Flores & Komodo private tours in Indonesia
Extraordinary and fascinating Indonesian islands await you on our private trips. We specialize in the Lesser Sunda Island Flores and the beautiful islands in the Komodo National Park. The Lesser Sunda Islands are located east of Bali. Komodo National Park is home to the Komodo dragons, the world's largest prehistoric-looking lizards
Flores Island, which has not yet been much developed for tourism, impresses with its scenic diversity and beauty. Spectacular volcanoes and colour-changing crater lakes, spider web paddy fields, ancient villages, a jungle of nutmeg, clove, cashew, kapok trees and smallholder coffee and cocoa plantations on lush green hills make a Flores country tour an unforgettable experience. There are also lonely beaches with a colorful underwater world.
