The diversity of arts and cultures literally make this region a garden of eden for social scientists and culture seekers.

Sumatra is also the home the Minangkabau, one of Indonesia most interesting and influential ethnic groups.

We’ve created some unique experience for your travelers. These are excursions that will give a traveler that special moment in their holiday. Think off: a perfect white beach all to yourself, a special evening with locals or a walk in just that undiscovered area of a major city.

Enjoy Samosirs' nature by foot

Samosir Island is the cultural center of the Batak tribe who are now mostly Christians. Start in Sigarantung, a village at higher altitude in the centre of the island, have a wonderful walk downwards through an agriculture fields, rice fields, small traditional villages while enjoying great views of Samosir, Lake Toba and mainland Sumatra. Lake Toba is an immense volcanic lake covering an area of 1,707 km² with an island in its center. Formed by a gigantic volcanic eruption some 70,000 years ago, it is probably the largest resurgent caldera on Earth. The walk ends in the village of Tomok, is the early 19th C stone sarcophagus of Raja Sidabuta, the chief of the first tribe to migrate to the island. The coffin has a singa face – a part-elephant, part-buffalo creature of Toban Leged – carved into one end, and a small stone effigy of the king’s wife on top of the lid.

Climb Sibayak Volcano in Berastagi

Spend the holiday with climbing a volcano mountain probably sounds a bit terrifying. But don’t worry, this is one of easily accessible top volcanoes in Indonesia, can be explored by anyone in reasonably good shape. There are 2 different routes to volcano’s crater; from Jaranguda just 3 km from town Berastagi and from Semangat Gunung, also known as Raja Berneh where there are pool hotsprings. Whichever route you take, the earlier you start the better, not least because the views are their best just after sunrise. Get lucky to hear the calling of the black siamang & gibbon. The siamang (Symphalangus syndactylus) is an arboreal black-furred gibbon native to the forests of Malaysia, Thailand, and Sumatra while Gibbon is an apes in the family Hylobatidae. The last road will be a walk between rocks. Arrive at the crater where you can see sulfur puffing from vents. To descend you can choose, the same way, or through Raja Berneh where you can soak your sore muscles in the hotsprings.
