Small group tour company, G
Adventures, has launched 20 new exciting trips in the islands of Indonesia.
Yves Marceau, vice president of product at G Adventures said
in a statement, “We wanted to bring something exciting to Indonesia that
introduced G Adventures travelers to the true culture and adventure that exists
there. Indonesia is undoubtedly a popular tourism destination, but most travel
opportunities in the region focus on Bali and Lombok, while other locations and
communities remain unseen.”
He added, “We wanted to revamp our trips to the country –
and create entirely new ones – to give travelers the chance to spend more time
at community projects in well-known islands, or travel deeper in the country,
taking them much further off the beaten path. This brings the benefits of
tourism income to other parts of Indonesia but also gives travelers the
opportunity to be
truly adventurous and learn from the fascinating communities that live
here.”
