Individual tours
without obligation
Indonesia brings together ancient temples, active volcanoes, tropical rainforests, traditional villages and spectacular island landscapes. A tailor-made Indonesia tour allows you to experience selected regions at your preferred pace, with an itinerary created around your interests, travel dates and desired level of comfort.
Whether you are travelling solo or as a couple, Travel Mart TM will design your bespoke Indonesia holiday from the ground up. Carefully selected accommodation, private transfers, knowledgeable local guides and well-coordinated domestic connections ensure a smooth journey from one island to the next.
Discover Indonesia Your Way
With more than 17,000 islands, Indonesia offers remarkable possibilities for a personalised journey. You may explore one region in depth or combine several islands within a carefully planned itinerary.
Culture enthusiasts can discover the temples and royal heritage of Java, while nature lovers explore volcanoes, rainforests and national parks. Sulawesi reveals distinctive traditions, Komodo offers dramatic scenery and remarkable wildlife, and Raja Ampat is renowned for its pristine islands and extraordinary marine biodiversity.
Java and Bali Tours – Temples, Culture and Volcanoes
Java is an excellent choice for travellers wishing to experience Indonesia’s cultural and historical heritage. Its major highlights include the monumental Borobudur Temple, the Hindu complex of Prambanan and the former royal city of Yogyakarta.
In East Java, the landscapes surrounding Mount Bromo and the Ijen Plateau reveal a more adventurous side of the island. Sunrise viewpoints, volcanic calderas and remote mountain scenery create a striking contrast to Java’s historic cities and temples.
A Bali tailor-made holiday complements Java with a blend of culture, nature and relaxation. Around Ubud, you can visit rice terraces, temples, artists’ villages and traditional dance performances. Meanwhile, the island’s quieter northern and eastern regions offer peaceful coastlines, mountain scenery and an insight into everyday Balinese life.
Sumatra and Kalimantan – Rainforests and Orangutans
In northern Sumatra, Bukit Lawang is one of the principal gateways to Gunung Leuser National Park. Guided rainforest walks offer opportunities to observe orangutans in Sumatra, along with monkeys, tropical birds and other wildlife.
Alternatively, a Borneo wildlife tour can take you into Kalimantan, the Indonesian part of Borneo. In Tanjung Puting National Park, you travel along forest waterways aboard a traditional riverboat. The journey includes visits to orangutan observation and research sites, including Camp Leakey.
These regions are particularly rewarding for travellers interested in tropical ecosystems, wildlife encounters and destinations beyond Indonesia’s better-known routes.
Komodo and Flores Tours
The port town of Labuan Bajo on Flores is the starting point for journeys through Komodo National Park. This protected island environment is known for its Komodo dragons, rugged hills, secluded bays and exceptionally rich marine life. Visits to Komodo or Rinca are conducted with a local ranger.
Flores also deserves time beyond the national park. Traditional communities, mountain landscapes and the coloured crater lakes of Mount Kelimutu make the island an absorbing destination in its own right.
A private boat journey or refined small-ship cruise can be incorporated into your itinerary, allowing you to explore remote islands, snorkelling sites and quiet beaches at a relaxed pace.
Tailor-Made Sulawesi Tours – Culture and Remote Landscapes
Sulawesi has a distinctive cultural identity and some of Indonesia’s most unusual scenery. A key highlight is the highland region of Tana Toraja, known for its traditional Tongkonan houses, rice terraces, rock-cut burial sites and ceremonial traditions.
Depending on the available time, your itinerary may also include nature reserves, coastal areas and less frequently visited communities. Sulawesi is particularly suited to experienced Asia travellers seeking meaningful cultural encounters and a deeper understanding of regional traditions.
Raja Ampat Holidays – An Extraordinary Island and Marine World
Located in eastern Indonesia, Raja Ampat is one of the country’s most remarkable marine regions. Limestone islands, hidden lagoons, coral reefs and exceptional underwater biodiversity define this remote archipelago.
Accommodation can be arranged at a carefully selected island resort or aboard a premium expedition vessel. Experiences may include diving, snorkelling, kayaking and guided excursions to panoramic viewpoints. As reaching Raja Ampat requires additional travel time, it is best included in a thoughtfully paced itinerary.
Beach Stays in Bali, Lombok and the Gili Islands
After an active cultural or wildlife tour, a few restful days beside the sea provide a natural conclusion to your journey.
Bali offers an excellent choice of refined resorts, private pool villas and intimate boutique hotels. Lombok appeals to travellers seeking a quieter atmosphere, spacious beaches and a less developed island setting. The Gili Islands may also be included, depending on your preferred surroundings, accommodation style and interests.
Travel Mart TM will recommend the most suitable location rather than simply adding a standard beach extension.
Sumba – Ancient Traditions and Exceptional Island Retreats
Situated south of Flores, Sumba is shaped by sweeping savannahs, secluded beaches, waterfalls and traditional villages. Its distinctive high-roofed houses, monumental stone tombs and enduring Marapu culture give the island a character unlike anywhere else in Indonesia.
Sumba is particularly appealing to discerning travellers seeking authentic cultural encounters alongside refined accommodation. The island is home to carefully selected boutique properties as well as NIHI Sumba, one of Indonesia’s most celebrated resorts. It can be seamlessly combined with Bali, Flores or Komodo as part of a tailor-made journey.
Suggested island combinations
- Bali and Sumba – Balinese culture, remote landscapes and exceptional accommodation
- Sumba, Flores and Komodo – traditional villages, volcanic scenery, island exploration and wildlife encounters
Distinctive Accommodation in Indonesia
The right accommodation can transform an itinerary. For this reason, Travel Mart TM selects each property according to its location, atmosphere, service standards and suitability for your journey.
Options may include:
- boutique hotels in Yogyakarta and Ubud
- private pool villas in Bali
- premium beachfront resorts in Lombok
- nature lodges in Sumatra and Flores
- traditional riverboats in Kalimantan
- exclusive island resorts and expedition vessels in Raja Ampat
Hotel category is only one consideration. Character, setting, attentive service and a logical position within the itinerary are equally important.
Suggested Indonesia Multi-Island Tours
A custom Indonesia itinerary can combine culture, nature, wildlife and time at the beach. Recommended combinations include:
- Java and Bali – temples, volcanoes and Balinese culture
- Bali and Komodo – island scenery, marine experiences and Komodo dragons
- Sumatra and Bali – rainforest walks, orangutans and beach relaxation
- Sulawesi and Bali – cultural encounters followed by a refined island stay
- Java, Flores and Komodo – heritage sites, volcanic landscapes and wildlife
- Bali and Raja Ampat – elegant resorts and outstanding marine environments
These are suggestions rather than fixed packages. Your route will be adapted to your interests, preferred pace, travel dates and accommodation requirements.
Best Time to Visit Indonesia
The ideal time for an Indonesia tailor-made tour depends on the islands included in your itinerary. For Java, Bali, Lombok, Flores and Komodo, the months from approximately May to October generally offer favourable conditions.
However, weather patterns vary across this vast archipelago. Journeys to Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Raja Ampat therefore require region-specific planning. Many destinations can also be rewarding during the greener months, when tropical showers are often followed by clear periods and popular sites may be quieter.
Travel Mart TM will consider seasonal conditions when recommending your route and travel dates.
