Amazing bro im was watching video in this chanel support your youtube the besth explore island indonesia ever wish more subcriber in this chanel bro hehe
Very nice, guys. Short and sweet and to the point -- and honest. Refreshing on social media, where so many people have a stake in whatever they're "reviewing." I'm sorry the trip was kind of a bust, but I appreciate you sharing your opinion with everyone. Cheers from Virginia!
As you mentioned, 1 day is not enough, as the distances are quite far between places if you have a slow boat. We did a 2 nights 3 days and hired a fisherman's boat. We paid 7 million RPS all in , with accomodation in the lodge of the fisherman, on the main Komodo island. It was very simple, the food was local food, but the family was very welcoming, and the fisherman took us to less crowded places . There are actually several pink beaches and the one he took us was empty. These islands are incredibly beautiful, and deserve more than a day tour.
@@MarkWebster1 my wife knew a fisherman, and he was available when we were in LB. not a luxurious trip at all, but it was just the two of us on the boat, and the fisherman.
Awesome video guys! I really did like it but, just to clarify you CANNOT sedate Komodo dragons or any other reptile due to the fact that they are cold blooded (which doesn't mean their blood is actually cold; it means their body temperature depends on the temperature of their surroundings) this causes their organs to change the transfer of energy from really fast to really slow. With that being said reptiles have to stay immobile to keep as much energy to themselves as possible and only use most of their energy when food is on the table. To keep a Komodo that calm all you have to do is #1 feed him.... Komodos can spend MONTHS without eating and this is true for all reptiles as well. If those people feed the Komodo more often than that the Komodo will have no need to spend as much energy therefore becoming more "lazy" because the food comes to him not him to the food. Another thing you said is "Komodo are supposed to be fast" that is true ONLY to when food is involved and they must get to it other than that like I said earlier they must contain that energy. With that being said the Komodo is not sedated BUT desensitized from people and food. Great video again
This is really interesting and helpful as there isn't much information usually about them or their treatment for tourism. Thank you for all the information, glad you liked the video🙂
I spent a month in Indonesia in March 2019 and my one big regret was not spending the money to go to Komodo Island on a 3 day tour from Bali. But after seeing your video now I'm happy I didn't go. Regret is gone. Thank you!
The komodo dragon you saw probably wasn't sedated. They rarely chase people so that's why you can see them that close, or maybe they do when the victim is alone, I met one further in and it was also this chill. Oh yeah, think things through about the planning. Discuss with the tour people on the timing as well. You two might've payed into the tour when they know full well that the timing was horrible.
We were therein 2018 as we took a cruise trip from Singapore to Sidney, Australia. On our way, Komodo dragon Island was one of our stops. It was an incredible experience. Those dragons were amazing to watch; we saw a bunch of them. Snorkling at the Pink Beach afterward was also a highlight.
In Komodo Island you can find / See these animals: 1) Komodo Dragon 2) Manta Ray Fish ( there is snorkking /Diving spot called manta point) 3) Deer 4) Bats 5) Dolphin ( with some lucks) You can also find/interact/see these other animals in their natural habitat: 1) Orang Utan ( Kalimantan/ Tanjung Puting) 2) Whale Shark (Derawan Island) 3) White tip Shark ( Raja Ampat Island)
Unfortunately we didn't see any Manta Ray's because of the season, but we did see a few dolphins. We would love to explore the other islands you've mentioned !
I think the best place for snorkeling is in Bunaken ,North Sulawesi (Celebes) ..... especially around July ,that's when the fishes from the North meets those from the South ,creating some new fish species......... Going to the North ,you can also see Sangihe region ,where there is a volcanic mountain under the sea ,causing heat to nearby waters........
video -> timestamp: 3:32--3:37 - a deer comes into scene. picks up and eats the only yellow leaf outta thousands, that was yellow. why? why the yellow leaf deer friend? please do tell us why? ua-cam.com/video/7ZClaLAkOUk/v-deo.html
Hi there! Love the video. In terms of booking your day trip, do you mind sharing what agency you went with? Or if it's difficult to find somewhere to book? I'm planning a trip and I heard not to book in advance, just to book once in Labuan Bajo but I like to be prepared. Are there lots of day trip options around? Thanks!
Hello! Thank you for watching, we forgot to get the name of our agency because we booked with our homestay (silly mistake) but if you head onto the main road theres plenty of agencies where you can just walk in and ask about prices and tours. It is much cheaper if you book once you arrive! Not sure what's happening with komodo trips at the moment however, as the government were planning to stop tours to see komodos, so you might need to check that first.
@@TravelsonToast Thanks for the info! I read an article saying they cancelled the closing of Komodo Island since the tourists aren't the threat to the island, but I will look into it some more as the months go on
I’ve been there and I think it’s an amazing experience. Based on what Komodo Ranger told me, komodo is a pretty lazy animal in general, that’s why the moved slow. They’ll move fast if they have prey to feast and the best way to save yourself from them is to go to the ocean because they’re just too lazy to swim lol.
I'm sorry but my Komodo trip was the best trip of my life. Totally different from yours. I can't even recognize. This video shows a totally different Komodo island. Maybe because I went with Le Pirate tours (4 days). I repeat: Komodo island with Le pirate INSANE. Before making this kind of reviews, please do some research online about everything. This is what you get when you don't research first. stay safe.
Enjoyed this video for the authenticity and how you guys clearly understand how wild animals should and shouldnt live, its horrible to hear that the komodo dragon was most likely sedated just to please tourists. First video ive watched of yours but going to sub and watch more as i love how you guys appreciate animals and nature for what theyre supposed to be, instead of being used to make money etc
Peace from Bengkulu (the home of two largest flowers in the world i.e. Kibut/male icon and Rafflesia/female icon). Anyone who has seen this video and wants to see the flowers, you guys can stay freely in my home in Bengkulu, Indonesia (1 hour flight from Jakarta).
Sorry to say, but no wonder you didn't have something too special there, because it seems you hadn't asked the local people or someone who knows better the trip there. I spent almost the same amount of money, but I got so many activities you not mentioned in your video, like Pink beach, Manta point, bats afternoon sightseeing, BatuCermin Cave, traditional village, the Peak, harbor market...More info and plans, so you can have more with your money, bro.....Good luck
Our local friend booked it for us but it was very last minute so maybe not as organised as we hoped, maybe next time we will go on a longer trip! Thanks for watching
Hello I come from Indonesia very interesting about this discussion about komodo island in Indonesia I hope you love Indonesia and its beautiful natural wealth
it was for sure not on drugs you really need to learn this animals behavour if it runs it uses soo much energy. its gets tired really fast learn this animal and you will know
These dinosaurs where able to survive when all others where not ,because they can feed and survive off dead and rotting animals. Much like crocodiles and alligators which is why I believe “disease” killed the dinosaurs

This is natural habitat and not a zoo. Be sure to get information when and how to maximize experience so you wont be disappointed.

That sounds like a great experience, yes we definitely think a longer trip is needed to do it justice, it's a shame it wasnt in our budget
Sounds awesome. How did you find this tour option?

Wonderful Indonesia...
Indonesia is composed of some 17.500 islands...
You must explore it...

It is caused by lack of plans. Evetything must be planned accordingly to maximize your trip. It is not a zoo or theme park, it is a natural habitat.

great video guys , very informative and nice to see someone being honest about things they see .
Thank you and thank you for watching!

you guys are so unlucky to not see the island in its full green glory.
Yeah it's a shame, we've seen what it looks like in photos and videos, definitely better to go then.
These dinosaurs where able to survive when all others where not ,because they can feed and survive off dead and rotting animals. Much like crocodiles and alligators which is why I believe “disease” killed the dinosaurs
I hear this story from many other people also. We decided to skip. Thanks for sharing your exgerience
Mana woy indonesia
Wooow ❤️
Omg
But British find boat to komodo national park leave United Kingdom empty British
That dad must have spent months saving to take his daughter to see the komdos. How disappointing
You have to go back to united Kingdom
