This was great got to visit a number of great spots and see tons of the area. Lucky the travel between didn’t take a lot of time.
A very good trip plan, each point was amazing in another way. It's execution was also more than professional, punctual, friendly, helpfull. Boat was comfortable and fast. Absolutely to recommend.

Comfortable high speed boat, Friendly and helpful crew, exceptional views from top of Padar Island, 2 resting Komodo Dragons and a 2 drift snorkels which yielded about 10 Green Turtles and an Oceanic Manta. Fun but exhausting day!
We had an amazing trip and experience
Setting off at 6.30, you would imagine quite a relaxing itinerary, but you would be wrong. Due to the distances involved this tour can at times feel quite rushed, but honestly this is probably part of it's charm. Location 1 - Padar Island - quite a trek up the mountain for spectacular views of the three bays. Time allocated 1.5 hours. Location 2 - Pink beach ( although it is more pinkish nowadays) for a swim and an optional coffee Location 3 - Komodo Island - the main event 1 hour trek to (hopefully) see these magnificent animals in the wild ( we saw 3 adults and a baby one) followed by lunch and then some hard haggling with the locals. Location 4 - The boat stopped on a sandbar for those that wanted to,to practice snorkeling. (30 mins) Location 5 - Serious snorkeling to see the Manta rays circling. We saw 7 (45 mins) Location 6 - More snorkeling to see turtles. We saw one small one (30 mins) Then return to base about 5pm, red, exhausted but satisfied that you have not wasted your day. Thank you Ken and the team
Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review. You are absolutely right that the day starts early and covers quite a long distance, which can make the itinerary feel fast paced. We are glad to hear that you saw this as part of the experience and felt that your day was truly well spent. It is great to know you enjoyed each destination, from the hike at Padar Island and the swim at Pink Beach to seeing Komodo dragons in the wild, snorkeling at the sandbar, encountering manta rays, and spotting a turtle. These moments are what make the Komodo trip so special. Thank you as well for your kind words for Ken and the team. We will be sure to share your feedback with them. We are happy to hear you returned tired but satisfied, and we hope to welcome you back to Labuan Bajo again in the future.
Well organized tour with skilled staff. Beautiful places really worth seeing. Only minus was the last extra added 7th stop. This was at a far too luxurious and modern beach club. Which totally fit the tour. Got the strong impression that the tour gets paid for this by the beach club. 10 euros for a mango gravy is a bit too far for me.
Dear Travelers, Thank you so much for joining our tour and for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re really happy to hear that you enjoyed the trip, the crew, and the beautiful destinations. Regarding the concern about a “7th stop” at a beach club, we would like to clarify based on our operational team’s investigation: Our sharing trip itinerary does not include any beach club visit, and our speedboats do not have a route to any beach club. After completing all scheduled destinations, the boat returns directly to the harbour. Additionally, our drivers are assigned strictly for hotel - harbour transfers only, and they did not make any additional stops outside the standard procedure. All SOPs were followed according to our sharing-trip standards. We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and we hope this explanation provides clarity. Thank you once again for exploring Labuan Bajo with us we hope to welcome you back in the future! Warm regards, Aleyah Ocean Queen
We have a perfect outing with nice weather and fortunate enough to spot the various highlights - beautiful pink beach, Komodo dragons in motion, little shark in shadow water, manta and sea turtles while snorkelling.
The trip was amazing so many great spots to swim with water the greenest I have ever seen. The hike is not for the weak but the early means it’s a little less hot and we were lucky and saw several Komodo Dragons.
It was breathtaking and very entertaining. You got a lot to see and was well informed and you felt very well taken care of. The crew was always very attentive and friendly. Very happy to come back!
This tour felt rushed, Some spots were only given 45 mins for instance Pink Beach that needs more time. The boat didn’t even go to the taka makassar sand bar was a disappointment. Visiting the Komodo at the Komodo national park was a disappointment as there was one Komodo which I felt was given something to just stand there sleeping. Lunch was meh, cold. Had to eat at the boat. The staff was great though but the overall experience for visiting the Komodo islands was not met.
Dear Travellers, Warm greetings from Ocean Queen 🌴 Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly appreciate your honest review, as it helps us continue improving our service. Kindly allow us to share that this was an open trip, and the itinerary is thoughtfully designed to provide a well-rounded experience within a one-day schedule. While the time at each destination may feel short, our goal is to ensure guests can explore the main highlights of the Komodo National park in a day without feeling overly rushed. Regarding Taka Makassar, please note that its visibility depends greatly on tide conditions. On certain days, the sandbar may be submerged, making it unsafe or impossible for boats to dock or approach. In such cases, our captain may decide to skip it to prioritize safety and replace it with other island to explore so you can still enjoy the trip. As for the Komodo dragons, we kindly remind all guests that these majestic creatures live freely in their natural habitat, and sightings can vary. While we do our best to ensure guests have the opportunity to see at least one dragon, we cannot guarantee the number, as it depends on wildlife behavior and conditions during the visit. We’re sorry to hear that the lunch did not meet your expectations. Please be assured that all meals are prepared fresh and hygienically. However, we will certainly pass your feedback to our team for further quality checks and improvements. We are truly grateful for your kind words about our staff—your appreciation means a lot to us. While we're sorry the overall experience didn't fully meet your expectations, we do hope to welcome you again in the future—perhaps on a private or small-group trip for a more tailored and relaxed experience. Warm regards, Aleyah Ocean Queen
