Private Day Trip Diving in Komodo
Private day trip dives give you a dedicated guide and sometimes a dedicated boat, offering maximum flexibility and personalised attention.
Private Dive Options
| Option | What You Get | Price Premium |
|---|
| Private guide on shared boat | Your own dedicated guide while sharing the boat with other divers | 30–50% above standard price |
| Private speedboat charter | Dedicated speedboat for your group, custom itinerary, flexible schedule | IDR 8,000,000–15,000,000+ per day ($500–1,000+) |
| Private traditional boat charter | Dedicated traditional boat for your group | IDR 5,000,000–10,000,000 per day ($300–650) |
Benefits of Private Diving
- Custom itinerary: Choose your sites based on your interests rather than the group consensus
- Flexible timing: Start earlier, stay longer at sites you love, adjust on the fly
- Photography friendly: No time pressure from other group members; your guide assists with subject finding
- Pace matching: Dive at your own speed without adjusting to faster or slower divers
When Private Makes Sense
- Groups of 4+ divers (cost per person becomes comparable to standard rates)
- Serious underwater photographers who need extended time at specific subjects
- Divers with very specific site requests that may not align with the day's standard itinerary
- Couples or honeymoon trips wanting an intimate experience
