Bajawa-Riung PDF Print E-mail
This trip is 262 km and takes a bit less then 10 hours depending on which form of transportation you take. Most people visit this region with a hired bemo or car. This costs about 175.000 Rp per day starting from Labuan Bajo (9/98). The usual trip takes about 3 or 4 days. You can also go to Bajawa by bus and start renting there. Stephane De Becker recommended Micheal, a severely disabled boy who has a friend called Harry who has a Kijang. Everybody knows Michael, so he's a good guide.

If you want to do a luxury cruise to Komodo, you could check Spice Island Cruises. They have a 3-day cruise leaving Bali on Friday and a 4 -day tour leaving Bali on Monday. The lowest fare for a 3-day cruise is 495 US$ a head, but they have "stand-by" fares of 347 US$. Still very expensive, but it must be great I suppose.

There are direct buses from Ende to Labuan Bajo.At Losmen Islas (Ende) you can charter their minibus to Labuan for 400.000 Rp. We also met some people who did the Maumere-Labuan Bajo stretch by hired car with driver. This trip can take 2 to 3 days and typically includes a visit to Moni and Bajawa (for the 3 days tour). Price is around 500.000 Rp (5/98).There is 1 ferry a day departing from Sumbawa in the morning and arriving around 5 pm "depending on the current" and vice versa. This ferry stops in Komodo, but not every day, check it out first.Update 9/98: However, 1 of the 2 ferries has broken down, so there's only 1 ferry who has to do the 2 crossings on its own.

The Maluku chapter was written by David Sills who went to Ambon, Banda and Seram from 6 till 18 December 1998. If anyone knows a better travelguide on the web about the Mollucas, please let me know. I'm pretty sure there isn't any.
