A private-guide house for Sumba

Sumba luxury tour, guided from 3 to 8 days across four regions

What we sell is simple: a private guide, a private 4x4 and a luxury lodge base, arranged by how many nights you have and which part of the island you want to see. West, Southwest, Central and East Sumba, each with its own gateway and pace.

Prices are quoted on request for your dates, duration, guest count and inclusions.

FAQ

Short answers before you write to us

How is a Sumba tour priced, and why no total?

IndonesiaJuara's Sumba Private Trip 4D3N is priced from USD 390 per person (8 guests) to USD 700 per person (2 guests), depending on group size, with hotel twin share, entrance fees and meals included, per its table labelled 2025, as listed on IndonesiaJuara (checked 2026-09-16). Prices for your trip are quoted on request for your dates, duration, guest count, lodge and inclusions, so we never print a combined total.

Which lodge suits which region?

NIHI Sumba and Lelewatu are in Wanokaka, West Sumba. Cap Karoso is on Karoso beach in South-West Sumba, about a 50-minute drive from Tambolaka airport (TMC), as listed on Cap Karoso (checked 2026-09-16). Central and East bases, and Maringi Eco Resort routing, are confirmed on quote.

When is Pasola?

We do not publish a fixed Pasola date; the operator confirms the date on booking. Plan the Pasola VIP module around a confirmed date only.

How do I get from Bali to Tambolaka?

There are daily flights from Denpasar, Bali (DPS) to Tambolaka, Sumba (TMC); airline schedules are subject to change, as listed on NIHI Sumba (checked 2026-09-16). We check the options when we quote instead of printing a timetable.

Is a guided tour workable with children?

A family trip is a candidate on request: the operator confirms whether the route, driving days and activities suit your children when it quotes.
