Sailing Komodo 3 days 2 nights is a live-on-board open-air trip on a superior Phinisi boat that takes you through Komodo National Park for three days, complete with trekking to Padar Island, snorkeling at Manta Point, and encounters with Komodo dragons. Suitable for solo travelers, couples, or small groups seeking a more immersive marine experience than a day trip.
You sleep directly on top of KPinishi ship A two-night stay allows more time at each destination than a one-day trip that requires a tight schedule. Highlights include sunrise at Padar, snorkeling with manta rays, trekking to meet Komodo dragons, and sunset at Kalong Island. Check the schedule before your favorite cabin fills up.
Why Choose Sailing Komodo 3 days 2 nights This Tour?
The 3-day, 2-night Sailing Komodo package is long enough to cover Komodo's main attractions without exhausting you like a one-day trip with a tight schedule, but it's also less expensive than four-day packages or more. The boat sails at night while you sleep, so you'll be at your next destination in the morning and ready for your sunrise trek without an early morning departure from Labuan Bajo.
The superior-class vessels used are equipped with air-conditioned cabins, private bathrooms in most cabin types, and spacious sundecks for relaxing. They offer a perfect balance between simpler backpacker ships and much more expensive luxury vessels, so many travelers choose them as the best balance between price and comfort.
