Couples, active trips and snorkelling first

Couples. Two people can take a private cabin from IDR 3,600,000 (≈ USD 221) per person on Bombana 1, or the bathtub master cabin on Bombana 2. Start with the couples page, which sets out each cabin and each fare for two people on a small shared boat.

Active trips. Kelor, Padar and Komodo Island are three hikes in 3 days, with a paddle board and a canoe on Bombana 2. The active trips page explains the pre-dawn start on day 2 and about who finds it too much.

Snorkelling. Five water stops, masks included, fins not promised. The snorkelling page explains Manta Point, who it suits and what the odds on mantas really are.

These three fill the cabins first, because the route rewards them most. The rest of the page covers everyone else.

Groups, families and reunions

Friends who want a boat to themselves choose the whole boat. Bombana 1 takes up to 15 guests and Bombana 2 up to 13, and prices fall per head as the party grows. The small groups page shows how, band by band, and says when the open trip is the better buy.

Families travel on the open trip or the whole boat. Children aged 0 to 2 travel free, and from age 3 the full price applies. The families page lists which cabins take an extra bed, and what the early starts mean for small children.

Reunions and birthdays work on either boat. A party of 12 fits either boat. Both list a karaoke set. The reunion page sets out what a day with a dozen friends looks like on board.

Budget, solo and team trips

Budget. The lowest seat is IDR 2,950,000 (≈ USD 181), a bed in Sharing Cabin 4 on Bombana 1. The cost page adds the park ticket, flights, hotel nights and tips, line by line, so you see the whole bill.

Solo. A bed in a sharing cabin is the solo seat, shared with other guests. The solo travellers page covers sharing cabins and what we confirm before you pay.

Teams. A company can take the whole boat for 3 days at sea, with a karaoke set and a table. Ask about the team offsite setup first.

All trip types

The grid lists every trip type we have a page for, each with a line on who it suits and a link. Read it as a menu, not a quiz. Pick the card closest to your party and follow the link, then come back if the first guess was wrong. Each page says who the trip is not for, as well as who it is for,, with the current fares.

If none fits, message us the group size and the date. The route stays the same for everyone, and the choice of boat and cabin does the rest. Ask us. For the whole boat, see the charter page.

FAQ

Is a Bombana trip right for first-time sailors?

Yes, with one caveat. You do no sailing yourself, the crew does it, and the stops sit between islands. The caveat is the sea: small boats move more, and July and August are windier. Our seasickness guide covers what to eat and where to sit. If you are unsure, tell us your month.

Who is the 3-day trip not right for?

Anyone who needs a private cabin as a single traveller, or a certain dragon or manta. It is also hard on people who can't manage a pre-dawn start on day 2 or a steep climb at Padar. A calmer stay on land will suit those guests better.

Can a group of friends take a whole boat?

Yes. Bombana 1 takes up to 15 guests and Bombana 2 up to 13. A 3-day charter starts at IDR 39,000,000 (≈ USD 2,393) on Bombana 1 and IDR 55,750,000 (≈ USD 3,420) on Bombana 2. The guide and the photo documentation are quoted separately, in writing, on request.

Are children welcome on the open trip?

Yes. Children aged 0 to 2 travel free with a parent or guardian, and from age 3 the full price applies. Some private cabins list an extra bed. Tell us the ages when you write and we'll match the cabin.
