Journey Overview

Discover South Sulawesi with no more than eight guests, combining Rammang-Rammang’s waterways with Toraja’s ancestral heritage.

Travel north from Makassar into a landscape of tongkonan houses, cliff graves and cultivated hillsides. Your local guide introduces the influence of Aluk Todolo, Toraja’s ancestral belief system, and the traditions that continue to shape family and community life.

Three nights at Santai Toraja Hotel provide a settled base for exploring. Discover the villages and burial sites around Rantepao, the megaliths of Bori Kalimbuang and the rice terraces beneath Mount Sesean, sharing the experience with a small group of fellow travellers.
