Sailing to Komodo island trip 4D 3N from lombok

You won't lose out with a very impressive trip experience... absolutely your trip will be amazing with SUKATRIP

Had Really good experience . Very recommended

Had a great time! Sure, the boat isn't luxurious and the beds are not super comfy, but the staff is wonderful, the food delicious and all the attractions amazing. I was staying in Tetebatu, so the owner suggested I come directly to the bangsal harbour (because that's where the boat starts, usually they transfer everyone from the meeting point by bus). Just beware - the whale sharks are lured with food. That's was the only thing I didn't like about the trip.

I didn’t expect this trip to be so enjoyable. For the first time in my life, I was able to see a huge whale shark, as well as the rare and massive Komodo dragons. I also swam with baby sharks, saw many kinds of fish, and enjoyed the stunning view from the top of Padar Island.

We rarely post things like this, but this needs to be said about Sukatrip. We travelled across Indonesia for three days specifically for their whale shark experience, spending a total of 5,500,000 IDR between us. This wasn’t just another activity on our itinerary, it was the main reason for the trip. Unfortunately, the experience never happened. We completely understand that weather conditions are out of anyone’s control. What is not acceptable is that this was only communicated to us after we had already made the long journey, despite forecasts clearly being available in advance. This could and should have been handled far better. The organisation throughout was extremely poor. We were told to wake at 3am, only to sit around for hours waiting for updates, before eventually being told the trip couldn’t go ahead. We were then required to stay an extra night due to transport issues, which was not part of the plan. On top of that, travel times were massively misrepresented, with “5–7 hour journeys” turning into exhausting 12–14 hour days with barely any rest. We didn’t pay for long, uncomfortable travel days and basic accommodation. We paid for the whale shark experience and snorkelling, which we did not receive. We have requested a fair 70% refund to reflect this, but so far this has not been properly resolved. We’re sharing this so others are aware before booking. We would have much preferred to resolve this privately and positively, but the handling of the situation has left us with no choice. If you’re considering booking with them, we strongly recommend asking very clear questions upfront and getting full clarity before committing. We’re still open to resolving this directly and hope a fair outcome can be reached.
