Stay at Nihi Sumba

The Kudanil Explorer is a new 50-metre expedition vessel that accommodates 16 guests in 8 spacious berths. 21 crew are aboard to look after guests’ needs as they voyage through the most remote areas in indonesia. The owner took the opportunity to convert a heavy-duty ocean-going vessel into a luxury expedition yacht, which proves the perfect base from which to explore and discover. The boat can venture to areas of the archipelago that other boats cannot reach.

Kudanil Explorer features 8 spacious air-conditioned ensuite

We had an incredible holiday. All arrangements went well and we have recommended True Travel to friends already. Como Ubud was incredible as were the staff, our room was also upgraded which was a treat. Madey is an incredible guide, we loved the volcanoes, monkey farm and rice terraces and it was such good value. From here we went to Komodo Dive Resort where the food was fantastic and diving team were great.
