Discover the captivating allure of Ambon Island in Indonesia on our 12-day itineraries. Join us on a tour to this remote, beautiful, and unspoiled destination, steeped in a long and turbulent history. Ambon Island is the perfect gateway to explore the original Spice Islands, where you can witness the production of rare spices like cloves and nutmeg, snorkel over black lava streams, and trek towards lush forest waterfalls. Immerse yourself in the rich culture and natural beauty of the Moluccas, known for their archaeological sites, wildlife viewing opportunities, and relaxed activities like small ship cruises. Each day holds new adventures, from exploring unique churches to discovering the Forgotten Islands and crystal-clear waters for snorkeling. Don't miss the chance to experience Indonesia's Ring of Fire and delve into the colonial history of the region, all while enjoying the expertise of Australian author Ian Burnet.

We have used AL for decades now to plan trips. Kassandra has been with us from the start and has never disappointed. She knows our family and our quirks and is always willing to fit the trip to us. This time we made her work for the booking because of family member schedules. It has all come together for a great Christmas gift for many families.
