Indonesia: Sumatra, Java & Bali

This G Adventures small-group tour threads through three Indonesian islands over 21 nights, starting in Sumatra with jungle trekking in Gunung Leuser National Park to spot the rare Sumatran orangutan. After time in Medan, the route moves to Java, where early morning hikes to Borobudur and Mount Bromo capture the dramatic volcanic landscapes. Along the way, village visits and local market tours offer a glimpse of daily life.

The final act unfolds on Bali, beginning with the rice terraces near Ubud before time to unwind in Candidasa, with options to snorkel or enjoy hot springs. The group stays overnight in community guesthouses and homestays, adding a layer of connection beyond standard hotels. The combination of private vehicles, bikes, ferries and jeep rides mean the pace varies, sometimes early starts for sunrises, sometimes easy afternoons with local cooking classes.

Your G Adventures CEO leads the way, with local guides on hand to deepen understanding. With room for up to 16 travellers, it’s a tour that balances well-led activity with plenty of space to follow your own interests during pockets of free time.

These are the places the trip visits, in order. G Adventures publishes the day-by-day itinerary on its own site.
