Malca Voyages under way in Komodo National Park, seen from the air

3D2N · private charter

Three days, and the only published route

The length most groups choose. Two nights leave room for Padar at dawn, Pink Beach, the dragons and Manta Point without rushing any of them.

  • 1–12 guests USD 6,000 per charter
  • 13–18 guests USD 6,700 per charter

A private 3D2N charter on Malca Voyages costs USD 6,000 for 1 to 12 guests and USD 6,700 for 13 to 18, for the whole vessel. The route covers Kelor, Padar, Pink Beach, Komodo Island and Manta Point.

Rates read from the Komodo Luxury listing on 15 September 2026, checked by Komodo Luxury on 11 September. Park fees are extra and rates are subject to change.

  • This page covers the whole boat only. A single cabin on a fixed 3D2N departure is on the open trip page, from USD 300 per person.
  • The thirteenth guest moves the whole booking up a band, so a group of thirteen can pay more per head than a group of twelve.
  • Capacity is stated as 21 guests while the seven cabins add up to 19 berths. Groups of 20 or 21 should ask how the extra places sleep.

The package

What the three days cost

A flat price for the vessel in three brackets. You pay for the boat, not per berth, so the figure holds whether two sail or twelve.

The per-guest column is our arithmetic at the top of each band, rounded to the dollar, not a Komodo Luxury per-person quote. Twelve is the lightest per head in the first band.

The published plan

Where the boat goes, hour by hour

Komodo Luxury publishes one timed day plan, and this is it. No other length has one.

  1. Day 1 of 3

    Kelor, Manjarite and Kalong at dusk

    Board in the morning and finish where the bats fly out.

    • 08:00–09:00 Pick-up from your hotel or the airport in Labuan Bajo
    • Morning Trek on Kelor Island
    • Midday Lunch on board
    • Afternoon Snorkelling at Manjarite
    • Sunset Kalong Island, as the bats fly out; dinner aboard
  2. Day 2 of 3

    Padar, Pink Beach, dragons and mantas

    The heavy day: two treks, two snorkel stops and a sandbank between dawn and sunset.

    • 06:00 Padar Island trek
    • 08:15 Breakfast, then Pink Beach
    • 10:00 Sail to Komodo Island
    • 11:30 Komodo dragon trek

    • 17:30 Sunset, with dinner at 18:00
  3. Day 3 of 3

    Sebayur and the ride home

    An early start, one last snorkel, then back to the harbour.

    • 06:00 Sunrise breakfast
    • 08:00 Snorkelling at Sebayur
    • 09:30 Lunch and the return to Labuan Bajo

Komodo Luxury states that destinations can change with weather, field conditions or force majeure, and guests follow the guide's call on the day. Pack reef-safe sunscreen and sturdy sandals for the Padar climb, and a light layer for the 06:00 start.

In the package

What is included, and what costs extra

Budget the park fees on top of the package total, for every guest.

Included

  • Two nights on board, all meals, mineral water, coffee and tea
  • Guide, snorkel gear and life vests
  • Raw drone, GoPro and mirrorless footage from the trip
  • Pick-up and drop-off on the Labuan Bajo mainland near the harbour

Not included

  • Komodo National Park fees, set by government regulation at the time of your trip
  • Optional park drone permit, requested at least seven days ahead
  • Crew gratuities, flights and personal expenses
  • Alcoholic drinks, soft drinks and personal snacks

Pick-up does not cover other islands or the Manjaga area. Because park fees follow the regulation in force on your travel date, confirm the current figure close to departure.

Between the stops

The boat your group has to itself

On a private charter nobody outside your party is on any of it.
