Package tour: Traditional Flores and Rinca
   








 

Pac 2 Traditional Flores and Rinca, 12 days

Flores is one of Indonesia's most unspoiled islands.
It offers beautiful beaches and a hilly inland, perfectly suitable for stunning walks. Besides that, Flores is home to several tribes, which still hold on to their traditions. Animistic practices still exist in the mountains around the Kelimutu. The Ngada villages are among the most traditional ones on the island. Manggarai is the most fertile area of the island, in past times the people here lived in large, round houses. Most houses had to be demolished when the Dutch entered, but hidden behind some slopes and hills there is a village that stayed perfectly preserved . Experience a world in which time stands still! During this trip you'll also discover Rinca, only accessible by boat. Who knows you will be facing the majestic Komodo dragon!
