New Travel Platform Simplifies Access to Indonesia’s Islands

The more than 17,000 islands that make up the tropical nation of Indonesia are now easier to explore thanks to new journeys offered by travel platform Timbuktu. From handling logistics to arranging curated experiences, Timbuktu’s team of travel professionals creates memorable trips that range from Komodo dragon encounters to hikes along the flanks of active volcanoes.

“Indonesia has it all and truly offers something for every traveler,” said Meagan Yash, travel specialist at Timbuktu. “You can expect extraordinary wildlife experiences in Kalimantan and Komodo National Park, authentic cultural encounters in Java and Lombok, and endless beach options—from remote, untouched islands like Sumba to lively beach clubs in Seminyak and Canggu on Bali.”
