A look inside your itinerary
Illustrative excerpt only. This is not a customer report, a confirmed route or a booking recommendation for your own dates.
Example brief: two adults and a five-year-old child, seven days including arrival and departure in Sorong, snorkeling and nature, with a relaxed pace.
- 01Arrive in Sorong; check the onward connection or stay overnight.
- 02Transfer to one central island base; settle in and check the house reef with your host.
- 03Arrange a short guided snorkeling outing suited to the child’s swimming ability.
- 04A nearby village visit, with access and return transport agreed first.
- 05Keep a flexible day for a sheltered outing or rest.
- 06Return to Sorong; allow for boat delays before the flight day.
- 07Airport transfer and departure, matched to airline check-in.
The base decision
Compare one central Raja Ampat base before adding a second stay. Keep the return-to-Sorong arrangement separate and match it to the actual flight time. Explain what each extra move adds in time and cost.
The daily rhythm
Days 1 and 7: protect arrival and departure time in Sorong. Days 2–5: stay in one island base, alternating short guided snorkeling or shore activities with rest. Day 6: provisionally return to Sorong before the flight day. Every boat leg remains subject to the actual flight time and confirmed transfer; replace exposed water outings with a shore or rest day when conditions are unsuitable.
The cost picture
Budget demonstration only, using invented inputs: accommodation €600 + transfers €200 + activities €150 + contingency €100 = €1,050 subtotal. Flights, meals and visitor fees are excluded. These are not destination prices or a quote; your plan needs dated estimates and provider confirmations.
Automated checks and previews are starting points. The paid service adds a personal review and a plan prepared for your group; a preview is not a confirmed booking.
Start my requestWhat your fee covers
One travel group, one trip of up to 14 days and one consolidated revision requested within 7 days of delivery. Longer trips or substantial changes need a separate quote. Flights, stays, boats, activities and entry fees are paid separately to providers.
Delivery and review
Before you pay, RAI confirms the scope and delivery date in writing. Preparation starts after your complete travel profile and payment are confirmed. Bookings, live availability checks and ongoing concierge support are outside this package unless agreed separately.
How payment works
Send your request at no charge. After RAI confirms the scope and price, use the PayPal payment option below. RAI verifies payment manually before the paid service begins; submitting a form does not confirm a paid order.
Pay with PayPalPay for your confirmed itinerary
Use this only after RAI has confirmed your request, scope and price. Pay for the itinerary as Goods and Services.
On PayPal, check the recipient, the EUR amount and any fees before you approve payment.
PayPal opens separately. Include your RAI request reference in the payment note if available, then contact RAI. RAI verifies the transaction in PayPal before starting the paid service; the website does not automatically confirm payment or unlock reports.
