Indonesia, the world’s fourth most populous country is sprawled across more than 17,000 islands with over 300 different ethnicities and dialects. From the western tip of Sumatra to the eastern edge of Papua- it is a land of so many cultures, customs, animals, plants, sights, artworks and foods that it seems like 100 countries melted into one. As diverse as its population and landscapes is the accessibility and infrastructure of the different regions. While Bali alone offers way over a hundred 5-star hotels, there are islands that don’t have any real tourist facilities at all and offer an ultimate adventure experience.

Reasons to visit Indonesia

Unique Culture

The art and culture of Indonesia has been shaped around its hundreds of ethnic groups, each with cultural differences that have shifted over the centuries. Modern Indonesian culture is a fusion of cultural aspects from Arabic, Chinese, Malay and European sources.

Brilliant Flavours

Indonesia has around 5,350 traditional recipes, with 30 of them considered the most important. Indonesia’s cuisine may include rice, noodle and soup dishes in modest local eateries to street-side snacks and top-dollar plates.

Impressive Wildlife

Orangutans in the wild are a wonder to behold. Bornean orangutans live on the island of Borneo and their slightly longer-haired, paler cousins, the Sumatran Orangutan, on the island of Sumatra.

Serenity in Bali

Bali, the famed Island of the Gods, with its varied landscape of hills and mountains, rugged coastlines and sandy beaches, lush rice terraces and barren volcanic hillsides all providing a picturesque backdrop to its colourful, deeply spiritual and unique culture, stakes a serious claim to be paradise on earth.
