About This Experience

This is for those that need a little effort and adventure with their tour. You're going to climb Timor-Leste's highest peak. Whilst it's a walk up a reasonably well-formed path with some washouts to navigate you won't need a map, but you will need a decent level of fitness, and you will need to come prepared with torch and wind-proof, weather-proof clothing and drinking water. It can even freeze occasionally at the summit. You could get wind, fog or rain. Or all three. Or you more likely will be rewarded with a stunning sunrise and views over the many ridges and ranges and on down to the ocean on both sides of Timor.

I had a wonderful time in Timor Leste with this travel agency! My tour guide Roberto was 🔛🔝! He was very flexible, teached many things from his culture and country and was over all very professional and nice. He also managed to arrange me an extra tour to Balibo on a short notice 👍🏻. Totally recommend this travel agency and this tour guide! 👍🏻

Had the pleasure of having Vilter take me on a tour to Balibo. Saw many things on the way there and when I was there. The professionalism and quality of the tour was well worth the money. Can't recommend this service enough.
