Komodo Open Trip 3D2N Aboard Yumana Liveaboard 2026

A Komodo open trip 3D2N is a shared three-day, two-night liveaboard sailing from Labuan Bajo through Komodo National Park. Aboard Yumana, our 32-metre phinisi, shared air-conditioned cabins start from USD 330 per person, with weekend departures every week of 2026. And when our cabins sell out, sister departures across the Komodo Luxury group start from USD 300, or from USD 220 on weekdays.

What Does a Typical 3D2N Komodo Open Trip Itinerary from Labuan Bajo Look Like?

Our sample route condenses the best of the national park into three days. Day one begins with a 09:00 pick-up from your hotel or the airport in Labuan Bajo, followed by a short sail to Kelor Island for the first ridge trek and photo stop. After lunch on board we snorkel the reef at Manjarite, then anchor off Kalong Island, where thousands of flying foxes stream out of the mangroves at sunset while dinner is served on deck.

Day two is the headline reel. We wake you before dawn for the trek up Padar Island’s saddle viewpoint, then serve breakfast on board while sailing to Pink Beach. Late morning brings the ranger-guided dragon trek on Komodo Island itself, followed by lunch, snorkelling with mantas at Manta Point and a final swim at the Taka Makassar sandbar before sunset on the boat. Day three closes gently: sunrise breakfast, a last snorkel at Sebayur Island, and the sail home to Labuan Bajo around midday. Destinations may shift with weather and sea conditions — our crew adjusts the order for your safety and comfort, and guests are asked to follow the guide’s instructions throughout the trip.

What Is Included in a 3 Days 2 Nights Komodo Open Trip?

Every Yumana share trip is sold per person, per cabin, with a two-person minimum per booking. All eight cabins are air-conditioned with ensuite bathrooms, from the porthole-view Superior cabins to the Royal Suite with its private balcony, sea view and jacuzzi. Your 3D2N rate covers:

• Accommodation on board for the full voyage
• All meals, plus mineral water, coffee and tea throughout the trip
• An English-speaking guide, snorkelling gear and life vests
• Photo and video documentation using drone, GoPro and mirrorless cameras (raw footage)
• Hotel or airport pick-up and drop-off within the Labuan Bajo mainland area near the harbour

Not included are crew gratuities, flights, alcohol and personal snacks — and, importantly, the Komodo National Park entrance fee. Budget USD 40 per person for the park fee, paid once per trip, and collected separately because ticket prices follow prevailing government regulations at the time of travel.

How Much Should I Budget for a Komodo Open Trip 3D2N in 2026 Including Fees?

Here is our published per-person pricing for the 3D2N open trip, alongside the wider share-cabin options available across our group when you want a different budget band or departure day:

Extra persons in a Yumana cabin are USD 290 each. For a realistic all-in figure, add the USD 40 park fee — once per trip, never per day — to any row above. A Superior cabin therefore lands around USD 370 before gratuities and drinks, while a weekday group departure keeps a budget Komodo open trip under USD 300 all-in. Travellers comparing a cheap Komodo open trip 3D2N against a private boat should note our published charter alternative: the whole of Yumana for 3D2N starts at USD 6,950 for up to 12 guests, which beats per-person pricing once your group fills six or more cabins.

Which Komodo Open Trip Has the Best Reviews and Value for Money?

Value on a share trip comes down to who operates the boat, and here we are direct about our parentage. Yumana sails within the fleet of Komodo Luxury (komodoluxury.com), the owner-operator group based in Labuan Bajo whose range runs from the 78-metre Komodo Signature and 66-metre Komodo Prestige superyachts down through VIP phinisi such as Ayvara, Malca, Catnazse, Naturalia, LASHA, Pinta and Neptune, and which also handles official charter marketing for Lamima and Prana by Atzaro in Raja Ampat. You can see the whole range on komodoluxury.com. The group is a TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice award winner. For guests, that scale means real accountability: the same standards, crew training and safety systems behind the flagships stand behind every USD 330 Superior cabin on our weekend sailings.

Can You Find a Komodo Open Trip with Weekday Departures and Shared Cabins?

Yumana runs a fixed weekend rhythm: Friday-to-Sunday departures every week of 2026, from the 2–4 January sailing through to 25–27 December. That schedule suits working travellers who want a Labuan Bajo open trip 3D2N without taking leave — but it also means two things. First, peak weekends sell out early, especially July and August. Second, weekday-only travellers need another boat. In both cases we point guests to the group’s 3D2N Komodo open trip schedule, which runs share-cabin departures across multiple vessels from USD 300, and from USD 220 on weekdays. Solo travellers benefit most from that flexibility, since Yumana bookings carry a two-person minimum while group share cabins pair you with other guests. The route, the dragons and the mantas are the same; only the hull changes.

When does Yumana Liveaboard depart in 2026?

Yumana sails every weekend of 2026 on a Friday-to-Sunday pattern, from 2–4 January through 25–27 December. Weekday travellers, or guests who find a weekend sold out, can join the Komodo Luxury group’s 3D2N open-trip departures on sister vessels.

Can solo travellers join a Komodo open trip 3D2N?

Yes. Yumana bookings carry a two-person minimum, so solo travellers are best served by the group’s share-cabin open-trip departures from USD 300 (weekday from USD 220), where you share an air-conditioned cabin with other guests.

Can I charter Yumana privately instead of joining the open trip?

Yes. Published private-trip rates start at USD 6,950 for a 3D2N charter with up to 12 guests, rising for larger groups and longer 4D3N routes — worthwhile once your party fills most of the eight cabins.
