]]> Take a trip off the beaten path to discover the thatched-roof houses and Neolithic funerary customs of Indonesia’s little-seen Sumba Island. On this 4-day tour, you’ll journey to remote, tribal villages, come face-to-face with megalithic burial sites, and relax on virgin sands along the Indian Ocean. If you’re craving a tropical adventure off the tourist trail, Sumba is calling your name.

When you arrive in Sumba Island, you’ll start your tour with a lovely 2-hour drive and a relaxing stay at a resort with commanding views. Then, dive into the local culture with visits to Tarung and Waitabar villages, where traditional, thatched-roof houses stand proud and tall.

Indonesia Anthropologists say Sumba is home to present-day cultures that are closest to the cultures of Neolithic times. You’ll take a trip to the Bronze Age in Anakalang, where numerous megalithic tombs mark the site of indigenous ancestors. Visit the Royal Tombs of Pasunga and Gogali, and take a soft trek through remote Praiijing, the most beautiful village in the region. Then, it’s on to Kodi, a beautiful region known as a hotbed of Merapu culture.

Go for a swim at the idyllic beaches of Mandorak, then step inside a traditional, thatched-roof house in Wainyapu. To end your active Sumba tour, relax at a beachside hotel at Pantai Kita.

]]> Sumba Island is part of The Lesser Sunda Islands, that’s located in East Nusa Tenggara Province. It’s not that famous among the pleasure seekers, but when they know about this island, of course, it’s gonna be on the top list to be visited.

Sumba is one of the few places in the world where megalithic burials are used as a ‘living tradition’ to inter prominent individuals when they die. The richness of their original traditions, the way of the local lives, and of course its surreal views are things that you can’t experience it anywhere else.

SumbaSignature will bring you on a four days surreal journey through the savannah, hills, waterfalls, and endless scenic road. We open a trip for groups of true wanderers to experience all the authenticity and mesmerised by the charm of this island. Trekking through the grassland of Tanggedu Waterfall, visiting the local village like Ratenggaro Village, dipping into Weekuri Lagoon, feel the freedom at Puru Kambera Savannah, and taste the local cuisine. A surreal journey like we mentioned before. A trip to remember to the surreal land!
