I learned to love Sumatra from our Guide Ilham. He was the best. I consider Indonesia (Sumatra) one of my favorite countries now.

Great overall

The Sumatra tour was very interesting and allowed us to see some parts of Sumatra that are untouched by tourism. Our tour guide Ilham was amazing, so knowledgable, friendly and fun-could not have asked for more from him. A large amount of the tour was spent travelling between places with multiple days being only travel days (no chill time like the itinerary stated) so I feel like this could have been made more clear in the information prior to booking. However overall a great experience with many once in a life time opportunities. Thanks again Ilham, you were fab!!

Best trip

I did the Sumatra 9 day trip and it was AMAZING!! We were so lucky to have Illham as our guide, he was so helpful, always made sure we were okay and was so much fun to be around! The tour takes you to see so many interesting places, the orangutans were incredible and Ricky’s beach house was very beautiful.
