Irian Jaya
Papua is one of the world's last wilderness areas. The Papuans live
in some of the most rugged terrain on earth - from snowcapped mountains
to mangrove swamps - in a region that offers fantastic jungle scenery,
equatorial glaciers, abundant bird and animal life and great trekking
opportunities. |
| Highlights include the Baliem Valley with its unique culture and
numerous treks; Sentani for boat trips around the magnificent Sentani
Lake; and Kota Biak for access to dive sites. Don't underestimate
the size of Papua and the amount of time and money it will take
to get around. Irian Jaya Tour Package |

Kalimantan
If you're expecting to see half-naked, heavily tatooed Dayaks striding
down the streets of Balikpapan or Pontianak, you'll be disappointed.
Your first impressions of Kalimantan, which occupies the southern
two-thirds of the island of Borneo, are likely to be of oil refineries
and timber mills. |
| The popular images of Borneo stem from the exaggerated
accounts of early European explorers. Timber and mining interests
have penetrated deep into the jungles, bulldozing and chainsawing
at an alarming rate, fouling rivers and leaving indigenous cultures
reeling from these modern world intrusions. Kalimantan Tour Package |

Komodo & Rinca
These two small islands sandwiched between Flores and Sumbawa in
eastern Nusa Tenggara are famous for their four-legged inhabitants
- the ponderous Komodo dragons. The lizards can be quite fierce,
and range from 20g (0.7oz) pipsqueaks to 130kg (287lb) monsters. |
| Komodo is a hilly desolate island, but Rinca's wildlife is fairly
abundant - there are several monkey colonies, wild water buffalo,
deer, bush turkeys and eagles. Ferries run to Komodo from Sape in
Sumbawa and Labhuanbajo in Flores. To visit Komodo, you'll need
to arrange a trip from Bali or Flores. Komodo & Rinca Tour Package |

Maluku
The thousand islands of Maluku (formerly the Moluccas) were the
fabled spice islands of history, which attracted Indian, Chinese,
Arab and later European traders, who came in search of the cloves,
nutmeg and mace that grew here and nowhere else. |
| These islands, sprawled across a vast area of ocean, offer tropical
scenery with a Polynesian feel, exotic bird life, old forts, lovely
villages and beaches, good snorkelling and diving, and no touts
or pollution. You'll need at least five weeks to explore the islands
by boat or three by plane. Maluku Tour Package |

Sulawesi
Most travellers head to the beautiful rugged hill country of Tana
Toraja in central and southern Sulawesi, and the small town of Rantepao
pulls in many of them. The Toraja have become the focus of tourist
attention thanks to their elaborate ceremonies, burial sites and
traditional houses. |
| The prosperous town of Manado, in northern Sulawesi, is renowned
as the gateway to the stunning coral reefs off nearby Pulau Bunaken.
Much of the coral has tragically been decimated by careless boat
traffic, but the nearest drop-offs are within swimming distance
of shore and remain unscathed. Sulawesi Tour Package |
