26 Days in Indonesia, incl. Sumatra and Bali
An immersive 26-day Indonesian tour winds through 11 destinations from Medan to Labuan Bajo. Your stay includes 25 nights in varied accommodations from hotels to homestays and boats. Daily meals feature 25 breakfasts, 9 lunches, and 6 dinners. Internal flights to Bali and Padang are included, with costs around $160 per day.
- Days 1-4
Sumatra & Bukit Lawang
Start in Medan and make your way to Bukit Lawang for exploring Gunung Leuser National Park. The 3-hour drive can be rough, so consider motion sickness pills. Pack light clothes that dry quickly in the humid jungle climate. Your best bet for spotting orangutans is heading out around 7 AM. Want a fun way back to town? Try river tubing but keep your valuables safe in waterproof bags.
- Days 5-8
Mentawai Islands & Padang
Book an early morning flight to Padang since routes are limited. The boat ride to Mentawai can get choppy so sit in the middle for a smoother trip. You'll stay in traditional Uma houses with local families who'll show you their culture and foraging practices. Pack modest clothes and bring a headlamp since power can be unreliable.
- Days 9-14
Bali's Cultural Heart
Fly to Bali and start in Canggu. Stay near Batu Bolong for quick beach access. Beat the crowds at Tanah Lot by arriving before 10 AM. For beginner surfers in Kuta, morning low tide offers gentler waves. The Tegalalang rice terraces look their best before 9 AM. Keep a close eye on your belongings at the Monkey Forest - the residents are skilled thieves.
- Days 15-17
Gili Islands
A recent visitor shared: "The boat transfer can be rough - take the fast boat early morning when seas are calmest. Worth it for the crystal clear snorkeling spots and laid-back vibe." The island is car-free so bikes are your best transport option. Pick accommodation on the west side for stunning sunsets.
- Days 18-20
Lombok
The public ferry from Gili T takes about 2 hours. South Lombok offers quieter beaches than Bali and good intermediate surfing spots. Pack sturdy shoes for waterfall hikes as trails get slippery. Morning visits to Sasak villages let you watch traditional weaving in progress.
- Days 21-26
Sumbawa & Komodo
The eastern islands offer more adventure but fewer amenities. Sumbawa's Moyo waterfall is worth the trek. If you're doing a Komodo liveaboard bring ginger tablets for seasickness. You'll need official park guides to see the dragons. Bring enough cash as ATMs are limited here.
22 Day Indonesia Itinerary, incl. Java, Bali and Lombok
A 22-day Indonesian expedition ventures through 15 cities from Jakarta to Sanur. The itinerary features UNESCO sites Borobudur and Prambanan, hiking Mount Bromo, discovering Ubud's cultural heart, and beach time on Gili Trawangan. Package includes 21 breakfasts, 2 lunches, 2 dinners, with varied stays in hotels, homestays, and bungalows.
- Days 1-2
Jakarta & Bandung
Begin in Jakarta, Indonesia's vibrant capital. Visit historic Batavia and Sunda Kelapa Harbor on a guided tour. Take a 3-hour drive to Bandung, surrounded by volcanic peaks and tea plantations. The traditional angklung bamboo orchestra performance offers an authentic local experience.
- Days 3-5

"Watching the sunrise over Mount Bromo was absolutely breathtaking - don't skip the early wake-up call!" one visitor shared.
- Days 8-9
Sanur, Bali

- Days 15-18
Lombok Adventure
Take the 6-hour ferry to Lombok. Experience local life in traditional Sasak villages. Visit Kuta Lombok's beautiful beaches and try surfing if you like. Walk through Tetebatu for views of Mt. Rinjani and local farms. "The countryside trek in Tetebatu showed us a completely different side of Indonesia," one traveler said.
- Days 19-22
Gili Islands & Return to Bali

- Days 1-2
Yogyakarta
Start in Yogyakarta, the cultural center of Java. Visit temples early in the morning to avoid crowds and heat. Travel around the city by becak like the locals do. Stop by Wijilan Street to try traditional gudeg, a young jackfruit curry that's a local specialty.
- Days 3-4
Magelang & Borobudur
Take a 1.5-hour drive to Magelang and visit Candirejo Village to experience authentic Javanese culture. The main attraction is the sunrise view of Borobudur Temple from Setumbu Hill. Bring good shoes since the pre-dawn climb can be slippery, especially during rainy season.
- Days 5-7
Solo to Mount Bromo
Visit Solo's batik workshops before heading to Mount Bromo. You'll need to leave by jeep at 4:30 AM for the sunrise view. Bring warm clothes since temperatures can drop to 10°C. Getting to Bromo's crater requires crossing the 'Sea of Sand' so be ready for some physical activity.
- Days 8-10
Surabaya & Kalibaru
Take some time in Surabaya before taking the 5.5-hour train to Kalibaru. In Kalibaru you can explore spice plantations. One visitor shared: "Walking through the nutmeg and clove gardens was incredible – the scents were so pure and intense, nothing like what we get back home."
- Days 11-12
Banyuwangi & Ijen Crater
The climb to Ijen Crater is steep but rewarding. Bring something to cover your face from sulfur fumes. Be mindful of sulfur miners on the narrow paths and let them pass. You'll see an amazing turquoise crater lake at sunrise.
- Days 13-15
Crossing to Bali
Take the 45-minute morning ferry from Java to Bali's Gilimanuk Harbor. Stay in quiet Pemuteran before moving to busy Seminyak. Try snorkeling at Menjangan Island where the reefs are pristine and crowds are few.
- Days 16-19
Munduk to Kintamani
The highlands offer cooler weather. Visit the UNESCO-listed Jatiluwih rice terraces early when farmers are working. For Mount Batur, choose between hiking or taking a more comfortable jeep tour at sunrise. Visit Banjar Hot Springs in late afternoon when it's less busy.
- Days 20-23
Ubud & Candi Dasa
Finish your trip in cultural Ubud and coastal Candi Dasa. Book cooking classes well ahead since popular ones fill up fast. Go to Blue Lagoon near Candi Dasa early for the best snorkeling conditions before afternoon winds pick up.
