Perfect boat, friendly crew, incredible diving
Absolutely perfect liveaboard experience. We loved the boat - beautiful design, spacious rooms, great mix of indoor and outdoor spaces. The crew was really friendly and we felt like friends by the end of the week. The diving was second to none. We also appreciated that the trip had some on-land excursions: a sunrise hike and a short trek to see some Komodo Dragons. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and I'm so glad we did it.

Komodo national park is a treasurer of Indonesia I hope more people choose to experience. Turtles, mantas, sharks, coral garden, crabs, lobsters, you will see it all here! Thank you again to all the crew for a fantastic 8 day trip!

Perfect combination of diving, land excursions and heartwarming hospitality
Did the 7N/8D around Komodo, and had the best time ever. Good communication and helpful tips before, the most heartwarming welcome on the boat, spacious rooms with comfortable beds, and a crew that never stopped helping any way they could. The food was amazing, and there was lots of it. The days were spent diving in underwater paradise, encountering mantas, sharks, turtles, fish in every colour, and even a dugong. The detailed briefings before every dive always made me feel safe and well prepared. The rented equipment was excellent, and made diving hassle-free. I also appreciated the land excursions to see the dragons, Pink Beach and some sunset hikes. My divemaster Ray was excellent at spotting everything from mantas to tiny shrimps - he was clear on instructions and made sure we all had safe and fun dives! And then the cruise director - Jello. The trip definitely would not have been the same without him! Again, safety always being the main focus - but also the one singing us songs, making us laugh, telling stories, and just being the heart and soul of Komodo Sea Dragon. Loved every minute of this trip!

Awesome for snorkelers and divers both
The entire trip was absolutely superb. My wife loved the diving and i loved the snorkeling. We both saw some amazing sights, 4 baby sharks resting/hiding in a small cave soon to grow up and take their place as apex reef predators, turtles which lingered and were not afraid of snorkelers, and the highlight for both of us being the manta rays. Seeing a huge adult manta ray glide past on my right not 10 metres away at snorkeling height was a Moment of Awe. The crew on the boat were all superb, addressing queries quickly as well as anticipating our needs. And safety always first.

The best liveaboard I have ever been on!
The diving is was beautiful, the food was absolutely amazing. The crew were just the best. Real luxury! Always offered tea or coffee, even between dives. Someone always opening doors and helping you with whatever you needed. I will definitely book this boat again next time I come to Komodo. If you want a real luxury dive experience, look no where else. If Jello and his team are on board, you are going to have the best diving you can get in Indonesia.

The crew were just amazing. The dive guides were some of the most experienced I have ever met, with over 20 years experience between them (Jello, Engel and Arjun). The safety and the diving were top notch, before you realised you needed help, someone was there already sorting you out!

Amazing Dive spots - okay liveaboard
Diving in Komodo is beautiful with amazing corals, makro and big fish. Life on the boat is okay but lacking the familiar liveaboard atmosphere. The guides were okay, if rather distant and not really engaging with guests. Currents and drop off points should be better checked before making guests jump, we had to fight strong currents several times over 20m to get to the reef. Considering the price, we would chose a different liveaboard next time.

If you like diving, abundant sea life, dragons, good food and the nicest people then this is the trip gor you!
Just a fantastic trip. The location is amazing. The sea life and macro is stunning. The Komodo dragons and shore trips were wonderful. The knowledge and experience of the dive guides was impressive. Our guide Benny was so patient and could find the coolest macro life. Other groups had the same experience with Jello and Elfin. But what stands out the most is the warmth, kindness and joy in the crew. From the galley staff to the boat crew to the dive staff - they made the experience special. A heartfelt thank you to Jello, Benny, Allan, Bonny, the chef, Captain Aziz and the entire crew.

An unforgettable experience on the Komodo Dragon!
I had a wonderful time on a dive safari aboard the beautiful, comfortable, and cozy Komodo Dragon. This was only my second liveaboard, and as a relatively inexperienced diver traveling with a group of female friends, I was naturally worried that our skills might not be enough for Komodo’s waters. However, the crew and dive guides went above and beyond to make us feel safe while ensuring we enjoyed the incredible marine life. Our guide, Fandi, was very attentive; he showed us so many interesting creatures and paid close attention to our gear. All our dives—even those with currents—were comfortable and smooth. We were lucky enough to see mantas at almost every site. The coral gardens are breathtaking; I’ve never seen such a variety of healthy, pristine corals, even in the Maldives or the Red Sea. The boat itself is spacious and clean. The cabins have everything you need and are cleaned daily—and I have to say, the shampoo and conditioner provided were the best I’ve ever used! The chefs also deserve a special mention. Every day we enjoyed a fresh, delicious à la carte menu; we definitely never went hungry! On our first day, Jello gave a very thorough briefing covering everything from boat layout and daily routines to emergency procedures and safety. It was the most detailed briefing I’ve ever heard. We were quite lucky to have only five people on board. Our boat was one of the first boats allowed out of port after a month-long break due to bad weather, so we had almost every dive site to ourselves—an incredible stroke of luck since famous spots are usually crowded. The weather was perfect for all five days: not a single cloud or drop of rain. A huge thank you to the team. I highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for great diving in a fun, safe, and pleasant atmosphere!

Stable boat, comfortable and clean!
This is my second liveaboard, condition of the boat was excellent. This boat was very stable, honestly didn't feel it rock that much even tho the waves and currents were insane in komodo. didn't have sea legs after getting of the boat at all! Rooms were pretty, clean and spacious. There's house keeping everyday and a balcony to hang your wet clothes in the room. Toilets work well, shower has intermittent water supply, but not too bad, essentially if you waited 5mins after the first person showers, there's a good flow. Food was good, crew was friendly and helpful at all times, even when some guests were annoying to them haha. loadsa singing and dancing. Activities were packed, you'll never be bored!
