Sumatra, Indonesia

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Sumatra is Indonesia's second-largest island and one of the most biodiverse places on Earth, stretching across the northwestern end of the archipelago. It's home to ancient rainforests, active volcanoes, and the famous Lake Toba — the world's largest volcanic lake — as well as unique wildlife including Sumatran orangutans, tigers, and elephants. Travellers are drawn to destinations like Bukit Lawang for jungle trekking and orangutan encounters, Banda Aceh for its rich history and surf culture, and the Mentawai Islands for world-class waves. The island rewards adventurous travellers with raw natural landscapes, indigenous Batak and Minangkabau cultures, and experiences well off the beaten tourist trail.
