Wonderful trip, amazing crew!
Jakaré is a beautiful boat and Audrey and her crew work tirelessly to ensure everyone has a wonderful time. The rooms and en-suites are large with hot showers 🥳. There’s AC at night and during the day fans to keep you cool. I started my day with coffee and toast before the first dive and there was always a pot of fresh coffee waiting for me. Breakfast after the first dive was substantial, choice of eggs, noodles or rice, fresh fruit etc. Lunch was also substantial with 4 large plates of various meat, fish and vegetarian dishes (all were very good). Dinner a 3 course affair with salad, main and dessert. In short the food was plentiful and really good. And there was a delicious cake everyday at 3ish. Diving was in small groups and despite going to Komodo in high season (July) we generally had the dive sites to ourselves, or there was one other group which was easily avoided. The diving was wonderful and Audrey and crew clearly know the dive sites really well. I absolutely loved my time on Jakaré and would definitely go again! If you’re over 60 you’ll need a signed medical form from a hyperbaric doctor.

Excellent and cozy trip
The trip was great and we had fewer than expected divers on the trip which actually made it more cozy and we got to know each other very well. New friends were made!

Jakare’ was a dive trip of a lifetime!
Dive trip of a lifetime following the lead of our crew director, Audrey and dive master, Sahril. They were very well organized getting us ready for up to 30 dives in 12 days. Special highlight was being visited by a whale shark and hanging out with the manta rays. With only 10 passengers total we have tremendous service from all of the crew and food was amazing. Come hungry because the chef serves lots of food all day! Left the boat with new friends and amazing memories.

Jakaré: Such a memorable experience!
We spent the most amazing seven days exploring the magnificent Komodo National Park in Indonesia. We had such a beautiful experience on board - Jakaré crew and cruise director made the entire trip unforgettable! They were fantastic and full of energy and good vibes only. Always smiling, helping and taking care of us. We felt safe and special every single day - they greeted us every time we came back to Jakaré in our speedboats in such a lovely way that makes you feel home and super special. The cruise itinerary is one of a kind and we enjoyed every single day- all activities were superb and well balanced and combined over the days (diving/snorkeling, hiking, kayaking, trekking visiting Komodo dragons), every meal was delicious always made with love, full of Indonesians flavors and exceptional presentations - the chef spoiled us every single day! Bintang and good wine were always available at a very reasonable price. We were so lucky to share the boat with such lovely guests! We shared dives, meals, drinks, conversations and laughs every day on board of such a gorgeous boat- perfectly suited for intimate and small groups. We spent our birthdays and engagement on board and Jakaré made the celebrations truly memorable and full of love. We all became such a big family at the end of the trip while enjoying our last beautiful beachside dinner at sunset on Pulau Anita private island with bioluminescence in the water. Truly! One of a kind experience! The diving/snorkeling experience was exceptional, with such beautiful and massive marine biodiversity. Breathtaking landscapes all around the cruise trip, pristine waters and amazing sandy private beaches. Komodo National Park is indeed one of the best diving destinations ❤️

Spectacular boat and crew
The trip was very nice, the crew very attentive and helpful. The excursions and in general all the activities were great. As there are few travelers, it depends a lot on how they are, and their level of diving, We had very beginner divers and a very closed group (of five people) and little desire to share experiences. But that's a lottery.
