Itinerary
Starting early in the morning from Labuan Bajo, we’ll pick you up directly from your hotel and take you to the harbor, where your adventure begins. From the jetty, you'll board a comfortable speed boat and head off to explore the natural wonders of Komodo National Park — with fewer crowds and more time to enjoy each destination.
Trekking on Padar Island is one of the highlights of any Komodo tour. After a short hike up the island’s rugged trail, you’ll be rewarded with one of the most iconic views in Indonesia — a stunning panorama of three curved bays with beaches in different colors: white, black, and pink. The trek takes about 20–30 minutes and is manageable for most fitness levels, especially with short breaks along the way. Sunrise or early morning is the best time to go, with cooler temperatures and soft golden light perfect for photos. Don’t forget your camera — this is one view you’ll want to remember!
Pink Beach isn’t just beautiful on the surface — the underwater world here is just as stunning. With clear, calm waters and vibrant coral gardens, it’s the perfect spot for snorkeling. You’ll swim among colorful reef fish, soft corals, and maybe even spot a turtle or two if you’re lucky. The pink sand, created by crushed red coral mixed with white sand, makes it a picture-perfect stop both above and below the water.
Trekking to see Komodo Dragon Get ready for a once-in-a-lifetime experience as you trek through the wild landscapes of Komodo or Rinca Island in search of the legendary Komodo dragons. Guided by local rangers, you’ll walk along marked trails while learning about the dragons’ behavior, habitat, and role in the ecosystem. Spotting one of these ancient creatures in their natural environment is both thrilling and unforgettable — a true highlight of your Komodo adventure. After the trek, we’ll enjoy a simple but delicious lunch, offering a chance to relax and refuel before continuing the day’s adventure!
Taka Makasar is a stunning sandbank surrounded by shallow, crystal-clear waters — perfect for a relaxing swim or snorkeling. The area is known for its gentle currents, soft white sand, and beautiful coral patches where you can spot colorful reef fish and sometimes even manta rays nearby. It’s a peaceful stop where you can float, snorkel, and enjoy the beauty of Komodo’s underwater world.
One of the most unforgettable moments of the trip — swimming alongside majestic manta rays! At spots like Manta Point, you’ll have the chance to snorkel in clear waters where these gentle giants often glide gracefully just below the surface. It’s a magical experience to see them up close in their natural habitat. Don’t worry — mantas are completely harmless, and our guides will help you spot them safely and respectfully.
Siaba Island, also known as "Turtle Point," is a prime location for snorkeling and swimming, especially for those eager to see sea turtles in their natural habitat. The underwater ecosystem around Siaba is teeming with marine life, including colorful fish, stunning coral reefs, and, of course, the graceful sea turtles that frequent the area. The island’s waters are calm and clear, providing excellent visibility for snorkeling, and the peaceful environment makes it a perfect place to swim and relax. Activities: Snorkeling, Swimming, Turtle Watching Highlight: Abundant marine life, sea turtles, and vibrant coral gardens
After an unforgettable day of adventure and exploration, we’ll head back to Labuan Bajo. You can relax and enjoy the scenic boat ride back to the harbor. We can also take you directly to the airport if you have a late afternoon flight or drop you back at your hotel — whichever is most convenient for you. Reflect on the incredible sights you've seen, and we look forward to welcoming you again on your next adventure!

It was really perfect. We visited all 6 spots. I'm glad that we were well informed and we all felt safe during the snorkeling and visiting the most dangerous lizards. I liked our small group consisting of 8 people. The experience was definitely worth the money. Sometimes you can find somewhere else a little bit cheaper trip, but I am glad we choose this company because our motto was: safety first. We also was the first group who visited the spots, so not many tourists around.
Excellent tour and staff. Very well organised with lots of variety and activities. We saw 5 komodo dragons, including a baby. Incredible snorkeling, multiple manta Rays and turtles. We had people on the tour who were not confident snorkeling or being in the water for an extended period of time. The staff were amazing with them. They pulled them through the water with a life ring and life jackets on. Everyone got to have a wonderful experience l. They catered for my gluten free, provided snacks and drinks. Highly recommend. One of the best tours ive been on and we are very well travelled.
One of the best day trips we have ever taken. Komodo national park is stunning and very diverse. You start with a short hike with an iconic view, then go to an absolutely beautiful pink sand beach, then Komodo walking safari to watch the dragons from up close. Then another unbelievably beautiful beach stop and 2 more breathtaking snorkelling spots. I can’t recommend this trip enough. The team also went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. The lunch was delicious too. 5 stars are not enough believe me. :)
We liked the tour because 1. Very well organized and efficient: none was late, we did not have to wait at any point of time 2. Very clear communication: what to take on a boat, what to expect for each part of the tour, and just being friendly and funny. 3. Guide provided information about Komodo dragons, history, etc 4. Managed crowds very well, which is a skill by itself
Amazing experience. EXTREMELY well organized. We saw and did so many things and were on a schedule, but honestly never felt really rushed. We saw sea turtles, manta rays, and one zillion types of fish. We hiked, we spent time at the top of Padar and took so many pictures. We saw many Komodo dragons of various sizes. And we were continuously offered water, coke, watermelon, snacks, lunch was delicious. I literally cannot say enough good about this tour. It's one of the best tours we've ever been on TBH. There is zero doubt in my mind that we would do this tour again. Tour guides were hilarious and fun, all the while keeping our safety and enjoyment at the forefront of their minds. Definitely book this tour it's worth every penny and more!
Such a nice day trip in Komodo! Everything was very well organized. Loved the early start because the first activity which is a hike is quite of a workout and the morning temperature really helped with that! In komodo we walked with a ranger and we spotted 7 komodos! Lunch was a boxed lunch and they were very nice in catering for also dietary requirements. Water, fruits and coke was also provided on the boat. The afternoon was mostly spent as sea snorkeling. The guide was very nice with beginner snorkelers and made everyone feel comfortable.
Amazing. Thanks Hugo and crew. Couldn't have asked for a better day. Dragons, baby dragons, Manta Rays, Turtles. Spectacular views and crystal clear waters. Would highly recommend
Outstanding experience. Guides and captain were amazing, everything was perfectly aligned and comfortable. Saw so much wildlife!
I would highly recommend Bintang Komodo Tours! The guides and the entire crew were excellent—friendly, professional and well organised. Most importantly, they always made our safety their top priority. We joined a full-day speedboat tour and visited some truly unforgettable places: Padar Island with its breathtaking views, the unique and gorgeous Pink Beach, Komodo Island, Taka Makassar, Manta Point and Kanawa Island. On Komodo Island, we were incredibly lucky to see nine Komodo dragons! We also stopped three times for snorkelling and saw several magnificent manta rays, sea turtles, beautiful coral reefs and countless colourful fish. It was an absolutely magical experience. We felt very safe in the water. The guides snorkelled with us and carried bright flotation rings, so they were always easy to spot and we could hold on to them whenever needed. They guided us through the best areas and helped us see the most beautiful marine life. The whole day was perfectly organised, from beginning to end. It was one of the highlights of our trip to Indonesia and an experience we will never forget. Thank you to the wonderful Bintang Komodo Tours team! Definitely 10/10!
Well organised tour with great guides. Started early in the morning, so we arrived with our speedboat to the spots well before the crowd came with their slower boats.
We found Bintang Komodo on the Internet looking for a particularly ethical wildlife tour. Our expectations were absolutely fulfilled. The guides were clear from start to finish, respected the rules of the park (such as the ban on snorkelling on some beaches, which is still violated by many) and swam with us while snorkelling. We were lucky enough to see so many Komodo dragons and many mantas, everything was perfect
Amazing experience, worth it, Fano excellent guide, also rest of the crew, proffesional, spot on time. All they said provided for. Need to follow their instructions prior to trip. Saw coral, nanta reis and turtles and baby sharks. Experience over Expectations
The trip was amazing, we had a smooth hotel pick up and departed early from Labuan Bajo. The destinations we visited during the trip were stunning - views, beaches, komodo dragons, manta rays, turtles, coral reefs. Special thanks to Hugo and his team. 100% recommend.

The tour was very well organized and the crew was amazingly attentive to all passengers. We were with a small kid and they were so carefull and always taking care of every each of us. The schedule was perfect and value for money very met. The trip was a memorable and i have to say breathtaking nature, coral riffs , see animals and beaches. Beautiful country! Thank you!
It was incredibly good! Thank you so much for the one of the most memorable day of our life 🥹
Super tour, best snorkeling spots, good English speak guide and nice group (only people of 30 years old, respectfull of nature and of others). Also the boat is good to protect yourself from the sun. Maybe just the food is not "incredible".
Day tour yesterday to komodo, i decided last min to travel to flores and only had 3 days i was worried that at day tour would be to rushed or too touristy but i'm so glad i did it. We did the early bird trip Bintang Komodo Tours leaving 5.30am when we arrived at padar all the liveaboard boats from sunrise were leaving and we were the first boat there so we pretty much had view to oursleves 1 hour to first stop and 10 mins to each spot in between,the tour was perfectly run hugo and sofian + rest of crew where great guides the trip was well organised not rushed and we saw everything Probably one of the best day tours i have done and ive been to 70 countries and worked in travel for 15 years Highly reccomend to anyone concerned about doing a day trip if you dont have time for liveaboard 100% worth it! ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks @bintangkomodotours
Incredible day from sunrise to crystal clear waters, Komodo dragons, turtles, coral reefs, snorkelling and manta rays. What a day. Thanks so much.
We had an amazing day with fabulous guides who were very informative and kept everyone safe. There were only 14 of us on our boat which was perfect and can’t recommend highly enough ❤️
So glad I booked this tour after reading positive reviews. Picked up from our hotel driven to the Jetty. Comfortable clean speedboat with small group of 14. Lovely Balinese crew. First stop hike on Padar challenging but well built stairs and plenty of stops. Absolutely stunning views, we beat the crowds and the heat. Highlight seeing two Komodo Dragons in the wild accompanied by a local Ranger. Incredible creatures. Swimming on pink beach and an incredible sandbar with crystal blue water and white sand. Plenty of water cold drinks and lunch provided. Highly recommend.
This was one of the highlights of my trip to Komodo island. I had so much fund we saw several komodo dragons park rangers took photos and videos of me fantastic and artisitic. The hike was amazingly rewarding with magnificent view. The snorkling was fantastic and the boar crew did all they can to make my trip comfortable, safe and exciting.
This was an incredible tour!! We got to see all the main attractions in komodo national park in one day. We saw 4 komodo dragons and swam with 3 manta rays! The guides were all super nice and very knowledgeable, and they made sure that we arrived in each location at a time when there weren’t way too many other people there. Overall it was an amazing day and I would highly recommend this tour!
The over all tour was very well organised, structured & well briefed with 4 staff hosting / guiding the group The boat wasn’t too crowded, around 14 of us The schedule was as advertised and they kept the boat neat, tidy and organised with plenty of water and coke available for you during the day We were lucky to see 2 komodos and on the third and final snorkel 9 manta rays all swimming together which was incredible Lunch was simple and the trip finished around 3.30pm Would recommend
Absolutely fantastic experience. We couldn’t imagine this tour could have been better. Pink beach, actually pink. Incredible drift snorkeling over healthy reef with thousands of fish and fifteen turtles! Best dragon experience A++++ Two large and one smaller dragon, plus wild boar, imperial pigeons, deer. Padar island higher than expected, views spectacular. Great guides, comfortable safe boat with cold drinks and excellent captain. Sand island swim a paradise with little reef sharks and starfish. Loved the entire day, very grateful for the memories made. Single Mum and son, perfect holiday for us.
What an awesome crew and amazing experience
This was such a great experience! It was extremely organized and we saw everything that we were hoping to see…beautiful scenery, Komodo Dragons, Manta Rays, Reef Sharks and so much more. The crew was so fun, helpful and informative. I would totally recommend this tour!
A dreamy tour guided by super proffessional staff lead by superman HUGO, who took care of any small detail to make our trip enjoyable and safe. The assistance we got from Hugo and team, in order to make this trip possible at our age 0f 83 is admirable and appreciated. BRAVO
Perfect tour with HUGO AND TEAM , very knowledgeable, good organzation, taking care and rendering assistance to all. A TRUE EXPERIENCE.
A previous review describes the day perfectly. Communication before the trip was good. We were promptly picked up. Hugo the guide and his team were very good. They were safety conscious. Hugo was good at pointing out things to see during the snorkelling trip. We were one of the first day trips on Padar island. (The liveaboarders were coming down.) We were lucky to see 4 dragons. The vegetarian lunch (the tempe was better than the fish) was good
The tour was great places were awesome but was not 11 hours as we paid for 11 hours, pick up 5:30 and dropped at 3pm. We could spend more time at the pink beach!! We had been in tours all asia and this is the only one that the guide was rude sometimes
I couldn’t go without leaving a review for this tour, it was incredible. Hugo was our guide for the day along with a great team and captain and they did everything to ensure the day was comfortable and memorable. We had 7 stops, which were paced perfectly, plenty of complimentary water and soft drinks throughout the day and we were lucky enough to see Komodo dragons and a manta ray. My biggest appreciation was for how safety was the teams highest priority when snorkelling, especially when it didn’t seem important to other boats in the area. Thank you Hugo and team for an unforgettable day.
Wonderful guides and service, definitely arrived before the crowds. Snorkeling in the first half of the day was amazing, became difficult in the afternoon with the change in weather. Seeing the Komodo dragons was a highlight.
A tour you cannot miss! Absolutely breathtaking! Padar, pink sand beach, Komodo, snorkeling with mantas and turtles- fantastic!
The team were fabulous. Heri, Agy and Renol were fantastic and ensured our safety and wellbeing. Heri was extremely supportive and he explained everything thoroughly and answered all our questions. Renol kindly offered to dive and take a video of a turtle during the snorkelling which was so beautiful. We are very grateful for the team, would highly recommend!
Perfect trip for 1 day. Contains all the highlights of Komodo, but not in a rush! The staff was very friendly and helpfull! It was a perfect day for us
Well run tour, kudos to the guides on the Blue Alexandria Agy, Heri, Ipin. What i found reassuring was that there was a check on snorkeling experience and test for equipment, those who were not confident in snorkeling like my parents were towed around by the guides via life buoy. You don’t beat the crowd by being first on Padar island but going after sunrise to beat the LOB crowd. I think the golden morning light is very beautiful
A great experience. A must do while in Labuan Bajo. It covers all the major stops in the Komodo national park! Would 100% recommend. Our guide Hugo and the rest of the crew were great!
Awesome experience with the Bintang crew, amazing snorkelling and seeing 20+ Mantarays at Manta Point. Definitely would recommend this tour to couples, family's and solo travellers like myself. Definitely one of the best reefs I have snorkelled around the world. Great experience. Cheers Lance
Our day was unbelievable, impossible to describe how amazing it was. We were looking fwd to see the Komodo dragons - was fantastic! But in addition the Padar Island walk, Pink Beach snorkeling the red coral & the manta ray dive were beyond expectations. The team/crew getting us from point to point & keeping us safe were exceptional. Highly recommend these guys. 5 stars for a reason.
I was prepared to be pretty underwhelmed but these guys knocked it out of the park. Our guide (Heri) made this a highlight in a tour of highlights. From the moment we got in the pickup van to the moment we stepped off the dock these guys made sure we were the focus. From the hill walk photos he took, the pink beach snorkelling advice, lunch with the Komodo Dragons walking around us, to snorkelling with the Mantra Rays, it was a day to remember. Whilst there was a bit of current on the dives, he made sure we kept together, and that the boat followed us. TBH they are the same price as everyone else but having watched other groups, you get way more for your money. These is a reason they are rated number one.
Had to see the dragons. They were everywhere. Even at lunch. Plus the other stops makes this really worth it.
This tour was amazing !! Hugo was such a great guide and we saw some of the most beautiful places ! Highly highly recommend We made it time to beat the crowds plus lunch was delicious Safety was their number one priority and I felt I was in the best of hands durning the snorkeling !
Our day trip with Bintang Komodo Tours was exactly what we were hoping for while staying in Labuan Bajo. The guides were friendly, the boat comfortable, and the day well organized. All the stops were great, with plenty of time to enjoy. Of course we were excited to see the Komodo dragons, but it was also thrilling to swim above the manta rays and snorkel with sea turtles. Pink Beach was beautiful, and so too was the viewpoint atop Padar Island. All in all, it was a great day and well worth the money - highly recommend!
What a fantastic day!! And these guys know how to schedule so you avoid crowds. They take great pics too! Thanks for an amazing experience!!!
Everything went as expected. Trip well organized, crew competent and friendly.
What an incredible trip! As we were riding out of Labuan Bajo by boat as the sun was rising behind us, surrounded by Komodo National Park islands, we knew the trip was already worth it. The crew and guides were excellent. We saw Komodo dragons, manta rays, turtles, dolphins, deer and so many fish. Definitely recommend - it’s worth the early start!
One of the best experiences! We saw 5 Komodo’s plus a baby one. The snorkeling was amazing saw a bunch of Manta Rays. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. I would 100% recommend this excursion!
Wonderful tour. The guides were excellent— helpful and knowledgeable. The scenery is absolutely beautiful and they covered a lot during the trip. There is a lot of snorkeling and a lot of great views. I came all the way to Indonesia to see the Komodo dragons and was lucky enough to see several. I would highly recommend this tour. The hour of departure is early but well worth it. The staff, the scenery, the ocean and the dragons make it all worthwhile.
