Wild islands, ancient wonders and dragons (yes really)

Indonesia: one country, a thousand adventures

Indonesia is an archipelago of wild beauty and thrilling contrasts, where adventure awaits across thousands of islands.

From up-close wildlife encounters to jaw-dropping volcanic hikes, this is a destination made for explorers. Walk among Komodo dragons in Komodo National Park (yes, they’re as massive as they sound), climb Java’s famous Gunung Bromo for a sunrise you’ll never forget, or witness the otherworldly blue flames of Kawah Ijen after dark.

On Sumba, time slows down among megalithic tombstones and the colourful chaos of the traditional Pasola Festival. For divers, Raja Ampat is the holy grail – with whale sharks, manta rays and coral reefs straight out of a dream.

Prefer a gentler pace? Unwind at serene Danau Toba – the world’s largest crater lake – and soak up the warm hospitality of the Batak people.

With dramatic landscapes, rich culture and endless possibilities, Indonesia is an explorer’s dream come true.

Let’s make it happen – chat to our Indonesia specialists and start planning today.

Flight time

The flight from Auckland to Indonesia is around 14 hours with a stopover. But we promise you it's worth it.

Best time to go

Indonesia is a year-round destination, but for the best weather, visit during the dry season from April to October. Shoulder seasons (March–June, September–November) offer smaller crowds.

Time difference

Indonesia is 4–6 hours behind New Zealand depending on daylight saving in NZ and regional variation across the country.

My passion for travel begun when living in London. I was constantly booking getaways to explore all UK and Europe have to offer and I have not stopped exploring since!

Coming home, I have been privileged to take many long breaks to explore different parts of the world. - Some highlights include USA and Tahiti. 

Now having a family, I see travel in different light and really enjoy slowing down and embracing every moment. 

Travel is for everyone; the world has so much to offer!

I joined the travel industry just over 6 years ago and have helped many people book their dream holidays, I can't wait to help you with yours!

Experiencing travel through the eyes of my daughter, has given me a whole new perspective and thirst for travel. 

It enables me to slow my pace, look around and just enjoy being in the moment as she interacts with local people. 

It brings back that feeling I had when I first travelled overseas, and I feel so grateful to be able to experience something so meaningful and life changing with my daughter.
