Here is a basic outline on the main things to be experienced on this trip. We've outlined them in the order that they'll happen on the trip. So starting with Jakarta, then to Pangandaran, Yogyakarta, Mt, Rinjani, The Gili Islands and finishing off on Bali! The first half of the trip is adventure, culture heavy (still a few days on the beach though!) The second half is beach, beach, beach!
You'll get a chance to see what a massive Asian city looks like when we start out the trip here in Jakarta.
Not long after arriving in Indo we'll be on our way to the beach for a few days. Starting with Pangandaran. We'll need some time to chill before climbing volcanoes!
Pangandaran has both black and white sand beaches. The snorkelling here is great!
Pangandaran is also a great place for beginners to learn to surf. If you're a bit more experienced there are also more advanced breaks to be found.
The closest thing you'll see to a dinosaur - the Komodo Dragon!
