This guide will take you through every step, helping you plan an unforgettable journey to the home of the legendary Komodo dragons. Komodo Island, part of Komodo National Park, is a remote paradise known for its stunning landscapes, rich marine life, and, of course, the world’s largest lizards.

While reaching this distant destination from Bandung might seem challenging, with the right information, you’ll be well-prepared for a seamless adventure. Here’s everything you need to know about traveling from Bandung to Komodo Island.

How to Get to Komodo Island from Bandung

Traveling from Bandung to Komodo Island involves a bit of planning as the distance is approximately 1,728 km, and you’ll need to combine several transportation options. Given the distance, flying is the most practical and comfortable way to travel. However, be prepared for a few stopovers along the way. Let’s dive into the step-by-step process of how you can reach Komodo Island from Bandung.

First things first—there are no direct flights from Bandung’s Husein Sastranegara Airport to Komodo Airport in Labuan Bajo. Your best bet is to fly from Kertajati Airport in Majalengka, located about three hours from Bandung. This is the nearest airport offering flights to Labuan Bajo, the closest town to Komodo Island. Here are flight options that will get you to Labuan Bajo:

      Boat trip to Komodo Island

      Once you’ve landed at Komodo Airport in Labuan Bajo, your journey to Komodo Island is just beginning! After arriving in Labuan Bajo, the next step is to reach Komodo Island by boat, as there are no roads or bridges connecting Labuan Bajo to the island. The harbor is only a 10-15 minute drive from the airport, so it’s a quick and easy transfer.

      While there are options for short trips to Komodo Island, the best way to fully experience the beauty of the region is by taking an overnight boat tour. These tours allow you to explore more of the surrounding islands, beaches, and reefs at a relaxed pace, all while staying on a boat and soaking in the spectacular views. Tour packages range from 4 nights up to 12 nights, offering plenty of flexibility depending on how much time you have.

      There are plenty of tour options available, but to get the best experience, it’s important to book your trip in advance, especially during peak seasons. One of the top operators in Labuan Bajo is KomodoLuxury, known for its outstanding service and highly skilled guides. Here are some Komodo Island Tour Package options by Komodo Luxury that can be chosen according to your needs and preferences.

      1. Komodo Boat Trip – Private Sailing Tour

Whether it’s a romantic getaway or a family adventure, this package ensures an unforgettable journey.

        2. Komodo Boat Trip – Open/Shared Trip

          If you’re traveling solo or in a small group and want to meet fellow adventurers, the Open/Shared Trip is a great option. It’s more cost-effective than a private tour, but still provides great service and the opportunity to explore Komodo National Park with other like-minded travelers. 

          3. Komodo Boat Trip – Full-Day/One-Day Trip

            Short on time but still eager to see the highlights of Komodo Island? The Full-Day/One-Day Trip is the way to go. Using a speedboat, you can visit Komodo’s top spots in just one day. This is perfect if you’re on a tight schedule but don’t want to miss out on iconic locations like Padar Island, Pink Beach, and Komodo Island itself.

            Please Note!

            Booking your Komodo Island Boat Tour well in advance is crucial. Boat availability in Labuan Bajo is limited, and during peak travel seasons, they can sell out months ahead. To avoid disappointment and secure the best boat for your adventure, it’s recommended to book 1-2 months before your trip.

            Conclusion

            Traveling from Bandung to Komodo Island may take some planning, but once you’re there, it’s an adventure of a lifetime. From the dramatic landscapes to the rare and incredible Komodo dragons, this journey is sure to leave you with unforgettable memories. 

            With Komodo Luxury, you can enjoy a seamless and comfortable trip that takes care of all your needs, allowing you to enjoy the beauty surrounding you without worrying about anything. We look forward to welcoming you aboard our Komodo Island tour with Komodo Luxury today!
