Flores Adventure Tour

Amazing tour. Beautifully set up from beginning to end. Trip to Komodo islands. Snorkeling, seeing the komodo dragons

While planning my trip to Indonesia I knew already I wanted to see more of Flores. At first I was looking for a shared tour as I was solo traveling. As there were no options available I decided to search for a private guide. Irwan was promptly responding to my request via WhatsApp and was very communicative and informative to every question I had. It was an easy decision for me to do my trip with Irwan as time and place were fitting perfectly and I instantly had the feeling Irwan is there to show me the island in its full beauty. For him it was important to make everything possible for me, and he took care of everything without me worrying about anything. The time I had on the island with it's nature was amazing, especially Kelimutu was so worth it. What I will always have in my memories are the welcoming people, the untouched nature and the best guide i could have wished for, his amazing family i was able to meet for a coffee and not forgetting to mention our amazing driver Mus! Thanks again, I will for sure come back one day!

We (Martine and Paul) had a wonderful trip with our guide Erlando and our driver Mus. We drove from Labuan Bajo to Ruteng (and back) where we stayed for 3 nights. Erlando's information was very interesting and we learned a lot from him about Flores and its inhabitants. Mus is an excellent driver. And together they were a great team to go out with. During our trip we had some health problems and Erlando and Mus did everything they could to support us. Their hometown is Ruteng and they showed us the most beautiful places there. We were very impressed with the spider web rice fields. But the waterfall and cave where Flores man was discovered were also highlights. We even had the chance to meet their families and were able to attend Erlando's niece's wedding. Things we will never forget. The trip was very well organized and the hotels we stayed in were excellent. We definitely recommend booking with Flores Traveler if you want to get to know Flores better and have an unforgettable and interesting trip.

Recently my 24 year old daughter and I returned from a wonderful experience on a 7 day ‘Flores Overland’ trip with Flores Traveler. I had found this small company online, so of course had some concerns as to their legitimacy, and to the quality of the services that they were able to provide – and was more than pleasantly surprised right from the start of the whole process! To begin, they were highly responsive to all my questions – responding very promptly with complete answers to every question that I could come up with. The payment process was relatively simple, accomplished with a wire transfer to their bank account in advance of the trip – although that would be a bit easier if they were set up so as to allow for payments by credit card. And then, in Flores, they showed up right on time on day 1, just as promised, and we were off. From that point on, travelling with our guide Irwan, and the fabulous Mr Mus as the driver of our spacious and comfortable vehicle, we started heading east from Labuan Bajo, and the whole week was a total joy. Beautiful scenery ranging from the terraced slopes of dramatic volcanos to deserted coastal beaches, with lots of stops to explore small towns and markets, waterfalls and panoramic viewpoints – as well as lots of time for walks (and the rigorous hike to beautiful Wae Rebo), and visits to local indigenous villages and volcanic lakes. And while some of the roads were less than ideal, accommodations were definitely better than expected, and throughout, all accompanied by Irwan and Mus, who were not only flexible, informative, supportive and caring, but also open and fun, and always in good spirits, making us feel that we were almost all together on a family holiday! You can find out all the itinerary and pricing details directly from Flores Traveler, but rest assured that this is a professional, responsible, and thoughtful tour company, dedicated to providing a quality experience for those looking to explore the beautiful island of Flores!

It was an excellent and well organized tour which shows all the different aspects of Flores. The highlights are definitely the tour to Kelimutu, the Blue Stone beach, Bena Village and the ricefields in Ruteng! Erland was a super friendly and knowledgeable guide and showed us the best of his island!
