What to Expect

Flores island in East Nusa Tenggara province is one of Indonesia’s Lesser Sunda Islands. Situated to the east of Sumbawa and Komodo island and southeast of Timor; Flores sits just across the Sumba Strait from Sumba island. To the north, beyond the Flores Sea is Sulawesi. Dotted by volcanoes that are often surrounded by terraced valleys, then ringed by glorious beaches, the island of Flores is a fabulous destination for adventurers, nature lovers and explorers. The port town of Labuan Bajo on the west of the island is the entry point to Komodo National Park, a World Heritage Site that is home to the wild Komodo dragon.

This 3-day package combines your stay with 1 night on board a local wooden boat and 1 night in a comfortable hotel room; providing you opportunity to see the komodo dragons, to visit the highlights of the Komodo National Park and to snorkel in the pristine water of superb snorkelling spots.
