Wild islands, ancient wonders and dragons (yes really)

Bali, Indonesia

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
