Idyllic Indonesia
Consisting of over 17,000 islands, Indonesia is the largest island archipelago In the world. Breathtaking mountains, the highest number of active volcanoes on earth, richly diverse cultures, stunning pink beaches with world-class diving, spices... and Dragons! From its capital, Jakarta, to the quiet Banda Islands where Nutmeg was first discovered, this is what Indonesia is made of.
The dizzying megalopolis of Jakarta has unlimited things to do, from shopping malls to diverse cultural activities. Home to over 10 million people, Jakarta is a fascinating starting point for your journey where the colonial-era architecture of Indonesia’s quieter, humble neighbourhoods rubs shoulders with soaring modern skyscrapers. In some parts of Jakarta where traffic is banned, pop-up vendors appear, and crowds of people fill the streets.
Spiritual Mosques and Thundering Lava
Be mesmerized by the Istiqlal Mosque, the largest in Southeast Asia, with its beauty and spiritual significance. Take a lift to the top of the National Monument of Indonesia, Monas, which stands in the Merdeka Square, offering stunning views across Jakarta. Step into the past in the Old Town known as Kota Tua, to discover the fascinating colonial era. Soak up the diversity of Indonesia in Taman Mini Indonesian Park, stroll through the lush greenery for a glimpse into the diverse styles and cultures of the country, where you discover intricately designed replicas of traditional houses from all over the islands.
After the hustle and bustle of the capital, travel to Yogyakarta, which is considered the cultural heartland of Java. Listen to ‘gamelan’, the most recognised music in Java in the Kraton, a large palace complex, and get up close to the local farmers in paddy fields, in the fertile region of Java. Surround yourself with stunning views of greenery and volcanoes at the stunning temple Borobudur, climb the 1200-year-old steps, and discover the many sculptures and statues. For a surreal experience, hike to the crater's edge of Indonesia’s iconic volcano Mount Bromo, and peek inside, to experience its pungent fumes and thundering lava. Afterward, unwind in the tranquil small town of Pangandaran, located on a long peninsula with beaches on either side and a national park on its very tip.
