Why not just Google?

Infrastructure in Sumatra and Sulawesi changes — what was true last year may not be true this year.
I’ve been living and working in Indonesia for over 6 years. I know it personally, not from guidebooks.
In one hour you get what would take you weeks to find on your own.
Frequently asked questions
What language is the consultation in?
English. For Czech clients, consultations are also available in Czech.
Do you cover destinations beyond Sumatra?
Yes, I cover all of Indonesia — Sumatra, Sulawesi, and soon Borneo as well.
What if I decide on a tailor-made trip after the consultation?
The consultation fee is deducted from your total trip price.
Do I need a consultation, or is the e-book enough?
The e-book is a guide at your own pace — study it whenever you want. A consultation is a live conversation tailored to your specific situation, dates and group.
