Highlights

Pick Up From The Airport - Bukittinggi

TARUKO Coffee & Resto - Pick up from the airport and head straight to Bukittinggi City via Malalak. We’ll visit Taruko Caffe to enjoy coffee and the scenic view. This spot was also visited by the world-renowned chef Gordon Ramsay, who filmed a video here about cooking Rendang and Nasi Goreng.

Puncak Taruko - After visiting Taruko Caffe, we’ll drive for about 10 minutes to reach this location, where you can relax and take in the stunning view of Sianok Canyon.

Payakumbuh

Batang Palupuh Nature Conservation Center (Rafflesia Park) - The Rafflesia, also known as the stinking corpse lily, is a genus of parasitic flowering plants in the Rafflesiaceae family. These species produce enormous flowers, with buds emerging from the ground or directly from the lower stems of their host plants. One species boasts the largest flower in the world. Plants of the World Online lists up to 41 species in this genus, all found throughout Southeast Asia. A Rafflesia that bloomed in West Sumatra in 2019 measured almost 4 feet (120 cm) in diameter, making it the largest flower ever recorded—4 inches (10 cm) wider than the previous record-holder in 2017.

PS
Because Rafflesia only blooms for 7 days after 1.5 - 2 years, this flower is not always available. Good luck :)

2 days in the north of Sumatra - Rezi helped us with getting the ferry tickets to Palau Siberut and immediately proved to be very helpful, precise and prepared. As soon as I realized he had an available spot for the next two days, I decided to book a guided tour in the north of Padang. The car was clean and confortable (the roads conditions are not always good) and the stops were interesting. He was always there to help us and translate whenever we need and made his best to satisfy every request we had. Thanks Rezi for giving us the possibility to know your traditions and culture

I will definitely join him again for more trips when next back in Sumatra. We saw the rafflesia flower which was incredible!

Unforgettable trip to West Sumatra!! - Rezi guided us on a unforgettable trip to West Sumatra! My friend and I took our son with us on this adventure to Indonesia. We felt we were very well taken care of. Our driver Febri was amazing. Two of them was so patient with our kids. They set up fishing for them, watched over them as we hiked through jungle to see the Raffesia flower, and even entertained them on a seesaw. They have always tried their best in resolving any issue that came up and accommodated our special requests. Definitely an incredible trip to beautiful west Sumatra!
