Everything was prepared to the high-est standard with more chefs in the kitchen than diners so it was a very personalised experience with the chef in charge of each dish personally

LOMBOK
Near the northwest corner of Lombok, the Gili Islands offer the perfect island lifestyle with no traffic or crowds. Known as the turtle capital of the world, snorkelling and marine life exploration is one of the major attractions. Take a day or night dive at ‘Shark Point’, watch the sunsets over Mt Agung volcano, or stay at a luxury private villa and escape reality completely. Idyllic coral islands, the Gili Islands are a hidden gem of the many Indonesian islands.
GILI ISLANDS
Senggigi Beach is one of the more highly-developed tourist areas of Lombok and offers fine dining, nightlife and safe beaches. Go wind surfing, sea kayaking or parasailing along this quiet stretch of coast.

Go to local institution ‘Happy Café’ for a meal and nightly live entertainment.
SENGGIGI BEACH
At 3,726m high, Mount Rinjani is the second tallest peak in Indonesia and a truly marvellous sight to view and explore. An active volcano lies in a large crater lake and hot springs are located north of the lake. While serious trekkers can take on Mount Rinjani (quite a significant feat), less adventurous tourists can explore the three famous caves, popular for meditation.

SUMATRA
Located in central Sumatra, Lake Toba is 100 km long and 30 km wide and described as not only a lake, but a ‘super volcano.’ Often referred to as one of the world’s best natural wonders, Lake Toba is more like an ocean, perfect for reflection and relaxation. Hike, swim or sail the lake, or explore the island of Samosir in the middle of the lake complete with waterfalls and water buffalo. Enjoy local Batak hospitality or sample the local palm wine.
LAKE TOBA
Aceh is home to many beaches, national parks and the Orang-utan Rehabilitation Centre (one of the largest of its kind). Take a trek to Lhok Mata-le Bay, surrounded by rainforests. Visit the Central Pasar for unique market stalls, or take an emotional trip to the Tsunami Museum and the ‘Thanks to the World’ tsunami monument.
17 km from the township of Banda Aceh lie the beautiful beaches of Lampuuk and Lhoknga. Both beaches are quiet and perfect for surfing and swimming. Fresh fish barbecues are one of the highlights of the beaches, where the fish are fresh and plentiful. Explore the cliffs near Lampuuk where you’ll find a beautiful tropical forest. Lhoknga beach is perfect for exploring great local street food.

The view even better. We could see some monkeys and hornbill birds right from our breakfast table in the morn...

We have just spent New Year at the Deli River in a last minute three-night break from Singapore. It was our second trip to Sumatra, having been to lake Toba in '92 with our baby daughter. And we were not disappointed!!
Dirk and Diana couldn't have been more welcoming and Dirk even per-suaded us to go on the Hash, hiking through the jungle, lots of muddy climbs and laughs.

There seems to be a few different styles of the Nelayan group but all I have eaten at have been good although a little expensive is my thought. I noticed it looks like they are now doing Pizza at Medan Fair but does not look very appealing to me.
