Don’t let yourself miss the opportunity to see the beauty of Indonesia
Whether it’s your first solo trip or your fourth, you’ll find there’s more fun to be had when travelling in a small group. Whatever brings you to Indonesia, be it the Insta-famous beaches, the iconic temples and rice paddy fields or the allure of beach-side cuisine, join a small group tour with Intrepid and you’ll have plenty of new faces to share it all with.
Our Indonesia solo trips
Let's create an exclusive trip for your group.
Explore Tailor-Made tripsWhy choose us
After a resident guide to help you choose between nasi uduk and nasi goreng? One who also knows the off-the-beaten-track spots and can teach you Indonesian greetings (which will go a long way in your day-to-day adventures)? Well, you’re in luck! All Intrepid trips are led by our incredible local leaders who are there to guide you through every leg of your tour. They also provide great recommendations for spending your free time.
Our local leaders are equipped to prioritise your safety and keep you informed as you travel through Indonesia. There are strict laws and regulations in place surrounding drug use and gambling, as well as newly introduced laws banning sex outside marriage which apply to both locals and foreigners. However, Indonesia sees millions of tourists every year, and it is generally a safe place to travel.
Indonesia has so many incredible sights that it’d almost be a shame not to share them with anyone. Travelling with us means you’ll explore the country with roughly 10 others, all of whom are just as keen to immerse themselves in the wonders of this South Asian paradise. This means you’ll likely have someone to join you on an early-morning yoga class or clink Bintangs with at sunset.
What’s better than having someone deal with the ‘hows’ of your next steps? Especially after a big day (or night) out. On an Intrepid trip, all the transport, accommodation and included activities are organised for you. All you need to do is show up! You’re free to make only the fun decisions – like whether you should add in a cooking class, trip to the hot springs or a surfing lesson today?
Solo travel tips
It pays to learn a little bit of the local language wherever you go and you should always consider the country’s dress code when picking out what to wear. In many places, you maybe be expected to dress modestly and cover up exposed skin so consider packing a sarong or light scarf to cover exposed shoulders, along with a long skirt or trousers. Whether you agree with it or not, it’s respectful (and smart) to follow the local style.
When you’re out and about being all adventure-y, just keep an eye on the sunset. Try to avoid catching public transport after dark when you’re on your own, especially if you’re carrying your suitcase/backpack/fancy camera/map (it kind of screams ‘tourist’). Travelling with a group is a smart move for any traveller; it’s always good to have people around who’ve got your back.
Social media may be the doom of mankind and rational thought as we know it, but it can be useful, even as a safety tool. Your friends and family are now privy to a minute-by-minute update of your whereabouts, regardless of where you are in the world. Before you leave home, give your friends/family a social media heads-up: ‘If I don’t post a sunset selfie for five days straight, get in touch and see if I’m okay.’
