Fleet at a Glance
| Vessel | Length | Cabins | Capacity | Cruising speed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lamborajo I | 26–35 m (listings vary) | 5–6 (listings vary) | Up to 20 guests | 7–10 knots |
| Lamborajo II | 32–38 m (listings vary) | 8 | Up to 25 guests | 7–10 knots |
| Lamborajo III | 38 m × 6.8 m | 8 | 22 guests | 7–10 knots |
Two honesty notes. First, published lengths for Lamborajo I and II differ between the fleet’s own site and agency listings, so we quote the range rather than pick a number. Second, no source publishes a build year for any of the three hulls — if vessel age matters to you, ask our desk and we will confirm directly with the fleet before you pay anything.
Cabin Classes on Each Boat
Lamborajo II carries eight cabins in three classes: two Master Ocean View, one Family Ocean View and five Superior, all air-conditioned with private ensuite bathrooms. Lamborajo III also runs eight cabins, graded Royal Master, Master Ocean and Superior — the Royal Master is the one honeymooners ask for. Lamborajo I is the simplest of the three, mixing master and shared cabins (agency listings disagree on the exact count, so treat it as five to six). On open trips your price is set by cabin class; on private charter you take the whole boat and allocate cabins yourself.
Facilities Onboard
Deck Life
Large sundeck with bean bags, indoor and outdoor dining areas, and an on-deck jacuzzi on Lamborajo II and III — the spot everyone claims after the Padar climb.
Sound & Celebration
Karaoke set and Bluetooth sound system fleet-wide, plus a bar/minibar on Lamborajo III. This is why event groups book these boats for full-day parties.
In the Water
Snorkeling gear and beach towels included; Lamborajo II adds a kayak and a banana boat, Lamborajo III a stand-up paddleboard. Note: no scuba program is advertised — this is a snorkeling fleet.
Safety & Navigation
Life jackets, life raft, ring buoy, fire extinguishers and first aid on all boats; GPS, VHF radio and compass at the helm, with a tender boat for beach landings.
Trip Types: Open Trip, Private Charter, Events
All three boats sell the same three formats. Open trips are per-person, priced by cabin class with a two-guest minimum — the standard entry into a shared Komodo boat trip without chartering a whole vessel. Private charters run Full Day, 2D1N, 3D2N and 4D3N; if you want the whole deck to yourselves, compare the fleet against other vessels on our private charter Komodo page before committing. Third, day events: Lamborajo II takes up to 50 guests on a full-day sailing and Lamborajo III up to 48 — the largest single-boat day capacity we arrange out of Labuan Bajo.
Sample 3D2N Itinerary
Day 1 — Kelor, Manjarite, Kalong
Board at Labuan Bajo Harbor late morning, then a short hop to Kelor Island for the first ridge walk and swim. Afternoon snorkeling at Manjarite’s jetty corals, then the boat anchors off Kalong Island for sunset — around 6 PM, thousands of flying foxes leave the mangroves in a stream that lasts twenty minutes.
Day 2 — Padar, Pink Beach, Komodo, Taka Makassar, Manta Point
The big day starts dark: we time the Padar trek for a 5:15 AM start so you summit before the heat and the crowds. Then Pink Beach for a swim, a ranger-led dragon trek on Komodo Island, the Taka Makassar sandbar, and drift-snorkeling with mantas at Karang Makassar before the boat turns north.
Day 3 — Siaba, Sebayur, return
Morning snorkel stops at Siaba (a regular turtle spot) and Sebayur, then the cruise back to Labuan Bajo. On 4D3N departures the fleet adds Rangko Cave, Seraya and Sabolo or Bidadari islands. Book onward flights for the evening, not midday.
Lamborajo Phinisi Price List 2026
| Vessel | Open trip 3D2N (per person) | Full Day (private) | 3D2N (private) | 4D3N (private) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lamborajo I | from $220–290 | from $3,000 | $3,700–4,000 | $4,100–4,400 |
| Lamborajo II | from $330–460 | from $4,450 | $6,550–7,750 | $7,600–9,250 |
| Lamborajo III | from $360–670 | from $5,800 | $8,650–9,850 | $9,650–11,300 |
These are the fleet’s own published 2026 figures; Lamborajo II also lists 2D1N private charters at $5,800–6,900, and local agencies quote Lamborajo I from roughly IDR 28–48 million per private trip. On Lamborajo II open trips the class split is Superior $330, Family Ocean View $440, Master Ocean View $460 per person. Some resellers quote well above this — one lists Lamborajo III from $6,972 per night plus 12% VAT — which is why we always price from the fleet’s official sheet.
Budget park fees on top for every guest: Komodo National Park entry is IDR 250,000 (about $16) per person per day, ranger trekking IDR 200,000 per group of up to five (IDR 150,000 on Padar), plus IDR 25,000 harbor fee — plan $40–50 per person across a 3D2N. Since April 2026 the park caps Komodo–Padar at 1,000 visitors per day through the SiOra reservation system, so peak-season dates genuinely sell out.

Book Now WhatsApp UsHow to Book Lamborajo Through Komodo Trip
We are a booking desk, not the boat owner, and we say so plainly: Komodo Trip — operated by Komodo Luxury since 2015 — arranges Lamborajo I, II and III through our desk at Labuan Bajo Harbor. In practice that means we confirm real cabin availability with the fleet before you commit, match the boat to your group size and budget, lock in the official price list rather than reseller markups, and handle your SiOra park reservation so the 1,000-visitor cap does not catch you out. Message us on WhatsApp at +62 811 3823 875 with dates and headcount, or start from the booking page and we take it from there.
Lamborajo vs Its Sister Boats
Against the other vessels we arrange, Lamborajo’s edge is range within one brand: a $220 open-trip berth on Lamborajo I and a Royal Master suite on Lamborajo III sit under the same flag, with the biggest day-event capacity in our roster. Magika, by contrast, is a newer nine-cabin build with a bathtub master suite and a published dive program — the better pick for divers, since Lamborajo advertises none. Browse every vessel side by side on our boats page to compare cabins and rates before you decide.
