Holidays to explore tropical rainforests, snorkel in coral reefs, visit local tribes and villages with a fascinating culture, trek scenic volcanoes, take a small ship cruise, visit temples, discover cute Orangutans and ancient Komodo dragons and relax on deserted beaches. Indonesia has it all.

Indonesia gained independence from the Dutch in 1942, and has never looked back. The world’s 4th most populous country with over 17,000 islands (most uninhabited) offers diverse cultures and religions, tribal villages, stunning scenery of volcanoes and mountains, rice paddles and rainforest, much indigenous wildlife, and of course, world class beaches and coral reefs. 

Bali is most peoples first time destination in Indonesia. Stay away from the few "party" resorts to discover local people's rich culture and traditions. Explore Ubud archaeological site and the coral reefs off the remote West Bali National Park. There is also a wide choice of quiet beach resorts with beautiful local architecture and excellent service.

Java is the commercial and political heart of Indonesia, yet most islands have preserved their own identity, with ancient tribes still thriving today in islands like Sumba. Admire the world’s largest buddhist temple at Borobudur and travel north to Sumatra for an adventure in the rainforest at Gunung Leuser National Park.

Flores is the gateway to Komodo National Park. Take a boat trip from Laboan Bajo to observe the ‘larger than life’ Komodo Dragon. On Flores, don’t miss the Kelimutu Volcano with its thee coloured craters.

For wildlife enthusiasts, venture to Kalimantan on a river cruise in search of orang-utans and monkeys, visiting local tribes in their traditional longhouses.

The archipelago is a joy to explore on an authentic cruise from North Sulawesi, sailing from Bitung in the north of Sulawesi to the Komodo Islands.
