 Indonesia recommendations

    
PostPosted: Sun Jul 12, 2009 11:29 am Reply to Message Reply with quote

Having done a little research of places to visit in Indonesia the plan at the moment is...

Sumatra > Java (overland) > Bali > Flores (flight) > Heading back west visiting Rinca, Lombok, Gilis.

Looking to spend around two months. Am I attempting too much? Any recommendations where to focus most of my time?

Hi

Depends on how much you want to see while you are there, if you have a look at my blog, you will see just how much you can do.

About half way down the page.

I spent just under 2 months in the country, although did spend 2 weeks on the beach in Bali for Xmas and New Year, what time of the year are you planing on going.

I only went from Bali and then overland all the way through Java, and Sumatra to the very north west point of Pulau Weh, all though I took my time and stopped at some places longer than I needed to, it is not very easy to travel as in Sumatra you only can get anywhere by bus.

But you will have a great time, am myself planning at some point to go back and go to Lombok, and the other islands to the east at some point.
