What is Overland Flores?

Overland Flores is a land tour designed to explore Flores Island thoroughly, deeply, and authentically. This journey is not merely about moving from one tourist spot to another, but an adventure to experience the life, culture, nature, and history of Flores up close.

During the Overland Flores trip, you take a land route across mountains, valleys, forests, and coastlines. You are invited to explore traditional villages that still maintain local wisdom, such as Wae Rebo Village in the mountains with its iconic cone-shaped traditional houses. This Waerebo package focuses on that highland stay, with a trek from Denge and a visit to the Lembor spider web rice fields on the return to Labuan Bajo.
