Review Body: Everything was so good. We were picked up promptly from our hotel, the boat was beautiful and the dorm was really spacious. Food was delicious although vegetarian options were a little lacking (my friend is vege but the chef did make her an omelette for each meal that there weren't many vegetarian options). There was enough activities each day to make it feel different enough. I think it was good value for money and I'm so glad that we decided to go. Also, if you book through Seek Sophie you don't have to pay the 700k national park fee, although we did have to pay 300k each for fuel which I don't think was mentioned anywhere. Overall it was a really great trip.

Review Body: We loved everything about it. The trip was truly amazing. The crew was fantastic they made everything so easy for us. The food, the cleaning, the activities… they took care of everything so we were able to enjoy Komodo for the fullest. We would highly recommend doing this trip. The activities are great, it’s a full program but also enough time to relax. The snorkeling experience is amazing. They also took us to really nice spots for the most beautiful sunsets. The food was amazing, credits to the chef!! The komodo trip was 3 days but for us it could last waaaaay longer, we miss it already. Thank you so muuuuchhhh for this expirience. Xxx

Review Body: Truly enjoyed this wonderful 3D2N boat trip with the Andalucia 3. We booked the premium suite with ocean view - including a small bathroom. Having this “private” space onboard is something I would highly recommend. It’s nice to have some privacy and space to change/refresh between the different activities. Something that really stood out here was the high quality of the food. The options were diverse, a combination of local, international, and fish/meat/vega cuisines. Furthermore, the staff was helpful and attentive during the trip which was a big plus!

Review Body: Nice boat, nice group, nice trip, good food. We really enjoyed it. Only the superior cabin was much smaller than it appears on the fotos. There are two larger and two smaller superior rooms, make sure to get the larger one. In the small one there is hardly any space to stand for two people and no room for your luggage. And even if the program says „there is no fuel charge“, they WILL charge you extra.

Review Body: The Trip is truly amazing and the staff is outstanding! The boat is new and the cabins nice. (Andalucia 3) BUT the Premier ocean 4 cabin is located directly above the generator which is running at night. (Main deck) Even though the staff tried everything to make it better nothing worked. It is like sleeping on a construction site beside a hammering machine. Even the shared cabins had less noise. So if you want to make the most out of it make sure not to get that cabin. Otherwise food, activities etc are amaizing and worth every penny

Review Body: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WAUW! De absolute highlight van onze reis! Wat een onvergetelijke ervaring was onze boottrip langs de Komodo-eilanden. Vanaf het allereerste moment tot de laatste seconde zijn we compleet in de watten gelegd door de fantastische crew. Als je twijfelt om deze trip te boeken: doe het direct, het is elke cent meer dan waard! Professionaliteit en veiligheid voorop: De gidsen zijn ontzettend professioneel. Ze brachten ons naar de allermooiste snorkelspots en wisten precies waar we het water in konden gaan. Veiligheid stond echt centraal; ze gaven telkens perfect aan waar het veilig was en hielden iedereen goed in de gaten. We hebben ons geen moment onveilig gevoeld. Comfort aan boord: De boot zelf was echt top. Wij verbleven in de kamer met een eigen badkamer, wat heerlijk comfortabel en helemaal prima was. De airco werkte perfect, wat na een warme dag vol activiteiten echt een luxe was. Culinair genieten: Het lekkerste eten van onze hele reis! Echt een gigantische pluim voor de crew in de keuken. We hebben tijdens onze héle reis door Indonesië nergens zo lekker gegeten als op deze boot! Het hield gewoon niet op: we kregen een heerlijk ontbijt, lunch, uitgebreide snacks en een fantastisch avondeten. Tussendoor lag er altijd vers fruit klaar en de koelkast was constant gevuld met drankjes die je gewoon mocht pakken. We zijn niks tekortgekomen! Een eigen topfotograaf mee: Wat een geniale toevoeging was de fotograaf! Hij ging bij elke stop met ons mee en zijn enthousiasme werkte ontzettend aanstekelijk. Dankzij zijn geweldige drone- en GoPro-shots hoefden we zelf onze telefoons helemaal niet mee te nemen en konden we optimaal genieten. Achteraf kregen we alle beelden in superhoge kwaliteit via Google Drive opgestuurd. Een herinnering voor het leven! Perfect programma en topservice: Het programma zat fantastisch in elkaar. De activiteiten waren super afwisselend en de planning was perfect: we kregen overal lang genoeg de tijd om rond te kijken, maar stonden ook nooit te lang stil. De crew stond echt 24/7 voor ons klaar met de grootste glimlach. Kortom: het was in één woord fantastisch. Heel erg bedankt aan het hele team voor deze droomervaring!

Review Body: I love how flexible the trip was during the 3d2n. It was free and easy for all involved which makes each and every experience worth while to enjoy. The closeness we have gotten to the crew gives us a sense of calmness knowing we are in great hands with such fantastic crew. We also have to give tons of credit to our tour guide (Erik) for ensuring our safety as well as our needs to our trip. Being able to change to different situations in a blink of an eye shows the professionalism of the tour guide and the rest of the crew. Food on board was fantastic! Compliments to the chef! The travel with the vessel was smooth regardless of the waters being choppy. Biggest credit to the captain! And the last person to have made available for us to look back at to this trip is the camera man. He is at every corner to capture everything, from the sky to the sea. He is always ready to capture the perfect moments and will have random ideas for us to pose for different scenery. All in all, it is definitely a cruise to come back again!

Review Body: We had a wonderful time with Andalucia at the Komodo islands. The whole crew was very friendly and took good care of us. They (esp Emil our guide) were eager to share with you the beautiful nature Komodo has to offer. The trip was packed with activities but there were also lots of time to just chill on the deck. The scenery is stunning. Thank you to our photographer Ali for documenting it and took many pictures of us. They are memories that’ll last forever. It’s sad to see quite a lot of trash on the sea though. Hopefully tourists would act responsibly and the govt would take action to protect this incredibly biodiverse treasure. Food on board was delicious and sumptuous. You don’t really need to bring snacks. We stayed in the upper deck ocean view room. It was decent and cosy, though you can’t expect a hotel room standard. It’s small but good enough for a 3d2n trip. It’s a once in a lifetime experience! Would definitely recommend Andalucia charter to friends.

Review Body: One of the highlights was snorkeling in the crystal-clear waters near Padar Island. The coral reefs were teeming with life, and we encountered colorful fish, turtles, and even manta rays gliding gracefully beneath us. The crew on board was knowledgeable about the marine life and ensured our safety during all water activities. Sailing from island to island was a serene experience, with the gentle sea breeze and panoramic views of the rugged coastlines. We visited secluded beaches where we could relax, swim, and enjoy picnics with freshly prepared meals by the boat’s chef. The sunsets from the deck of the boat were mesmerizing, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink.thanks Marco and the team

Review Body: The best 3 days. After 6 months travelling solo, the crew and guests I shared the experience with, made the entire tour unforgettable. The views, the sunrise on Padar island and the unbelievable sunsets each night. I didn't want the trip to end. Dancing and Karaoke with the crew on the last night will be a memory I will remember forever. The entire team were amazing, so accommodating, fun and professional. Food was amazing for every meal. I will recommend this tour to everyone.

Special thanks to Eric who was also great guide and chef who made us food some amazing meals 3 times a day!

Review Body: Amazing experience. Booked the downstairs private room, definitely small but that was expected. Food was amazing and the crew was wonderful. There are a million other boats with the exact same itinerary so don't expect private excursions. That said, we swam with turtles, a manta ray and black tipped reef sharks. Also, saw Komodo Dragons at the park and flying foxes at dusk. Not too bad.

Review Body: Besides the beautiful views that the Komodo islands have to offer, Andalucia’s crew (shoutout to our guide Emil and the rest of the team!) was another huge reason why we left this trip with our hearts full :) We also enjoyed the meals onboard - there was a good variety of dishes, including seafood, proteins and vegetables.
