Wae Rebo Tour 2 Days/ 1 Night
We think this one of the best Tours in Flores Indonesia. The trip will leave in the early morning from Labuan Bajo to start the journey. It usually takes 5 to 6 hours of driving to get to Denge village, and then a short time after that we will start trekking for around 2-3 hours up to Wae Rebo Village. This trek is not the easiest trek to do. The elevation raises up to about 1,200 Meters about sea level. It is bit of a strong hike, so if you can not hike for 2-3 hours, this tour is not recommended for you. Once we arrive at the Village, we will be part of a short welcoming ceremony with the locals. The locals are very friendly and warm and welcome you as family.

Wae Rebo is a small village that is bit off of the beaten path. It is located at about 1,100 meters above sea level and is about a 3 - 4 travel and trek by foot from Denge Village. Wae Rebo is surrounded by gorgeous panoramic mountains. The entire area is rich in vegetation and you can hear many different kinds of birds along the trek. Visiting this village is truly a unique experience that is highly recommended if you have time on your visit to Flores.
