Indonesia is a thrilling realm of over 17,000 islands spreading across Southeast Asia from the Malay Peninsula to the border of Papua New Guinea. With these islands comes a dizzying range of languages, landscapes and rich cultural experiences. If it’s discovery and adventure you’re after, welcome to the ultimate destination.

INDONESIAWITH ETG

INDONESIA<span class="indend">WITH ETG</span>

An intoxicating land of seemingly endless exploration, Indonesia’s islands have something for everyone, whether you’re a thrill seeker, culture connoisseur or nature lover. The scenery is gorgeous with a stunningly beautiful archipelago and an amazing array of differing holiday experiences.

To name a few of the well-known islands, we have the ever-popular Bali, the even prettier Lombok, volcano-covered Java and the horse-filled grasslands of Sumba. Lesser known islands such as Sulawesi and Raja Ampat offer some of the best diving and snorkelling in the world, while you’ll feel on the edge of the world exploring the Maluku Islands. Of course, with over 17,000 islands, we simply can’t list them all here, but our knowledge is extensive if you’d like to call us for a chat.

Popular holidays in Indonesia

Where do you start with popular holidays in Indonesia? From beach holidays in Bali and Lombok to a thrilling close encounter with wildlife in Sulawesi, or cultural explorations in Java, there is an incredible variety of experiences on offer.

Most people would at least consider Bali and Java as part of their trip. Still, Lombok, Sulawesi, Sumatra, The Maluku Islands, Sumba, Flores and West Papua and Sumbawa all have their various charms. Parts of your trip will likely cover wildlife, volcanic scenery and a glorious beach – as you’ll never be far away from these. But there’s so much more to Indonesia.

Even on popular islands like Bali, we know where to find pockets of untouched and authentic beauty.

Volcanic views and evocative temples are two hallmarks of an Indonesian holiday; the 'Stairway to Heaven' encompasses both.

Popular hotels in Indonesia

Indonesia was the birthplace of the boutique hotel, and it still has some of the best in the world. More recently, this style has spread to islands such as Java and Flores too – with a similar understated hospitable charm but in the local vernacular.

On islands where tourism is less developed, there is the occasional gem and some options which ‘do a job’. Experience Travel Group can help ensure you find those gems and that you know what to expect if you need to stay in a place with less than stellar options when the location or experience is essential to your holiday.

What you are unlikely to find on an ETG holiday though, is bland or corporate. We feature Indonesian hotels that speak to the destination and that are part of the local community.

Once in a lifetime experiences in Indonesia

There are myriad exceptional once-in-a-lifetime experiences to be found on the seventeen thousand islands of Indonesia. From volcano hiking in Bali to meeting orangutans in Sumatra or Kalimantan (Kalimantan is Indonesian Borneo, the rest is either Malaysia or Brunei!) this is a mind-blowing archipelago.

Some of the cities such as Jakarta are worth a visit, though our holidays tend to focus on experiences away from it all, or towns with bags of history and character.

Indonesian experiences include some of the world’s best underwater exploration, discovering an astonishing array of cultures and a good chunk of the world’s flora and fauna.
