The open trip, day by day
On the 3D2N, pickup is at 10:00 from your hotel or the airport, a welcome drink is poured on board, and the boat sails at 10:30. Day one goes to Kelor for a trek, lunch, a snorkel at Manjarite, a snack and the sunset at Kalong.
Both evenings end the same way: dinner, then free time. Where the boat spends each night depends on the weather and on the captain's decision that day.
Day two opens with the Padar trek before breakfast. Pink Beach and the Komodo trek follow, with lunch, then snorkels at Taka Makassar and Manta Point and dinner. On day three, Siaba brings a snorkel first, then breakfast and an early lunch.
Mantas keep their own hours, and the weather can change the route.
Sharing the deck and the dining table
On the open trip the deck belongs to everyone aboard, and so does the dining table. The jacuzzi, the bean bags and the sound system are shared in the same way. That is the trade for a seat price.
The table below gives each class at its seat price per person, two sharing: Deluxe Ocean IDR 5,250,000 (≈ USD 322), Signature Ocean IDR 5,750,000 (≈ USD 353) and Master Ocean IDR 6,250,000 (≈ USD 383). Superior is the lowest class and is in the table.
Your seat covers the cabin, meals, snacks, drinks, snorkelling gear, a local guide and the photo and video documentation of the trip. Park tickets are never included.
| Cabins | Deck | per person | Extra bed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Superior Cabin | Lower deck | IDR 4,550,000 (≈ USD 279) | — |
| Deluxe Ocean Cabin | Upper deck | IDR 5,250,000 (≈ USD 322) | — |

Pickup hour and the flight home
The last day ends in Labuan Bajo in the late morning, so book flights home after 14:00.
At the start, the pickup at 10:00 is the fixed point. If your flight lands after 10:00, tell us the flight number before you book anything else.
Each guest needs a park ticket in their own name, bought online: IDR 250,000 for international visitors, IDR 50,000 for Indonesian visitors on weekdays. Send us the names once your seat is confirmed, because names and passport details are collected before sailing. Ranger and pier charges are added on top, and no seat price includes them.
When to hold the whole boat instead
If your party fills more than a few cabins, price the whole boat before you pick a seat. From 10 guests the 3D2N charter comes to IDR 5,800,000 (≈ USD 356) each, below a Master Ocean seat, and the deck is yours alone.
A family of eight pays IDR 7,250,000 (≈ USD 445) each on a charter and has the dining room to itself. For a group that wants a different length, the 2D1N and the 4D3N are charter only.
The compare page sets the two side by side, with the sharing trade written out. Whatever you choose, the 2026 fares are the same in every month. Weather and the captain still decide the stops on the day.
Signed, your concierge.
