Part of the fun of travelling in Indonesia is island hopping a little.
Move between islands and the country starts to reveal its many shades. Bali brims with beauty (yep, really, when you benefit from the ETG edge), Java brings scale and history, with vast temple complexes and volcanic landscapes and Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo) shifts the focus to rainforest and wildlife.
Lovely Lombok, wild Komodo or magical Sumba introduce a stronger sense of island life, where traditions and daily rhythms remain closely tied to the sea.
What matters most isn’t ticking islands off a list, but experiencing how different they feel side by side. Belief systems change. Customs vary. Architecture evolves. The contrasts are what give Indonesia its character.

What makes our multi-island Indonesia holidays different
A multi-island holiday with Experience Travel Group isn’t about seeing as much as possible. It’s about choosing combinations that make sense together.
We design our itineraries so moving between islands feels straightforward and purposeful, with clear reasoning behind each transition. Time is built in to settle into each place, rather than constantly packing up and pressing on.
The result is a holiday that feels calm and coherent, with space to notice the contrasts between islands as they unfold, rather than letting them blur together.

Frequently Asked Questions about Multi-Island Trips in Indonesia
Most itineraries combine two or three islands, occasionally more where it genuinely enhances the experience.
But we’re selective on purpose. The emphasis is on depth and contrast, not covering ground for the sake of it.
By pacing your holiday carefully. We always allow enough time in each place to properly settle in, and reset and recharge after any long journeys.
Movement between islands should feel fluid, not like a constant change of base.
Not at all. Most of our travellers come to us with a general idea of what they’re after rather than a set route through Indonesia. (In fact, some only realise Indonesia is the perfect fit once we’ve talked it through.)
Our specialists will then suggest the islands that pair beautifully together, based on how you like to travel and what excites you most.
Yes, definitely. When they’re paced properly, multi-island trips in Indonesia are genuinely enjoyable for both.
For couples, the pleasure often comes from contrast and immersion: moving between islands with distinct cultures, staying in lovely hotels, and having time to go on memorable adventures or simply relax, together.
For families, it’s about variety and shared experiences that keep everyone engaged. We balance discovery and downtime, with manageable travel days so the trip feels fun and energising rather than exhausting.
