Having A Solo Flores Komodo Tour

A solo Flores Komodo tour won’t be as scary as you imagine it to be

And you have probably heard about the dragons, which are three times longer than human and unsurprisingly capable of eating a man. 

Rest assured, it won’t be as scary as you might imagine it to be. Flores and its rawness offers nothing but exciting adventure you won’t ever get in cities. You might feel uncomfortable at first, but it will quickly disappear as soon as you find a good hotel (or hostel) and reputable Komodo liveaboard boat for the sailing trip.
