Operator

Lamborajo I, II and III are operated as a charter by a dedicated Labuan Bajo charter desk — running a nine-vessel value fleet in Komodo National Park, sailing from Labuan Bajo since 2015, with expertise in value-fleet charters for groups.

Each Lamborajo vessel is owner-held. The charter desk inspects it against a published 12-point vessel quality standard before dispatch, contracts directly with guests, and carries responsibility for the voyage. Booking through the operator’s own desk means verified availability and official rates.
