What To Expect
- Day 1. Wae Rebo Village
Morning – Transfer to the camp and outdoor picnic
7:30 AM – Your driver from the “This is Flores” company, along with an English-speaking guide, will meet you in the lobby of your hotel, and you will head towards Wae Rebo village. Be prepared for a long but scenic journey by car. The trip will take about 7 hours. Along the way, you will stop for a picnic and enjoy traditional local dishes with stunning views of the surrounding landscapes.
Afternoon – Hike to Wae Rebo Village
2:30 PM – After lunch, your driver will drop you off at the first base camp (Dintor or Denge), from where you will embark on a 3-4 hour hike to Wae Rebo village. If you wish to shorten the hike to 2.5 hours, you can rent a motorcycle. The path to Wae Rebo is incredibly picturesque. Enjoy mountain views, fertile valleys, winding rivers, dense forests, and expansive rice terraces. Wae Rebo is a small and isolated village located at an altitude of around 1,100 meters. It is famous for its traditional “Mbaru Niang” houses, built in a conical shape and passed down through generations, reflecting the unique architecture of the Manggarai people. These tall cone-shaped houses, entirely covered with thatched roofs reaching the ground, were once common in the region. Today, they can only be found in this village.
Evening – Ceremony and dinner
Upon arrival, you will have the chance to immerse yourself in the lifestyle and ancient traditions of the village. The village chief will welcome you and guide you through a traditional greeting ceremony. Please respect local customs and refrain from taking photos or videos during the ceremony.
Afterward, the hospitable locals will invite you into one of the traditional houses for dinner. In an authentic setting, you will savor homemade Manggarai dishes.
Following a hearty and warm dinner, you will spend the night in Wae Rebo, surrounded by nature and tranquility. This magical night will offer you the chance to see billions of stars in the sky and the Milky Way.
- Day 2. Lingko Rice Fields and Ruteng Village
Morning – Breakfast and hike back to the camp
You will wake up to the gentle sounds of nature and enjoy a traditional Manggarai breakfast in the village. Then, you will hike back to the base camp. The descent will take about 3 hours. Along the way, you will stop for a buffet lunch.
Afternoon – Lingko Rice Fields
Enjoy a cup of traditional coffee grown on local plantations while taking in a panoramic view of the spiderweb-shaped Lingko rice fields. This is one of the iconic landmarks of Flores Island. The fields were created using a traditional method of land distribution among the Manggarai community. The center of the “web” is the point from which the land was divided into radial sectors, symbolizing unity and equality among the residents. This ancient system reflects the people’s connection to the land and nature.
Evening – Ruteng Traditional Market and check-in at the hotel
In the evening, you will visit a traditional market in the town of Ruteng. Here, you can see locals selling fresh fruits, vegetables, spices, and handicrafts such as traditional sarongs and “songket” textiles. This market offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the daily life of the community, feel the atmosphere filled with the aroma of spices and the sounds of conversations, and buy souvenirs reflecting the cultural heritage of the region.
Later, you will check into a comfortable deluxe room at the “Springhill” hotel. You will have time to relax, followed by a dinner featuring authentic Indonesian dishes served buffet-style.
Go to bed early to get enough rest for the next day.

Morning – Sunrise and breakfast
If you are not too tired and can wake up at 5:00 AM, you can witness the sunrise and take a walk through the rice fields. Alternatively, you can sleep in and enjoy breakfast at the hotel at your convenience. Your driver will take you to the walk and back to the hotel afterward. If you prefer not to wake up early, you can simply rest until breakfast.
Afternoon – Cunca Wulang Waterfall
After breakfast, you will check out of the hotel, and your driver will take you to the scenic Cunca Wulang Waterfall. On the way, you will stop for lunch. A short walk along a scenic jungle trail will bring you to the waterfall, surrounded by dense tropical forest. Its waters cascade into natural emerald pools, making it a perfect spot for swimming. You can also jump into the water from cliffs up to 5 meters high, enjoying breathtaking canyon views and the tranquil atmosphere of this natural oasis.
