We met Melki at Lucas Lodge. He suggested a tour - part motor bike, part trek - to four Ngada villages, followed by a visit to the Malange hotsprings. This is a fairly standard offer but what made it exceptional was Melki. He is a great guide. His English is excellent, and he was full of informations on the Ngada community structure and history. He also went out of his way during our trek to identify for us clove, eucalyptus, cinnamon, the root used in the making of tiger balm, etc. Though he is serious about his work, Melki is also a lot of fun to be with, and so is his colleague Christian. We recommend them both. Melki can be reached via WhatsApp at 082237599, or ask for him at Lucas

Worth staying overnight here, spending time to get to know the people and the environment. Especially those who like photography so much. Lots of things that can be photographed here. It’s such an amazing place. I love it.

Renting a motorbike at the tourist information in Bajawa, we got to know William who told us about Belaraghi Village and the trek. It did sound like a great thing to do so we booked the tour with him for the next day! During the walk to the village we got to learn a lot about the local plants, saw cacao, coffee, chilli, ginger, papaya, vanilla, banana, ...and many more. Arriving to the village, we were introduced to the family that we were to stay with. After that there was tea and coffee. Later we we being introduced to the ancestors of the family by way of chicken sacrifice. Very interesting to watch and learn. The next day William took us around the village again to explain about the different houses and symbols. We felt this your was great value for money. William is a great guide. We felt he has a very good connection to the villagers and is genuinely interested in helping them preserve their traditional way of life. Here is Williams WhatsApp and email address if you wish to contact him: m +62 81239844115 e [email protected]

Riung is a remote fish town far from flores main roads. You can reach it either from Bojawa or from Ende. Both variants take about 5 hours. I strongly advise you NOT to take bojawa - riung bus because it’s a nightmare, seriously. The road is literally DESTROYED in some parts. We ve been moving so slowly - about 5 km per hour. But if you still decided to take this adventure make sure to ask your host in Bojawa which bus operates today: the one that reaches Riung in 5 hours or in 7. If it’s going to be the second variant then you’ll experience a short(2 hours) lap to the small village where roads are even more terrible)) Our bus broke in this village and we had to change a wheel. We stayed in a Riung guesthouse. It s a nice place with AC but without hot shower. The owner Paul is a farmer that took a credit to build this hotel. He has to pay it back in 15 years. I tend to believe him although he might be saying it just to manipulate my final review score on booking. Anyway, he cares a lot about every guest and it is wonderful. Paul helped us to organize a tour to visit 17 marine islands. It costs 600 thousand for 2 people. It is super cheep comparing to snorkeling tours Labuan-Bajo. A captain Luca cooked a really wonderful dinner for us at the beach: grilled tuna(incredible!!), eggplant, noodles and rice. Snorkeling is amazing there however there were some trash on the beaches. That’s a shame. By the way, the Riung itself is FULL of trash. I ve never seen so many trash in any other city in Flores. We’ve collected some trash and that s my advice to you - please pick up some plastic bottles! Paul said that every weekend all people from the village go and clean the islands and that most of the trash comes from the sea. Seems like the government does’t care about Riung at all so people try to clean this place by themselves... We had dinner at two places - Pato Resto and Cafe del Mar. Both restaurants are great however we liked Pato Resto a bit more. Riung is a hidden gem in Flores - but it needs improvement. The city is poor and dirty the tourist facilities are limited. The roads are terrible. I hope in the future this city will be prosperous.
