Mount Bromo’s smoldering crater at sunrise, wandering through Bali’s neatly terraced rice paddies, searching for dragons in Komodo National Park… On a tailor-made vacation to Indonesia with Audley, you’ll see the highlights — and much more — your way. We’ll design your ideal trip with you, paying close attention to your interests, your travel style and your budget. Our Indonesia specialists know the country inside out and can lead you to experiences you won’t find in a guidebook.
Wreck-dive through turtle-infested waters, or snorkel past shoals of glistening butterflyfish. Watch nervously as a villager precariously shimmies up a tree to harvest coconuts. Sip on Bali’s Robusta coffee-blend, grown in rich, volcanic soils. Outsmart opportunist macaque monkeys, and listen out for the orangutan’s deep, rumbling call ripple through Sumatra’s pristine jungle. Be captivated by a kecak dance (rhythmic chanting) at the world’s largest temple.
Gold-leaf temples anchored on clifftops besieged by thrashing waves. Lombok’s empty white-sand beaches. Forest-smothered volcanic peaks. What excites you? Travel at your own pace, in your own style, with the confidence that we’ll show you the best options, wherever you go.
