Trek through central Sulawesi and Torajan villages. Take in the beautiful landscape of rice terraces, cacao plantations and bamboo forests as you walk, and chat with Torajan locals along the way.

Step inside Toraja’s Tongkonan houses, with boat-shaped roofs and intricate carvings, then sit down to a traditional home-cooked meal.

Explore Rantepao, where you’ll see some of the largest Torajan burial sites and caves in Indonesia. Meet members of the local tribe and gain an insight into their cultural views on life, death, family and ancestral connections.

Take a boat tour on the Danau Tempe Lake and discover the life of those who call the floating village home.

The process from finding the tour we wanted to take to getting set up for the tour was an easy process. The other reviews we saw gave us the security of using their website to book our trip. The only item we missed which would have given a 5* was the trip did not include see the Alps up close or a train trip. Well maybe next time there may be one and we would definitely take that trip.
