Ikat Ridge Private focuses on immersive, private travel around Sumba. Expect sunrise views over
rolling hills, traditional weaving demonstrations, and quiet moments at hidden beaches. Your day can
begin with a guided trek to a coastal viewpoint and end with a private dinner featuring local flavors.
Our guided treks range from short village walks to full-day ridge routes. Guides highlight local
history, ikat weaving techniques, and native flora. Most treks start early to catch cool morning light
and return before dusk.
