Hi, my name is Harry Henry, I'm an interior designer and I love travelling so much. There is so much more to discover beyond the most popular place in the country-Bali. Lake Toba is one from the top destinations list in Indonesia with an amazing history and I would gladly introduce and showing it to all people around the world. Located in North Sumatra, this enormous volcanic crater lake ( the biggest on the planet ) is now a peaceful paradise, a true Indonesia beauty, belying its violent beginnings. Roughly 74,000 years ago, this caldera was formed in an epic volcanic eruption - the biggest recorded on earth in 25 million years. Nowadays, it's perfectly safe. Samosir island ( the same size as Singapore ) lies in the center of the lake and draws both local and International tourists. People come to experience the unique Batak culture, enjoy a cooler climate than the lowland regions, and marvel at the out-of-this-world scenery. Think soaring cliffs, tumbling waterfalls, emerald-green rice fields, and that endlessly sparkling lake. Many panoramas around the lake look like something from a postcard of the Swiss Alps in summer. However, the Batak houses with their distinctive sloped rooves are characteristic of the area's architecture. The jaw-dropping scenery and endless tranquility alone make Lake Toba one of the best places to visit in Indonesia. On the last day of this trip, I will bring you guys to an amazing clear blue river trekking experiences in Langkat. I am sure you guys will really enjoy this activities if you are a nature lovers. The trip price includes: - Hotel or Villa Accommodation for all 8 nights, with breakfast included for 5 day - Guiding & organizing fee - Boat Trip Tour in Lake Toba - Transportation - Entry ticket fee for all activities I will drop some more details on the stops during this trip, and if you are interested, i would gladly explain and provide any details that you need !
