An Unforgettable Sumbawa adventour, My trip to Sumbawa was a journey of discovery and wonder. It began in Teluk Saleh, where I swam with gentle whale sharks—a surreal and humbling experience. Next was Moyo Island a serene paradise with pristine beaches and the enchanting Mata Jitu Waterfall, perfect for a refreshing dip. In Sumbawa Town, I explored the local culture at the museum and markets, tasting traditional snacks and enjoying the warm hospitality of the locals. The highlight was Kenawa kenawa a tiny island with breathtaking views from its hilltop and a sunset that painted the sky in mesmerizing colors. Each destination offered unique charm and tranquility, making this trip an unforgettable escape into nature’s beauty. If you’re looking for adventure and serenity, Sumbawa is a must-visit! And I really hope I can come back someday and meet the dolphins there again. Lullaby2024-12-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly Professional and Friendly Service!" I had the pleasure of traveling with Sumbawa Adventour for 4 days 3 Night, and I was extremely impressed by their service. The team was very accommodating and made sure that every aspect of the trip was enjoyable. Our guide was passionate about the island’s nature and culture, and it really showed in the way he explained everything we saw. We explored remote islands, hiked through stunning landscapes, and visited several local communities. The accommodations were comfortable, and the food was delicious. The company’s attention to detail made our trip seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend Sumbawa Adventour for anyone looking to experience the beauty of Sumbawa in a professional and friendly environment. They truly know how to provide a memorable experience. for Ega, Yan, & Dany Trully Thank to Take Care Everythings!. Dani Yudistira2024-12-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The reason I visited the island located east of Lombok, or west of the island of Labuhan Bajo. Yes, it is the island of Sumbawa which is very authentic with its nature and sea tourism. What amazed me and added to my experience was when, I visited the sea tour in the bay of saleh, swimming with a very friendly whale shark, I was very happy to have visited the island of Sumbawa. And I used the services of a local agency, (SUMBAWAADVENTOUR). Thank you so much. You're a great service. Daniela Gomez2024-11-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We went on the tour with Dan. His english is great, he was super nice and took great care of us. We got to see 7 whale sharks!!! It was a dream come true. 100% recommend. 10/10 Steven Holt2024-11-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m glad that we went with Sumbawa Adventour! Ega, the tour operator, is extremely professional and kind. He’s making sure everything's arranged prior to departure and is looking after you throughout the trip. He'd do everything to make your trip special. Also, his English is great - and i truly enjoyed our conversations! It’s important to know that while the encounters with the whale sharks are natural (you wont always see them), the fishermen keep them close by feeding them. So one remark we have - and it’s a collective responsibility of the fishermen and tour operators to ensure that the whale sharks are treated respectfully. Some people would touch and/or kick the fish with their fins. Also avoid over tourism to conserve and keep these moments with these magnificent giants special. Overall, if i come back again I’ll make sure to visit Ega (and obv the whale sharks) and can wholeheartedly recommend his tour.Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 65 reviewsVerified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
