Pink beach and Mantas - Great locations with beautiful views. Long trip so brace yourself with patience. The pink beach is a delight, very unique. Based on season you can be fortunate to catch the mantas. Recommended and worth every penny.

Great experience - Was told to be ready between 5:30 and 6am. They did come until 6:27am. No calls answered nor message. The boat trip however was really great! Really enjoyed it. The tour guide was knowledgeable about the areas. Very friendly. The boat caption seem a bit rude when telling us to jump off at one point. The food at lunch time was good. Got to see the manta rays, loved it. Pink Beach was also stunning! Had enough time at each spot.

So much fun in 1 day - Almost every destination exceeded my expectations and had a great time every place we stopped. Possibly the best day we had in our 13 days in Indonesia.

great trip until the boat ran out of petrol - All the details were well taken care of. The crew was attentive to the needs of limitations of an elderly couple and supported them throughout the day. Stops along the route were good, and the highlight was the short walk to see the Kodmodo dragons.
Could have been perfect if it weren't for the unfortunate lack of petrol at the end of the trip that caused the board to be stranded for over an hour. Seems like the crew was not trying to be creative with ways to get their guests back and just waited for their company to bring them petrol from far away.
It was a disappointing ending to otherwise a lovely day. This seems basic and should not happen.

Overall great tour - Overall great tour! Professional crew and well equiped boat with toilet. We enjoyed every part of this trip, we were able to see all the best spots in Komodo National Park and do some snorkling too. The food for lunch was great! Just one minus point for fins - several times it got loose in water and I had to come back to the boat and change for another one. Than I had to swim with different size of fins on each leg. Snorkel was not in the best condition too.

Great value trip - Overall this was a really great trip. It was on a small boat, with 4 crew and a captain. There were 10 customers, so it was a bit squeezy. The small boat meant we were able to access stops and leave more easily. There was adequate time at all six destinations and plenty of opportunity for swimming or snorkeling. The snorkeling was superb. The hike up Pandar was straightforward but very crowded. Spectacular views. The small group was great for Komodo island, it meant we were more agile and saw 3 Komodo’s. There were some VERY large groups of 30 plus people, glad we weren’t in one of those, I doubt they saw a Komodo because of the group size. Lunch was tasty and delivered in plastic reusable bento boxes. Great idea as there is sooo much plastic garbage here in Indo! Plenty of water and soft drinks provided as part of the trip fee. Toilet is small, so best you are changed ready for swimming before boarding. If not, you can change at Pink Beach. Like a lot of things in this part of the world, managing safety risk is pretty loose. So take responsibility for yourself, useful to have a small first kit with you and be a good swimmer. If not, then be cautious and ask for a life vest as there is current at most dive stops. The snorkeling was the best bit, astoundingly good coral, plentiful fish and turtles in clear water, amazing. No mantas this time. Don’t be shocked by the huge number of people and boats. This was a really good value for money trip, the guide Gusti spoke passable English and the rest of the crew were friendly and helpful. It was one of the cheaper trips available and it didn’t disappoint.

Mass tourism and Insecurity. - Pick-up, schedule, condition of the boat: impeccable. Out of kindness, I will not say anything about the captain who typed another boat, or about the “guides who do not accompany”.
Tour without interest just to say that you set foot on Padar, saw 2 dragons landed in the Komodo ranger camp, landed on pink beach but snorkeling prohibited, swam in the open sea, in 3 places: the first of very average interest with Guide who swam so fast that only 2 followed him, the other 2 from 12m to 20 meters bottom and nothing else. Surrounded by many other boats and groups that seem a little better organized.
Swimmers with masks (let’s not talk about snorkeling) live their lives, scatter in all directions despite the current, a family on one side, beginners in the other 3, sometimes join another group so another boat. The boat can not follow and it is necessary to recover after half an hour. each one and the other, some being out of sight, spectacle in 40 years of sea travel never seen before.
I spoke with many travelers during the 3 weeks spent in Labuan. The best formula seems 2 days and one night on cruise ship (slow), less subject to mass tourism and timing.

Misrepresentation of amenities offered. Running out of gas! - The boat was small. No air conditioning. No seasonal fruit, breads, nuts, coffee or tea. Only wafer, water, Coke and orange juice. I sat behind The boat captain and I kept getting soaked with ocean water because spray. There was no window beside the captain or myself because the he had to be able to stick his head out the window to see oncoming boat traffic. We ended up running out of 15 miles from the marina. It took them over an hour to bring us a can of gas. I would not recommend using this company. I have filed a complaint with the company and requested my money back

Unprofessional, lies, and 4 hours of missed time - This was the worst excursion I’ve ever done. They were adamant about being on time for the car. We were on time and there was no car. We had to continuously call and message them the entire time. They would either ignore us or say they’re on the way when they were not. They finally came 40 minutes late. They dropped us off at the dock and we waited her another hour. Everyone was very aggravated because 1 the story of why we were leaving so late kept changing and 2 we were now missing over 2 hours or what we paid for. Then when we were at one location, they were very unprofessional and screaming at everyone to jump in the water. Someone jumped in and freaked out and had to get pulled back onto the boat. During this process, the person caught a wire in the propeller and oil was spilling everywhere. We were then stuck on the boat for 2 hours. They wouldn’t even let us jump in and enjoy the spot we were supposed to. When it was fixed they said we can have time for one spot but not the other 2. They did not ask us our opinion on which spot we wanted. Many of us were very disappointed they did not bring us to the manta rays. When I asked why we couldn’t go there since that’s what most of the people sitting near me wanted, he said bc we wouldn’t see any this time of year. When I looked online, it said this is the best time of year to swim with manta rays in this area. Yet another lie told to us. I understand accidents happen but it was the lack of professionalism that was upsetting. We never got any money back for missing 4 hours of our trip and the experience with the manta rays.
