Award-Winning Fleet & Crew
Our fleet of traditional phinisi sailing vessels and modern speedboats represents the finest maritime craftsmanship in Indonesia. Each phinisi is built by master shipwrights in South Sulawesi using centuries-old techniques combined with modern safety systems, GPS navigation, satellite communication, and marine-grade life-saving equipment. Onboard, you will find air-conditioned cabins with en-suite bathrooms, sundeck lounges, and professional dining areas where our trained chefs prepare five-star cuisine using fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
Every Komodo Trip crew member holds current safety certifications, first aid training, and specialized Komodo National Park guide licenses. Our marine biologists can identify over 1,000 species of fish found in the Flores Sea and provide expert commentary during snorkeling and diving sessions at sites like Manta Point, Batu Bolong, Crystal Rock, and the coral gardens surrounding Kanawa Island.

Unlike many competitors who advertise low base prices then add surcharges for park fees, meals, equipment, and transfers, every Komodo Trip package is genuinely all-inclusive. Your booking covers Komodo National Park entrance fees, licensed ranger guides, all meals and beverages, snorkeling and diving equipment, hotel or airport transfers in Labuan Bajo, and comprehensive travel insurance. The price you see is the price you pay — we believe transparency builds trust.
Our pricing starts from just $150 per person per day for shared trips, scaling to premium private charters that offer complete customization of your itinerary, menu, and schedule.
