Variant A — Bali first
Boat nights 5–9
Land, Ubud, move to a hotel near the airport, then fly DPS–SOQ via Makassar with a Sorong night before boarding.
Best when you arrive jet-lagged and want the recovery up front
Packages
Three Bali nights, one Sorong buffer, five on the boat. Enough to reach Wayag without rushing the way back.

The split
Nine nights, in three blocks that each do one job.
Order
The same ten days, in two orders. Which one suits depends on your international flight.
Reach
Five nights buys the north. Misool needs a longer trip.
For Ubud and the coast: Bali first gives two Ubud nights then one on the coast; Raja Ampat first reverses it, with a final coast night before flying home.
Bands
The boat is chartered whole, so the band is set by the vessel, not by headcount.
Park tariff and regency levy are the same in every band, charged per foreign guest.
