We asked the Flight Centre team to list five of Indonesias best under-the-radar spots for travellers with some serious wanderlust.
Indonesia is one of the world’s most vibrant countries, an archipelago as diverse as it is scattered. And while many of us have succumbed to Bali’s charms, there’s plenty more on offer than the typical resort experience.
East Java: Mount Bromo
Unrepentant thrill-seekers should lace up their walking boots and pack a sense of adventure. Around three hours’ southeast of Surabaya, Mount Bromo, part of the breathtaking Tengger massif range, welcomes intrepid travellers from around the world. Situated in the middle of a plain known as “The Sea of Sand” that can be crossed on horseback, Bromo is accessed from the nearby village of Cemoro Lawang. From there, you can pick up a guided jeep tour to the volcano, before summiting its slopes on foot for a truly unforgettable experience.
Flower Island: Kelimutu
