Day 01

Drive from Jakarta to Baduy Village via Rangkasbitung

  • Meet your guide at your hotel in Jakarta, then begin the drive along the Jakarta-Merak highway towards Baduy village via Rangkasbitung. Pass through the Indonesian countryside and continue uphill into the remote highland areas of Kendung, where the Baduy have lived in self-imposed isolation for centuries. Industrial products, media, furniture, as well as many utensils for daily use, are banned from Baduy life.

  • Upon arrival in Ciboleger - the border village between Baduy territory and the outside world - follow the path to the village on foot while enjoying the natural landscape around you. Your guide will take you to the place where you can rest and spend the night.

  • Experience this other world, far away from our civilisation, in an authentic manner today. Mingle with the locals.

  • Enjoy delicious meals prepared by the local guide in the Baduy house.

Stay overnight in the village.
