Classic Holidays in Indonesia

Where to start?
Our 'Classic' Indonesia holiday ideas are designed to give you a taste of this massive country. These suggestions could include beach time on Lombok or orangutan experiences in Kalimantan but focus on the scenic and diverse islands of Java and Bali (where there's still magic to be found).

A Thread of Luxury

A thread of luxury that ties everything together. From beautiful boutique hotels to top-quality transport, to exceptional levels of service - whatever luxury looks like to you… it’s yours

Experience travel is the real deal. Their knowledge of Bali enabled them to put this last-minute trip together for us in just a few days. We had total confidence in their recommendations. The planning worked like clockwork.

- Alison

It was my second holiday with Experience Travel Group. They are knowledgeable about the countries, work hard to meet our needs, provide flexibility and communicate clearly and efficiently. We had a brief trip to Bali and felt transported to another world. We were captivated by the peace and tranquillity of the rice fields, fascinated by the richness of the vegetation and adherence to ancient traditions in the villages we visited.

Travel Guide to Indonesia
Indonesia Guide

Indonesia is an archipelago of over 17,000 islands, and a treasure trove of diversity. Yet many travellers only ever see Bali. Inspired by the Balinese philosophy 'Sekala, Niskala' (The Seen & The Unseen), our guide delves into both the highlights and hidden gems. Experience spiritual rituals in tucked-away temples, unique funeral rites in Sulawesi, and adventures in the 'Ring of Fire'. This guide lays out an unforgettable journey, revealing the magic beyond the usual tourist spots.

We simplify accommodation choices, from beach retreats to boutique hotels, and share must-try dishes and cultural quirks like why Indonesians wear winter coats in summer. When you're ready, chat to our Indonesia experts to tailor your perfect immersive experience through this colossal country.
