1Awful company. Put us on wrong trip and refused a refund. 40 mins late. Bad communication and awful staff
Do not book with this company. Absolute scam merchants. Put us on the wrong trip and refused a refund. I have never complained in my life but Viator have bad customer service and are totally unreliable
5A Fun and Unique Excursion! Highly Recommended!
Snorkeling where there is an abundance of diverse types of fish, plus a hike to a viewpoint overlooking a beautiful beach and turquoise water (note: the hiking trail is quite steep and uneven, so proper footwear is recommended), then chilling out on the beach, and lastly anchoring off a mangrove area to watch the sunset while hundreds of bats leave their caves and fly overhead.
5Our stay at the Ayana
Good environment, friendly staff and a great place to relax. I found that the resort is not well lit in some places making it a little scary.
5A perfect tour
It was a very thoughtfully arranged tour. We had two opportunities to snorkel. We saw the Komodo dragons, watched a gorgeous sunset, and saw the flying foxes. The staff was thoughtful, organized, and fun to be around. The prepared food (lunch and then a late snack) was delicious. As a single traveler, I was welcomed, and the experience itself brought all the guests together. I fully recommend this to you.
5The better komodo tour
Such a pleasant tour! Even tho the tour duration is short, i felt satisfied with the tour bcs Alex, our tour guide did such a great job. He went out of his way to show us sea creatures in snorkeling. The komodo park is much better than the other tour. Love it
4Nice evening activity from Labuan Bajo.
Watching the flying foxes leave the mangrove forest at sunset was amazing to witness. The boat was of better quality and size than another Komodo area tour I had been on. The hike was very steep over eroded dirt and rocks. The group (mostly young and in shape) struggled up and down the “path”, and those without good hiking shoes risked falling and getting hurt.
