I have been on a tour to see the Komodo Dragon. You can book it online. Look up "Komodo Dragon Travel Agent". We departed from Bali for Komodo Island which was about a 1 1/2 hour flight. We then had a 2 hour boat trip to the Island (which included lunch). We went on a beautiful trek through rain forests and over mountain ranges. We saw wild buffalo, dear, pigs and chickens along the way. Our guide, Theodorus, knew everything about the habitat which made the experience so educational. After about an hour we found the dragon in a clearing, sunning himself. It was so exciting. We took pictures, rested and observed him. It was amazing! Theodorus was an expert on the dragon. He also understood every movement the dragon made and told us why. The whole experience was exciting, invigorating, educational and breathtaking. I recommend, that anyone interested in a once in a lifetime experience should take this trip.
