Wandering Through Plantations
Bite-sized trip
Day 1 – Bandung to Lembang
Bandung was once a small pretty colonial town with wide boulevards and elegant colonial houses. However, due to its popularity over the years the city has expanded significantly. For this reason we’ll arrange for you to stay outside Bandung, in the nearby picturesque town of Lembang. Your resort has a large swimming pool, which is ideal to cool off in after a tour of the tea plantations.
Days 2-3 – Tea plantation tour & departure
Today you’ll explore the volcanic hills that circle Bandung and Lembang. You’ll get a first hand look into one of the biggest tea factories in West Java and the equipment used to produce the famous high quality tea of the Bandung region. Many of the methods used are the same as as the old methods from Dutch colonization. You’ll be able to see all the stages of the production process, from leaf to cup.
The next day you’ll continue travelling through mystical Java.

Bandung by bicycle
If you’re up for a bit more adventure, on two wheels, then we can arrange a bicycle tour for you. The wide roads are mostly flat with occasional slopes, making it a nice and easy-going way to discover this remote region. Along the way, your enthusiastic guide will tell you endlessly about the rich past of the city, where you can see many western influences. You’ll pass special buildings such as Gedung Sate and the old post office, where the Dutch mailbox is still in front of the door. At the end, you’ll head back to your hotel in time for lunch.
