Amazing trip and excellent guide Fano and crew. The crew took amazing care of us ensuring we got the best photos walked up the 800 steps in Padar to take breath taking photos and had the skills to make these lasting memories go digital! Always chirpy and obliging we couldn’t have asked for more. They also strived to find the mantarays and giant turtles so we got the full deal and were thoroughly happy! The famous Warran met us and prior to the trip was always super prompt in replying to all our questions queries. They are an honest operator and made our trip incredible. Would thoroughly recommend them and go back to explore further. Only little feedback is that lunch was okish but hey at least no one got sick! But would come back and do more for sure! 👍 great experience

Very good crew. All were funny and the Gide was very good in the English language. Also the crew was fast in locating the manta rays. They took good care in all passengers, food drinks etc. The crew and the experience made our day.

Loved the boat, the crew, and the itinerary. A lot of thought and care goes into these trips and we had such a wonderful time being so well looked after. I really appreciated the forward thinking and proactive approach of our excellent cruise director, particularly adjusting our dragon plans so we weren’t competing with heaps of crowds. Would 10/10 recommend to anyone.

Helpful Questions

What are some unique and off-the-beaten-path destinations in Indonesia to visit by boat?
For a memorable off-the-beaten-path experience, consider venturing to the remote Raja Ampat Islands, known for their exceptional diving spots and stunning karst landscapes. Alternatively, explore the pristine Wakatobi National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site celebrated for its vibrant coral reefs and diverse marine life.
How can I immerse myself in the local culture during a sightseeing boat cruise?
Engage with the local crew and ask questions about their traditions, customs, and daily lives. Visit traditional villages along the coastline and interact with the friendly locals, experiencing their unique way of life. Remember to be respectful and mindful of cultural differences.
What are some expert photography tips for capturing the best shots during a sightseeing boat cruise?
Utilize the Golden Hour, the period just after sunrise and before sunset, for optimal lighting conditions. Position yourself strategically to avoid reflections and capture clear shots of the surrounding scenery. Use a polarizing filter to reduce glare and enhance colors. Experiment with different angles and perspectives to add interest and depth to your photographs.
Is it possible to combine a sightseeing boat cruise with other activities?
Absolutely! Many boat cruises offer opportunities to combine sightseeing with activities such as snorkeling, diving, fishing, and hiking. This allows you to explore the diverse marine life, encounter local wildlife, and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the surroundings.
How can I choose the best sightseeing boat cruise for my needs?
Consider the duration, itinerary, and amenities offered by different cruises. Select a cruise that aligns with your interests and preferences. Read reviews from previous travelers to gain insights into their experiences and recommendations. Contact the tour operator directly to inquire about specific details and ensure the cruise meets your expectations.
