A Komodo National Park 3 day 2 night tour is a liveaboard or land-and-boat adventure exploring Komodo, Rinca, Padar, Pink Beach and Manta Point from Labuan Bajo. Operated by Komodo Luxury since 2015, this Komodo National Park tour package starts from USD 215 per person, sharing.
Three days and two nights is the sweet spot for a Komodo National Park tour. A single day-trip forces you to race between islands and miss the golden light that makes Padar and Pink Beach unforgettable. A 3D2N package gives you unhurried mornings on the water, two sunrises inside the park, and enough time to reach the far corners that day-trippers never see. As a Komodo National Park tour, ticket and permit specialist — part of Juara Holding Group and recognised with the TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice award 2025 and 2026(4.9/5 from 1,500+ verified guests across Google and TripAdvisor) — Komodo Luxury has arranged this exact itinerary for thousands of international travellers since 2015.
What the 3 Day 2 Night Komodo National Park Tour Includes
The package is built around the classic Labuan Bajo departure. You fly into Komodo Airport (LBJ) — roughly one hour from Bali — board your boat at the harbour, and spend the next three days threading through the archipelago. Whether you choose a shared open-trip cabin boat or a private phinisi, the route is designed to cover the park’s signature stops without doubling back.
A typical 3D2N Komodo National Park tour covers:
- Padar Island — the three-bay viewpoint, best climbed at sunrise before the heat and the crowds arrive.
- Komodo Island (Loh Liang ranger station) — a guided ranger walk to see wild Komodo dragons in their natural habitat.
- Rinca Island (Loh Buaya ranger station) — often quieter than Komodo Island, with a high chance of dragon sightings along the boardwalk trails.
- Pink Beach — one of the world’s rare rose-coloured beaches, ideal for snorkelling over shallow coral.
- Manta Point — a cleaning station where reef manta rays glide past year-round, with peak numbers in manta season.
- Kalong (Flying Fox) Island — thousands of fruit bats streaming across the sky at dusk, usually enjoyed from the deck on the first evening.
Meals prepared on board, cabin or deck accommodation for two nights, snorkelling gear, an English-speaking guide, and boat transfers are standard inclusions on most 3D2N tours. The Komodo National Park entrance fee of IDR 650,000 per person (about USD 40), paid at the park, is usually quoted separately — we explain exactly what is and isn’t bundled before you book.

Sample 3 Day 2 Night Itinerary
Day 1 — Labuan Bajo, Kelor, Kalong
Arrive at LBJ, transfer to the harbour and set sail early afternoon. Warm up with a snorkel at a nearby reef, hike a small island for panoramic views, then anchor near Kalong Island to watch thousands of flying foxes cross the sunset sky. Dinner and your first night are spent on board.
Day 2 — Padar, Pink Beach, Komodo Island
A pre-dawn start for the Padar Island viewpoint at sunrise — the highlight of the entire trip. After breakfast, snorkel at Pink Beach, then land at Komodo Island for a ranger-led dragon walk at Loh Liang. More snorkelling and swimming fill the afternoon before a second night at anchor.
Day 3 — Manta Point, Rinca, return
Drift-snorkel with reef manta rays at Manta Point, then visit Rinca Island’s Loh Buaya station for a final chance to see Komodo dragons. Cruise back to Labuan Bajo by early afternoon, in good time for onward flights. For more route options, browse our Komodo National Park itineraries.
Best Time to Take the 3D2N Tour
The dry season, April to November, is the best window for a Komodo National Park tour, with calm seas and reliable sunshine. July to September is peak season — book early. These months also overlap with the best manta sightings and, in July and August, the Komodo dragon mating season, when dragons are more active and visible. Plan your dates with our best time to visit Komodo National Park guide.
How to Get There
Every 3D2N tour begins in Labuan Bajo. Most international guests fly Bali (Denpasar) to Labuan Bajo — around one hour — then meet the boat at the harbour. Coming straight from Bali? Our Komodo National Park tours from Bali page covers flights, timing and package options, and the how to get to Komodo National Park guide walks through every route in detail.
Rules, Safety and What to Bring
Komodo National Park is a UNESCO-protected reserve with living wild dragons, so ranger rules exist for your safety: stay with your guide, keep distance from the dragons, and never wander off the marked trails. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, motion-sickness tablets if you’re sensitive, and a dry bag for electronics. Read the full Komodo National Park rules and safety briefing before you travel. Komodo Luxury has run this region since 2015 and pairs every trip with experienced local crew — the same standards you’ll find across Komodo Luxury.
