Open Trip Labuan Bajo — Shared Phinisi Departures

Departures board at Labuan Bajo harbour on a fixed 3D2N rhythm year-round — the schedule table above always shows the next sailings. Cabins are sold per person, per departure.

Is there a 2D1N Komodo liveaboard?

The 2D1N format is the classic short open trip — offered on selected departures when the calendar allows. The 3D2N remains the standard because it fits Padar, the dragons, Pink Beach, and Manta Point without a single rushed morning. Ask the desk for current 2D1N dates.

Is the Komodo open trip all inclusive?

The rate is effectively all inclusive for the voyage: cabin, meals, snorkel gear, guide, and routing — with park tickets itemized separately per the permit guide and alcohol per vessel policy.

2027 Season

Every Sailing on Our Own Boats

Our 2027 open-trip dates are set — every sailing on our own boats, with our own crews, so the departure you book is the departure that sails. Cabins sell in ones and twos, and the best ones — upper deck, private bath — go long before a sailing is full.

View the full 2027 charter calendar →

How early should I reserve?

If you care which cabin you sleep in, book when the dates open rather than when your plans firm up — the best cabins go first on every sailing.

September–December season

Quieter bays, calm seas, and smaller groups on board — the stretch our crews recommend to returning guests. September / October sailings fill fastest.

Frequently Asked Questions

A shared trip Komodo, also called an open trip Komodo, is a 3-day 2-night group sailing tour where 8–24 travelers share a Phinisi boat departing from Labuan Bajo to explore Komodo National Park. Komodo Luxury operates shared trip Komodo packages from USD 300-850 per person, visiting Padar Island, Pink Beach, Komodo Island, and Manta Point on a fixed 3D2N itinerary.
A shared trip Komodo (open trip) costs USD 300 to 850 per person with 8 to 22 fellow travelers on a fixed 3D2N route. A private charter Komodo is priced per package for the whole boat, not per person: from USD 5,300 per private charter (2D1N, Malca, 1 to 12 guests; 2026 and 2027 rate cards), with an itinerary you set. Komodo Luxury offers both: shared trips suit solo travelers and couples; private charters suit families, celebrations and groups wanting privacy. The full per-person arithmetic is in our private vs shared comparison.
Yes. Pricing is per person, so a solo traveler can book a single bed in a sharing cabin, shared with another same-gender guest, from USD 330 per person on Malca (2026 and 2027 rate card), or take a cabin alone at the published single-occupancy rate. Sharing beds are also listed on Catnazse and Naturalia. The group of 8 to 24 guests on board makes it easy to meet other travelers.
Yes, couples can book a shared trip Komodo with a private double cabin while still enjoying the lower per-person pricing of a group tour. Komodo Luxury open trips offer Master Ocean View and Suite cabins on vessels like Ayvara Cruises (USD 570/person, private balcony) and Catnazse Master Room (USD 680/person, ensuite room, 2026 rate). Couples get privacy onboard plus shared excursions with the group.

Shared Komodo boat tour welcomes children aged 3 and above at the full rate. Family-friendly cabins are available on Catnazse Liveaboard (Family Room, 4 guests USD 430/person) and Malca Voyages (Quad Room, 4 persons USD 330/person). Komodo Luxury crews are trained to assist children with snorkeling gear and life jackets, but families wanting fully private space should consider a private charter.

For shared trip / open trip Komodo, Komodo Luxury sails its own four boats, Ayvara Cruises (15 guests, 7 cabins, Starlink internet), Naturalia (24 guests, 8 cabins, jacuzzi), Catnazse Liveaboard (18 guests, 8 cabins, dive-focused) and Malca Voyages (21 guests, 7 cabins, karaoke and jacuzzi), alongside vetted partner boats Neptune Phinisi, Mosalaki, Elbark Cruises, Yumana and Vinca Voyages. Our four boats have air-conditioned ensuite cabins and English-speaking crew; partner boats are described on their own pages.
For luxury amenities on a shared Komodo trip, top picks are Ayvara Cruises, Malca, Catnazse, Neptune Phinisi and Vinca. Ayvara offers stand-out comforts such as high-speed internet and a 360° rooftop deck, while Malca, Catnazse, Neptune and Vinca combine stylish cabins, curated interiors, and upgraded onboard facilities for guests seeking a more premium experience.
Most shared trip Komodo operators run similar 3D2N itineraries; they differ on fleet, crew certification and reviews. Komodo Luxury (Labuan Bajo, since 2015) sails KSOP and KKP certified vessels with trained crew, and a reservations desk answers on WhatsApp. Compare on fleet age, private bathrooms in cabins, certification and published guest reviews, not just price.
For divers joining a shared trip Komodo, the dive-focused boats on our listings are Catnazse Liveaboard (our own boat, 18 guests) and the partner vessels Pinta Phinisi and Magika Liveaboard. Pinta Phinisi has a dedicated diving deck and ensuite cabins; Magika Liveaboard is built for divers. Dive sites include Batu Bolong, Manta Point and Castle Rock; diving is an add-on requested at booking, not part of the standard package.
The smallest boat on our shared trip Komodo listings is Mosalaki, a partner vessel launched in 2024 with 5 cabins for up to 12 guests, for travelers who want a smaller group. Among our own boats, Ayvara (15 guests, 7 cabins) is the smallest; Naturalia (24 guests) suits travelers who enjoy a larger, social group.
Very easy: a large share of our guests join from Bali. Fly from Bali's Ngurah Rai Airport (DPS) to Labuan Bajo in about 1.5 hours on one of several daily direct flights, and you are at the harbour within minutes of landing. Because it is a domestic hop, no extra visa paperwork is needed beyond your existing Indonesia entry, which is why the trip is a favorite among Bali expats, digital nomads based in Canggu or Ubud, and travelers mid-way through a Bali holiday. Book the Friday weekend departure for a classic long weekend from Bali, or the Monday weekday departure if your schedule is flexible; arrive the evening before, and our team coordinates your Labuan Bajo meeting point by WhatsApp. Many guests leave their main luggage at their Bali hotel or villa and travel light for the 3 days 2 nights at sea.
Yes. It is one of the most social ways to see Komodo. Many open trip guests travel solo, and a large share begin their journey in Bali, so you will board in Labuan Bajo alongside like-minded solo travelers, couples, and small groups of 8–12 guests in total. Shared cabins, communal deck dining, and guided excursions to Padar Island, Pink Beach, and Komodo Island make it effortless to connect. Cabins from USD 300 per person for the full 3D2N sailing (Malca Triple, three sharing). Solo guests from Bali often choose a weekday departure for a quieter park experience, then fly back to Bali the same afternoon the trip ends.
