You can feel that it’s been made with love, it’s a very complete guide for North Sumatra. We can’t wait to be there!”

“I purchased Carly & Agung’s e-book as soon as it was first available. It is the perfect resource for our trip planning with practical “one stop ” advice that would otherwise require multiple (frustrating) searches.
It is professionally written with stunning visuals that continue to get me so excited about travel next year. With so many great suggestions I think we may be staying and travelling for a looong time.”

WHO EVEN ARE WE - AND WHY TRUST US WITH YOUR SUMATRA TRAVEL PLANNING?

Horas (welcome) everyone to Exploring Sumatra! We are Agung and Carly – an Indonesian/Kiwi couple living smack-bang in the middle of Lake Toba in North Sumatra.

Carly first visited Sumatra waaaay back in 2009 and fell head over heels in love with the jungle. After 7 years of back-and-forth visits, she finally ditched NZ to live here permanently in 2016.

Agung may have been born here, but his love for this wonderful island is just as intense – how could it not be when you grow up in an idyllic jungle village!? Lucky for us, that enchanting village eventually introduced us, and we’ve spent the last 8 years exploring Sumatra together, now from our home base on stunning Samosir Island.

Over that time, we started our website and YouTube channel and began sharing the Sumatra love! We have helped hundreds of people discover Sumatra and plan incredible adventures throughout the island.

We don’t just write about Sumatra, we LIVE it! As a former solo female traveller and a local traveller, we have firsthand experience of the challenges involved in navigating one of the most stunning off-the-beaten-path destinations in Indonesia.

We genuinely believe that a trip to Sumatra can be a life-changing experience, and we want to encourage people to get out of their comfort zones and discover it for themselves!

We have more than a decade of active travel around North Sumatra to draw upon, and we actively stay updated on the essential travel info you need to know.

On top of that, there’s nothing like a truly local perspective! Last year, we even had a writer from one of the most famous travel books on the PLANET reach out to us for travel advice to update their Sumatra content! We’re the original source, and there is no other publication as comprehensive as this one. We literally wrote the book we would want to have if we were visiting for the first time.
