Green Tourism Village: Komodo Village in Labuan Bajo

Komodo Village is included in one of the Green Tourism Village by the Ministry of Tourism and Economy Creative of the Republic of Indonesia. Green Tourism Village applies the concept of nature, economy, and socio-cultural sustainability and preservation. This means that the various tours offered do not damage the environment and will improve the welfare of the local community.

Here, you can get to know more about the culture, traditions, and activities of the locals. So not only you’ll see nature and beach tourism, but also learn something new — culturally, by visiting Komodo Village.

Furthermore, this village also still maintains its local wisdom. No wonder many foreign tourists come to visit this village to witness the people living side by side with Komodo dragons. Excited to come and experience it yourself?

The uniqueness doesn’t stop there, because you’ll find more interesting things to see, such as goats roaming in residential areas. These goats are deliberately used as food for the Komodo dragons who come to the settlement so that they won’t eat humans.

However, the electricity in this village is still very limited. It’ll only turn on at 05.00 PM – 06.00 AM Central Indonesia Time, and the rest of the day will be a blackout. Even so, it doesn’t reduce the feasibility of Komodo Village to be in your itinerary when you go to Labuan Bajo.
