Details

 

This 1-day Kelimutu Volcano Lake tour is a breathtaking journey to one of Flores Island’s most iconic natural wonders — the tri-colored crater lakes of Mount Kelimutu. Located in the heart of the island, these ever-changing lakes are a rare geological phenomenon and hold deep spiritual significance for the local Lio people.

Whether you start your tour from Maumere or Ende, you'll enjoy a scenic drive through lush highlands and traditional villages before reaching the summit of Kelimutu for a short and easy 30-minute walk. From the top, marvel at the three distinct volcanic crater lakes—each with its own mysterious hue—and soak in the panoramic mountain views.

This tour is the perfect blend of nature, culture, and adventure, complete with stopovers at traditional villages, white-sand beaches (from Maumere), and colonial-era churches.
