‘Here be dragons’ goes the old cartographers’ adage, and in Indonesia there are, with forked tongues, venomous saliva and scaly bodies. Tracking Komodo dragons in the national park of the same name is just one of the experiences this vast country offers on this two-week trip through Sumatra, Bali and Komodo. We explore the jungles around Bukit Lawang looking for orangutans and various monkeys, take to the seas as we snorkel with a myriad of colourful fish and possibly swim with manta rays and uncover the culture and natural beauty of central Bali.
  • Journey through Indonesia’s diverse animal habitats, searching for unforgettable wildlife moments
  • Join expert local guides to track wild orangutans in Gunung Leuser National Park
  • Seek prehistoric-looking dragons on the islands of Komodo and the lesser-visited Rinca
  • Snorkel at Manta Point, a hotspot for giant manta rays and turtles
  • Visit Bali to discover the artistic hub of Ubud

We spend 11 nights in hotels and two nights on the boat in Komodo National Park.



The nights on the boat are idyllic as we anchor in quiet bays but please be advised the accommodation is basic. Accommodation is a mixture of bunks in cabins and mattresses on deck with shared bathrooms. The reason we spend two nights on the boat is to maximise wildlife viewing around the islands.



Worth knowing



The hotel in Bukit Lawang only has cold water, but as outside temperatures are hot this is refreshing.

Single supplements are available (on request) for 11 nights only. The single supplement does not apply for the two nights spent on the boat in Komodo National Park. Please advise at the time of booking if you would like to request a single supplement.
