Description of Indonesia holiday, Isle of the Gods
There’s a reason why an Indonesia holiday evokes the Isle of the Gods moniker and not just because of the idyllic tropical scenes that will no doubt create the backdrop to this fantastic two weeks away.
Spending half your time on Bali and the other half on Lombok allows you to compare the landscapes, beaches and religious traditions found on both islands with natural warmth and shimmering clear shallows certain to get snorkellers and divers eager with anticipation.
Aside from days at the beach, cycling and hiking both offer alternatives for lovers of the natural world with trips to Mount Batur on Bali combining with ferry rides to Gili Air, off Lombok, certain to unlock the essence of an Indonesia holiday on the Isle of the Gods.

Holiday information
Small group tour, ideal for solos & couples:
Small group travel is not large group travel scaled down. It is modeled on independent travel – but with the advantage of a group leader to take care of the itinerary, accommodation and tickets, and dealing with the language. It’s easy to tick off the big sights independently – but finding those one-off experiences, local festivals, travelling markets and secret viewpoints is almost impossible for someone without the insider knowledge gained from years in the field. For those with limited time, a small group tour will save valuable time in planning, and on holiday.

Planet
During our trip, our group leader and local guides take active steps to ensure our groups behave in an environmentally responsible manner, such as sticking to established trails, not leaving anything behind and not removing any plants in rural areas. They are also always eager to share information about their country and culture, and help you break down barriers in your interactions with local people.
We take time out to see some local songket weavers in Sideman and travel by horsedrawn carts to visit some small handicraft villages near Tetebatu.
As a company we aim to contribute to the environmental preservation of the destinations we visit and to reduce any negative impacts our operations may have. This translates to actions such as using local transport where safe to do so in order to reduce emissions, observing all national and marine park visitor rules and operating a ‘take in, take back out’ waste management system, to name but a few examples. Through our inhouse foundation we also invest money into environmental initiatives that benefit the planet, including restoring kelp forests to help reverse the effects of global warming and protecting endangered species such as sea turtles and elephants.

Just by visiting Indonesia you are making a huge difference to so many people. The tourism industry has suffered significantly in recent years and any interest from travellers provides a welcome boost to the local economy.
