Rafflesia Tour

Day tour takes you on an adventure through the jungle to discover the world’s largest flower, the Rafflesia. One of only three national flowers in Indonesia (the other two being white jasmine and moon orchid), the Rafflesia is very rare as it only blooms for 4-5 days after a gestation period of 9 months. So if your trip to Sumatra happens to coincide with its flowering you are very lucky indeed.
To increase your chances of seeing the Rafflesia, contact us beforehand. We can often predict blooming periods, typically during the rainy season, and will check if it coincides with your visit.
