This full-day tour covers four iconic destinations:
Traditional Weaving House (Rumah Tenun)
Goa Rangko (Hidden Cave Pool)
Goa Batu Cermin (Mirror Stone Cave)
Bukit Sylvia (Sunset Viewpoint)
Whether you are visiting before or after your Komodo boat trip, or you prefer staying on land, this tour provides a complete mainland experience.
Duration: Approximately 8–10 hours
Tour Type: Private or small group
Departure: Daily from Labuan Bajo
Pick at your hotel at 9am and your journey begins with a visit to a traditional weaving house in Labuan Bajo, where you can witness the authentic process of Flores ikat weaving. The art of weaving has been passed down for generations in Manggarai culture, and each pattern tells a symbolic story rooted in local beliefs and traditions.
During your visit, you will observe how natural dyes are prepared, how threads are carefully arranged, and how intricate motifs are woven by hand. This experience offers a deeper cultural understanding of Flores beyond its natural attractions.
You may also purchase authentic handmade textiles directly from local artisans, supporting community-based tourism and sustainable livelihoods.
Next, continue your adventure to Goa Rangko, a stunning limestone cave located approximately 30–45 minutes from Labuan Bajo by car and short boat transfer. Inside the cave, you will find a crystal-clear natural saltwater pool illuminated by sunlight filtering through the cave opening.
The turquoise water creates a magical atmosphere, making it one of the most photogenic spots in Flores. Visitors can swim inside the cave, relax in the calm water, and capture extraordinary photos in this hidden paradise.
The best time to visit Goa Rangko is late morning to early afternoon when sunlight enters directly through the cave opening, enhancing the vibrant blue color of the water.
Goa Batu Cermin, also known as Mirror Stone Cave, is one of Labuan Bajo’s most famous mainland attractions. This cave is known for its reflective stone surfaces that shimmer when exposed to sunlight, creating a mirror-like effect.
Formed millions of years ago when Flores was still underwater, the cave contains fossilized marine life embedded within its limestone walls. A local guide will explain the geological history and unique formations found inside the cave.
The visit involves light trekking and short cave exploration, making it suitable for most travelers, including families.
End your day with a breathtaking panoramic sunset at Bukit Sylvia, one of the best viewpoints in Labuan Bajo. From the top of the hill, you can enjoy sweeping views of the harbor, surrounding islands, and rolling savanna hills.
The short trek to the summit takes approximately 10–15 minutes and is relatively easy. As the sun sets over the Flores Sea, the sky transforms into shades of orange, pink, and purple, creating the perfect closing moment for your land tour.
Bukit Sylvia is particularly popular among photographers and couples seeking a romantic sunset atmosphere.
