Indonesia, 15 Days · Private tour
Bali, Papua and Raja Ampat
Explore the most uncharted side of Indonesia
Way beyond the island of Bali, the best-known in the whole of Indonesia, there are hidden corners that seem to be plucked from another universe. Who hasn't heard of Papua? An unexplored and inhospitable land for the vast majority, we'd love you to come and explore it with us. This is one of the places in the world where you expect something to "click" in your mind and open up a whole new field of knowledge. And the best thing is that after this adventure, you'll end up at one of the world's last remaining paradises: the Raja Ampat Islands, the perfect place for diving enthusiasts.
You now know that you want to go, but will you want to return home?

Private Tours. Enjoy a personalized vacation
What are the advantages?
- Choose who you travel with: Travel alone, as a couple or as a group of up to 9 people and they will be the only ones you share the experience with (it’s you, traveling with your own). In many tours the price per person is reduced the more you are!
- Choose your departure date: Most private tours have daily departures. Don’t you conform to the journey, let the journey conform to you.
- Organized and flexible: Everything is organized but when traveling privately, you don’t depend on strict schedules, providing agility and flexibility in visits.
- Customization and Attention: Being private, both guides and drivers give all their care and attention to you.
- Travel without worry: You have the advantages of a trip on your own but with the peace of mind that everything has been designed so you don’t miss anything. Your only concern is to enjoy the experience to the fullest.

Important remarks
- Triple rooms in Indonesia are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.
- The baggage allowance on domestic flights of most airlines in India is usually 15 kg per person, so lower than on international flights. Please take account of this when packing your bags.
- Please check with your international vaccination centre about the recommended healthcare measures in Indonesia.
- Indonesia is a Muslim country and the month of Ramadan is of major significance to its residents. During Ramadan, entertainment and alcohol will be restricted in most of the country. The sale of alcohol will be restricted in many places, although some establishments will offer alcohol for sale to tourists. During this period, local businesses may also have shorter opening hours.
- Depending on the return flight, the trip may be one day longer.
- To reconfirm services at the destination, please send us your passport details within 24 hours of booking.
- Check-in time at the hotel on the day of arrival depends on each establishment, but in no case will it be before 3:00 p.m., unless otherwise indicated.
- Accommodation in Kilise is basic: mattress, pillow and blankets. We recommend you bring your own sleeping bag. It's also advisable to leave your luggage in Baliem Pilamo and pack a rucksack with the necessary supplies for one night and two days.
- In Raja Ampat, the staff assisting you will be from the property itself.
- The order of the itinerary may be altered for logistical reasons, without prior notice, but no scheduled trips will be cancelled (except in the case that adverse weather conditions prevent its realisation).
- A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.
- Prices are calculated based on admission fees to the sights as of the date of publication. If there is an increase in these prices, you will be promptly informed.
- If you are a person with reduced mobility, please contact us to confirm the suitability of the trip.
- Consult the necessary documentation to enter the destinations visited and for transit in the countries where air stopovers are made.
