- ASameena C· September 18th, 2019Overall trip was great,good mix of hiking, seeing animals & experiencing local culture. Would like another 2 days in Lake Toba so we could relax and see more of the area. The transport could have been better as the long journeys were cramped.

Asked on January 28th, 2025We're interested in booking the 10 day Sumatra Discovery tour in May but wondered whether there's a possibility of adding on a short additional tour out of Medan either before or after the main tour starts. Do you have any suggestions?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written January 2025
While we're unable to assist with organizing additional day tours out of Medan, you're welcome to arrange these independently. However, please note that during the Sumatra Adventure trip itself, there likely won't be sufficient time to include a day trip due to the tour's itinerary and schedule. Therefore, to explore additional tours, we recommend planning them either by arriving in Medan earlier than your trip's start date or staying on after your trip concludes.

Donald
Asked on September 11th, 2024I would like you to design and organize a trip for January 2025 to Sumatra, including destinations such as Mentawai Island, Bukittinggi, and the Aral Valley. Please create an itinerary where I can stay for several days in the same location, rather than moving from place to place every day. I would like the trip to include activities such as trekking, diving, and other physical, body-centered experiences.
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written September 2024
We do have a tailor made team that is able to put together customer itineraries however they do need a minimum group size of 4 or more people. Will this be a group or just yourself traveling?

Colin
