Komodo Open Trip — Shared Sailing Adventure in Komodo National Park

The Open Trip sailing experience from Komodo Padar Tour offers a shared group adventure through the breathtaking landscapes and marine wonders of Komodo National Park — all at a more accessible price than a private yacht charter. Designed for solo travelers, couples, and small groups, this tour blends premium service aboard a luxury phinisi boat with the chance to meet fellow explorers from around the world.

What Is the Komodo Open Trip?

Instead of renting an entire yacht, the Komodo Open Trip lets you join other travelers on a 3-day, 2-night (3D2N) sailing tour from Labuan Bajo. This shared option delivers the same high-quality experience found in private charters but at a fraction of the cost — starting from around IDR 3,550,000 per person for the full liveaboard journey.

Onboard, you’ll enjoy luxury Phinisi comforts, professional crew support, and a curated itinerary that highlights the best of Komodo National Park — including iconic islands, snorkeling sites, and natural wonders — all while sailing with a friendly international group.

Shared Sailing with Luxury Comfort

The Open Trip isn’t just budget-friendly — it’s also smart luxury.
