Review Body: I had a fantastic experience trip in Komodo National Park and felt important to leave this review for everyone’s reference. The trip for 2D1N Komodo Kayaking and this was my very first time joining a kayak trip. Booking was really easy online only 5 minutes to confirm it. Komodo Kayaking guidance and instruction were supportive and helpful throughout the trip, as I'm the first timer for kayaking, you know la. Hahaha 😁 but so much fun. We were lucky with the weather and the water was calm which made me feel more excited to paddle it. We went to Bidadari Island - Rangko Cave - Kaaba Island - Rinca Island - Manta Point & Sebayur Island. The experience out on the water was lovely. It was a wonderful trip. This dragon year is going to work perfectly. Thank you so much Komodo Kayaking!

Review Body: We had an awesome day out with Jho exploring the islands around Labuan Bajo. It was a relaxed trip and gave us the opportunity to see and learn more about the area. We went snorkeling and saw lots of fish and even a baby reef shark. Jho has yummy food with him and took great care of us. We highly recommend a trip with Komodo Kayaking!

Review Body: Amazing boat tour of the coral triangle and Komodo National Park. These guys are the best. We saw thousands of fish, live coral, sea turtles, Komodo dragons…the list goes on. The guides are knowledgeable and friendly. And the food on board the boat was fantastic. The best I’ve had. Highly recommend!
