What sailors say about trips with PT Komodo Explorer Indonesia
Updated 23 October 2026
The reviews on this page come from guests of PT Komodo Explorer Indonesia, which sells trips on several boats, Bombana 1 and Bombana 2 among them. We show short quotes, each with a link to the source, and ratings stay with the company.
Short quotes, with links
The block below shows short quotes. Quotes from Google and Tripadvisor are cut to an excerpt of 40 words at most and link to the original. Quotes from WhatsApp carry a first name and a country where we have one, and we hold the guest's consent.
It is a selection, not every review we have received. We show five-star reviews that appear on one platform only, and we skip any that reappear word for word under another name. The full set, with every rating, sits on the Google and Tripadvisor pages the links lead to.
“They made our 2nd anniversary absolutely perfect. We got to stand just metres away from an actual Komodo dragon — the ranger was right there. The crew even played our song while we watched the sun go down.”
“Very good boat, good experience, and fulfilled my dream to see a Komodo dragon.”
“Pengalaman yang luar biasa!”
Translated from Indonesian: an amazing experience.
“We saw not one, not two, but seven manta rays swimming together and I got to swim right among them. One passed maybe 2 metres below me and I could see every detail of its pattern.”
“Loved the experience — the team and crew are the best.”
“We watched the most gorgeous sunset while thousands of flying foxes (kalong) started flying above us against the orange sky. The crew knew exactly where to position the boat for the best view.”
These ratings are for PT Komodo Explorer Indonesia on Google and Tripadvisor, not for one boat. Google 4.8/5 (19) · TripAdvisor 4.7/5 (14) · Ratings and counts as seen on the platforms on 11 October 2026. We quote short excerpts and link to the originals; we do not publish reviews we cannot source.
Where the ratings come from
Our Google and Tripadvisor ratings belong to PT Komodo Explorer Indonesia as a company, built on trips across several boats and not on Bombana alone. A rating is not a review of one boat, and we won't present it as one.
A quote that names another boat does not appear here. A quote that names no boat speaks for the service, which is the same on every sailing: how we answer, how we confirm and how we handle the day.
What we leave out
- Reviews we can't trace to a platform or to a message we hold
- Reviews that appear word for word on two platforms
- Ratings with no text behind them
- Anything paid for, or written by us
The ratings belong to the company across its boats, so none is shown under the name of Bombana 1 or Bombana 2. The gallery shows Bombana 2.

FAQ
Are these reviews about Bombana?
Not by name. They are guests' words about trips with PT Komodo Explorer Indonesia, which sells trips on several boats. A quote that names a boat is shown only on that boat's site, and none here names Bombana 1 or Bombana 2.
Do you edit the reviews?
We cut a long review to an excerpt of 40 words at most and link to the original. We don't rewrite the guest's words, fix their spelling or add praise. WhatsApp quotes carry a first name and a country, with the guest's consent.
Do you hide the bad reviews?
The block is a selection of five-star reviews that we can source and that appear on one platform only. The lower ratings sit on the Google and Tripadvisor pages we link to, with every score, and we don't remove them.
How do I leave a review?
Post it on Google or Tripadvisor, and tell us the boat and the dates. You can also message us on WhatsApp. If you want a message quoted on this page, say so in your reply and give a first name.
