A Moluccas tour takes you to the most beautiful beaches and pristine coral reefs of Southeast Asia. A Moluccas island holiday typically begins in Ambon or Ternate – small but central islands that, thanks to their respective airports, serve as the perfect starting point for discovery tours. After the long journey, the exploration tours start either after a restful night in a comfortable hotel or immediately, as soon as you've picked up your suitcase from the baggage carousel. Either way: We're ready when you are to explore the diverse facets of this unique archipelago on your tour.

By boat, you'll reach hidden bays and remote islands that few tourists ever get to see. Come and discover this exciting island archipelago!

A Moluccas round trip enables you to experience the historic Spice Islands of Indonesia in all their wonderful facets. Islands such as Ternate, Tidore, Banda Neira and Ambon tell the fascinating story of the spice trade, which once shaped world empires. Even today, you can explore historic fortresses and experience firsthand the colonial past of these once so significant islands. Today, the eastern Indonesian archipelago forms an absolute highlight of any round trip east of the Wallace Line, not least due to its breathtaking landscape as well as its fascinating history and enchanting underwater world.

Off the Beaten Path

While traveling between the islands of this exciting archipelago, you'll be overwhelmed by the attraction and beauty of the Spice Islands. However, be aware: you're visiting a very remote island world. Your familiar comforts such as hotels and regulated transportation are not part of the daily routine here. Therefore, be prepared for spontaneous adjustments to given circumstances. However, we're certain that the unplanned events will also contribute to unforgettable vacation impressions.

Our Moluccas tours not only take you to historically significant sites; they also lead you to hidden lagoons and secluded beaches, where you can explore the pristine underwater world while diving and snorkeling, through remote villages with people who sometimes haven't yet seen a stranger, and even more remote jungle regions where you can observe unique endemic animal and bird species or be very close to active volcanoes. Each visit to the different islands reveals new facets of this tropical paradise that has preserved its authentic culture and nature over centuries.
