Unforgetable trip in Komodo!
Sokaraja was amazing! Such a great experience in Komodo. The staff were exceptional, the food was amazing and the DM's were very experienced with a lot of knowledge about each dive site and the area. The boat was more traditional but good value for money. There were a lot of staff around, putting all our gear together for each dive, which was very helpful. Komodo is just so beautiful and the on-land excursions were great. Highly recommend!

We will be back!
You can't really be brief, but these 5 days and 4 nights on the Sokaraja dive boat were the best days of my life.The crew is fantastic, helpful, kind and competent.No matter what you had, wishes and comments would be respected.The food is outstanding!? Something for everyone! Whether vegan, vegetarian, or not. Everything tasted fresh and delicious.The dive guides were also very knowledgeable, friendly and funny. You really felt at home in the 5 days.The equipment is well maintained and always in tact, you couldn't complain about anything.In the various dive sites, one would always be taken care of and reefs and fish would be respected and not endangered.The boat is in top condition, toilets are clean and sleeping facilities, such as chill areas, are available.You could write a lot more, but see for yourself!!

Amazing value for money
had a great few days aboard Sokaraja. The dive guides and boat crew were brilliant: professional and friendly. The boat itself is pretty spacious with plenty of chill out areas which makes it good value for money. And of course the diving is world class and I enjoyed the mixture of land based activities on the itinerary. Thank you Sokaraja!
