Bolt Komodo Onto a Bali Trip

Most people arrive in Bali first and add Komodo later. It works — provided you give it three days rather than two, and book the boat before the flights.

Three Ways to Slot It In

Counted door to door from Bali, not from Labuan Bajo.

Making It Fit Without Breaking It

The two-day version fails for predictable reasons.

Do this

  • Fly out on the earliest departure of the day
  • Sleep in Labuan Bajo the night before a boat day
  • Leave a spare morning before any onward international flight
  • Book the boat first, then the flights around it

Avoid this

  • Landing in Labuan Bajo after lunch on day one
  • Flying back to Bali the same evening as a boat day
  • Connecting straight onto a long-haul flight
  • Assuming two days is enough because the flight is short
