In Reply to: Cruise to Komodo posted by Hasid on Friday, 24. August 2007 at 09:47 Bali Time:
I did a cruise to Komodo, but with Perama, and I only went in one direction (3 days, getting off in Flores). So it was a bit different to your cruise, but it was really excellent - beautiful scenery along the whole way, lots of good swimming and some good stops at deserted islands, waterfalls etc. Reaching Komodo was really exciting. We got off the boat and trekked around the island for maybe an hour. We saw a few Komodos, some quite bit. People that did the return journey back to Bali though said that they saw more Komodos and better wildlife in Rinca (maybe you are going there too if you are going in both directions?).
One tip that I would give you - if you get sea sick, take some sea sicknesss tablets! It can get very rough in this stretch of water.
Have a brilliant time.
