Indonesia, the archipelago of magical and fascinating discoveries

If there were only one word to describe Indonesia, it would be diversity! This archipelago, stretching from Asia to Oceania, offers a kaleidoscope of landscapes, each more magnificent than the last. Bali, Sumatra, Java, Lombok... Who hasn't dreamed at the mere mention of these destinations? Adventures, magical and fascinating places, wild animals, orangutans, dragons, tigers. For a moment, share the culture of ethnic groups so far removed from our own. These places that stimulate the imagination and, once there, continue to surprise us, are very real. You will love the grandiose landscapes, the lush jungles, and the vast beaches. To these various natural riches is added its astonishing cultural diversity. This brings together peoples and ethnic groups with diverse beliefs, but with hospitality and incomparable kindness as a common thread!

The most beautiful jewels of the archipelago

Of course, Bali, aptly named the "island of the gods," is considered the pearl of the country. A distinction that has pleased the flow of tourists. Let's admit that its landscapes are sublime, between volcanic reliefs, stretches of rice fields, forests, and of course the sea. The south is devoted to tourism, while the interior has preserved its authenticity, as in Ubud. A meeting place for hippies and "yogis" from all over the world. The quiet strength of Bali is the smile of its inhabitants, their kindness, and this culture woven with customs like the ritual of offerings.

Nature lovers will be won over by Komodo National Park. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the park is home to this unique species that is likened as much to a dragon as to a dinosaur: the Komodo. This species is a kind of monitor lizard, 3 meters long and at least 90 kg. There are nearly 2,500 in the entire park, which spans three major islands: Komodo, Rinca, and Padar. On this same site, you will encounter other different species such as wild buffalo, monkeys, deer, horses, and various kinds of birds.

Relaxation on the islands of the archipelago

Those who want a more relaxing stay, the Gili Islands are waiting for you. White sand, turquoise sea, breathtaking seabeds, and coconut trees, that's what you'll find in this paradise set on three islands. Each has its own appeal: Gili Air is the most authentic, Gili T, or Trawangan, the chicest, and Meno the wildest. These islands enjoy a peaceful atmosphere; vehicles and dogs are prohibited. You will have the chance to spend most of your time with a mask and snorkel, on a paddleboard or a kayak.

For more discoveries, head to Papua! We leave the Asian part of Indonesia to enter its Oceanian territory: a different atmosphere. Coming to this remote region will be an adventure that will leave you with unforgettable memories. Its wild areas are mostly inhabited by Papuans, who are made up of about 250 different ethnic groups, some of which still maintain tribal traditions. All these ethnic groups are very connected to nature; you will have the opportunity to go hiking in unique places!

If you dream of a total change of scenery with indelible memories, Indonesia is the destination for you. Between paradise beaches, idyllic spots for surf lovers, volcanoes, national parks, immersion with local populations, the Indonesian archipelago has so much to offer you!
