Discover one of South East Asia’s hidden gems
Welcome to Asia’s newest country, where you’ll find spectacular peaks, untamed jungles and the most biodiverse reefs on the planet. Discover the wonders of Timor-Leste for yourself as you explore stunning coral gardens (keep an eye out for dugongs, dolphins and whale sharks), hike to the summit of Mt Ramelau for sunrise and get to know local families at a homestay—all while experiencing Timorese hospitality and ancient traditions that have survived the devastations of war. As an off-beat destination (for now!), tourist infrastructure is a little more basic here, but we think that’s all the more reason to visit.
