Explore hidden underground caves in Labuan Bajo

RangkoCave 2.jpg

The total cost for this itinerary is USD $950 (SGD 1300) per person on a twin-sharing basis. This includes all activities, a 3D2N luxury Komodo boat trip, Komodo National Park fees, airport transfers, and a nice 3-star hotel for days 4-6.

Budget

Labuan Bajo is very safe, even for solo female travelers. You can explore the town comfortably, though some areas might be dimly lit at night. Petty crime is rare, but as with anywhere, it’s good to stay aware of your surroundings.

Safety

There are multiple flights a day from Bali (Indonesia), and from Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia). You'll need to fly in the day before your boat trip as most boat trips leave early in the morning before flights arrive. 

Getting there

The best time for this itinerary is April–December, as 3D2N boat trips rarely run during the rainy season (Jan–March). Visit in April–May for fewer crowds or September–November for better wildlife sighting.
