Bintang Komodo Tours

Many thanks to Yeri and the ship crew for an amazing 3D2N trip - the boat was clean, well-maintained and sturdy (see attached pic), and we had ample time for swimming, hiking and snorkelling at all the attractions. They made sure guests were safe throughout and the crew was very attentive and helpful. Food was good too, with a special highlight being served fish that was freshly caught from the sea by the crew!

Amazing experience.
Everything was perfect, the 4 guides were extremely friendly and could not do enough for us.
The early start meant we were ahead of the rest of the boats and saw all the sights first.
The boat was great, very Modern and comfortable, (sit inside or outside) for the approx 12 of us on the tour with toilet and coolbox.
The snorkelling gear was in great condition. The guides knew where to find the sharks, turtles and mantas.
The Komodo tour was great, the dragons we took the photos with may have been enticed there but we saw plenty of wild ones aswell. Although everyone does the same tour there with Komodo guides. Lunch was good.

We whatsapped Doddy direct through the number here on google maps.
He was very flexible with cash/card/bank payment.

Wow. My girlfriend and I had a fantastic experience here. Firstly, the staff were extremely accommodating, flexible and responsive. I made a mistake by booking on the wrong day and at 5:20 in the morning they were able to allow us to go on that tour the same day. The tour, takes you to some breathtaking areas areas including komodo island of course to see the komodo dragons. Furthermore we visited padar island, pink beach, takar makassar and some amazing snorkeling spots full of colourful fish. We even saw turtles and manta rays. The staff as mentioned before are fantastic. They helped us find all many animals, they were all super sweet and fun. Thank you so much for the experience.

Perfect day out to Komodo national park and snorkeling. Even though we left really early we were often the first group at most of the sites which meant we avoided the crowds. The tour guides and boat crew took us to some magnificent snorkeling spots where we saw many incredible animals like manta rays turtles and a reef shark. Thank you for a stunning outing.

If you are in Labuan Bajo and want to see everything Komodo National park has to offer, you need to go on their day tour. Its an early start with a 5:30am meet on the dock, but its well worth it. For the hike on Padar Island we where one of the first boats to arrive and got to take great photos up at the mountain peak overlooking the amazing view. The hike is challenging as its about 20 minutes up stairs, but theres multiple stops along the way and if you cant make it to the top you can still see the view a little lower and take photos (which the fabulous guides take). We also got to pink beach before most of the other boats arrived and got to do some snorkeling off the beach (all snorkeling equipment provided, but definitely bring your own towel and a coverup for the sun/ a rashie), off the beach were some amazing corals, plenty of fish and even some small sharks (all harmless)! We even saw a sea snake! We also got to Komodo island before the other tours, and got to see 3 huge Komodo Dragons! So cool, our guides got some amazing photos of us “close” to the dragons and gave us some amazing info. The “trek” is only 2.5kms and takes maybe 30mins with plenty of breaks for photos and facts, all flat ground. It was hot on komodo, but the tour provides complementary cold waters, cokes and water melon throughout the day so you are never too hot. Lunch on Komodo island was tasty and filling, if you want to buy a t-shirt/ other merch bring some extra cash as there’s plenty of opportunities! After komodo we stopped at this beautiful sand bank/island with crystal clear water for more swimming, photos and general relaxing before more snorkeling with turtles and plenty of fish! The swimming from here is a little challenging as you are swept down the coral area by the current, but unless you want to go against the current you will be fine. They also provide life jackets and floaties for those who need it and the guides are in the water with you at all times, helping to spot animals and keep everyone close. At manta point we where not the first to arrive but its fine because then the other boats help you to find the mantas! We got lucky and saw quite a few, upwards of 8! Once again you go with the current and the rays swim right under you as they catch the krill. If you want to get close you have to dive quite deep and swim against the current, but its not needed. These beautiful creatures are easily spotted as they are huge (but harmless)! After that we went snorkeling at another spot and saw many turtles. We got back to the dock at about 3:30pm, the latest you get back is about 4pm. Nothing about the day felt rushed, the guides where helpful, happy and attentive. It was a day that i will remember for a while. I dont enjoy rushed touristy things, and on our small boat with a small group nothing felt rushed or too touristy. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough!

Did the one day tour and was definitely the highlight of our Bali trip.
Padar Island is just spectacular.
Lucky enough to see one baby, one juvenile and one adult Dragon on Komodo Island.
Pink Beach is pretty (please don't expect it look like Instagram photos).
Turtle Cove lived up to its name with turtles everywhere.
Staff were great and attentive.
Highly recommend.

Great tour! We saw many things including the absolutely legendary Komodo Dragons. The tour was a full day included water and other drinks and lunch. The staff was great and made an effort to help us find the different animals. Unfortunately we didn’t see Manta Rays but it was not promised anyway.

There are no hidden costs as some people indicate. It was clearly stated that national park fees are to be paid separately. Also taxes are not always included in the price which is normal practice in Indonesia even if it annoying it it normal here.

Thanks for the great time!

One day speedboat Komodo tour - much recommended!

We had our doubts choosing one day trip over seem-to-be-standard 3d/4n cruise, but it was the best decision. The trip was perfect, and we were lucky with the weather. The speedboat was comfortable, not overcrowded and the operator made sure that we were one of the first boats in each location (even though hotel pick up was 30mins late). The lunch was good enough, there were fresh fruits as snacks, free drinking water and soda. Crew was super nice and professional, we stayed the right amount of time in each location and they did not rush or made us feel that we need to be in haste to make it through the whole program. All in all - in January it’s much safer to book 1 day speedboat tour- if it gets cancelled because of the conditions, you might get lucky on the next day. We had to pay 390k IDR/person for the park fees.

We had an incredible 3 days and two nights with Gervas and the whole boat crew - with just the two of us as guests. Gervas was the best guide - funny, patient, knowledgeable, kind and.. talented photographer!! We went to the absolute best spots, mostly with us being the first to arrive (at sunrise) and last to leave the beautiful islands comparative to other boats so felt very lucky. The whole crew were fantastic and robin our chef prepared amazing food - including a romantic meal for our honeymoon! We had plenty of space on board as it was just us two for a boat of 8-12 people!The tour itself was the highlight of our 3-month honeymoon - snorkelling was phenomenal and the being so close to a stream of huge manta rays! Plus the majestic Komodo dragons we got up close to and stunning scenery! Thank you so much Bintang Komodo tours for such magic memories!

Excellent daytrip to Komodo and Padar Island, including pink beach. We saw komodo dragons, and while snorkeling we saw turtles, many colorful fish and even swam with manta rays! Friendly and informative guides. Water and lunch were provided.

I had the most amazing day trip around Komodo island with this tour company! They were progressional, friendly, kind and fun and made us feel really safe. The scenery and activities were absolutely incredible, the best of my 2 months in Indonesia!

Had a great day, could take it at your own pace on the walks. Didn't see big Komodo, but know it's not that time of year.
Wildlife being wild :)
Staff were awesome, friendly.
Lunch wasn't my taste, but I'm fussy 😁

The pick up and drop was smooth. The crew of the Red Alexandria at Labuan Bajo were amazing.
Heri, Erlanga and the capitan were awesome. They took us early to see the best spots so that we were first to reach at each place.
They kept us safe during the entire trip and made sure we saw the best sights!
Even if you are not a good swimmer, there is no problem. There are life vests and the team will guide you around the ocean while snorkeling also if needed.
We swam with 3 huge majestic Manta Rays! Take a GoPro if you can, to take videos of the ocean life and Manta Rays.
Seeing a real live Komodo dragon up close was also exhillerating! Also, Taka makkasar is straight out of Pirates of the Caribbean!
The team provided us with enough water, fruits, snacks and lunch throughout the trip.
Overall, it was the best day!

Super well organized tour with fast boat!
We did the day tour with departure at 5.30am and we visited 6 incredible places (Padar island, Komodo island, Pink beach, Taka makasar, Manta point and Siaba island (turtle city). The crew are amazing.
Heri was our guide and was the best: passionate, attentive, funny and the best photographer!! Thank you Heri for the amazing day!

Excellent daytrip tour to see main Komodo National Park attractions.

As boat was fast and tour started early, we were among first in most places avoiding all masses, making experience whole lot better. All the staff was very friendly and lunch provided was delicious!

Definitely recommended.

It was incredible tour, one-in-a-lifetime experience! Definitely recommend 1 day Komodo tour! Thanks to the crew, especially our guide Harry

Would rate higher than 5 stars if I could!! Absolutely incredible tour and excellent staff. Amazing scenery & coral. Got to see plenty of komodo dragons, swim with manta rays and a few turtles too! Make sure you don't miss this!

They did everything I would expect from a good tour company. They were organised on the day, boat was decent and comfortable, guides were friendly, helpful, took photos for us, helped us to make sure we saw turtles and mantas in the water. Lunch was actually very tasty although fairly simple (chicken, rice, veg). Watermelon in the morning and afternoon snack of sweet bread. Nothing felt rushed despite being a lot to fit in a one day tour. Scuba equipment was good quality. I have no negatives.

What a fantastic trip. From start to finish this was one of the best experiences I’ve had the pleasure to enjoy on a trip overseas.
There is so much to mention without wanting to spoil it for others but let me call out some highlights that I think makes this trip a must do for anyone visiting Labuan Bajo
* the hotel pick up and drop off is priceless, especially at the end of the long action packed day, you’ll be grateful of it
* The amount of things in the day is terrific with particular highlights the early morning trek up Padar Island, Komodo National park and the snorkelling
* Lunch is provided and is really good, but the constant cycle of free water is great and the watermelon and traditional Labuan Bajo bread was a bonus
* The amount of information from the guides is amazing - really helpful and informative with a really good grasp of English to help most people on the boat

The last thing to say about this trip was I observed two of the guides taking it in turns to pull the less confident swimmers with a flotation ring so that they could enjoy the snorkelling. For me that was something I’d never seen a company go to that lengths and the inclusiveness of that was truly fantastic.

If you want a good chance of seeing dragons then this is trip for you, Komodo park is as amazing as you’d expect and the chance of seeing a dragon with this company is really high as they plan their trips well.

Well run tour with friendly guides and saw plenty of sights. Highlights for me were Padar Island, which we had ample time on, and some of the best snorkelling I’ve ever experienced. It was crazy swimming along with a sea turtle by my side and the marine life in general was incredible. Pink Beach isn’t really what the photos make out, which is a shame, but not the tour’s fault.

Only criticisms of the tour would be that it would be great if it were to include breakfast given the early 5:30am start and also great if it were to include towels. Otherwise, all good!
