5 DAYS

 

Below 14 options for a 5 day trip from east to west which also can be used the other way around. If possible I advise to start as far as possible, eg in the east. In case of any cancellation or delay better at the start of your trip rather than at the end, in particular if you need a connecting flight back home. From Maumere or Ende are far less flights to elsewhere (Denpasar, Jakarta) than from Labuan Bajo. The only exception is if you want to travel to Sulawesi, Timor or Sumba, then it is better to start in Labuan Bajo and end in the east.
*For those who want to overnight in Bajawa, you also can choose to overnight in one of the traditional villages like Tololela or Belaraghi, but also possible in Bena, Gurusina and Maghilewa.

Blue marked are the most visited and populair POI's but I would also consider one of the less know places marked in yellow. Of course you can't visit all mentioned places. Please make your choice and talk with your driver what is possible.

Many POI's? Well actually there are even more. For a complete list of see's & do's check here
