SamosirAdvanture

  NINNA.ID -It was a great honor for me trusted by Panorama to guide a family from Holland to explore North Sumatra for 8 days and 7 nights. The family said it was their first time exploring  North Sumatra . They knew about Bali and some of them already visited Bali. They said that Bali is over tourism. They do not like crowded places. They want to visit quiet, beautiful and should be ecotourism. These Dutch tourists move to Indonesia hoping to escape the heat of their country in the summer, but they got a surprise, Medan temperatures can hit as high as 30 degrees. Although the temperature hot for them, we spent first-day Medan city tour visiting Tjong A Fie, and walked around Merdeka Walk, to Tip-Top Restaurant and other places. See Orang Utan On the second day, they visited Bukit Lawang to see Orang Utan, and Monkey and trekking in the Jungle. Though the roads were a bit bumpy, the journey was well worth it.   We took photo together in Bukit Lawang[/ca...

  NINNA.ID -There are several ways to get from Kualanamu Airport to Samosir Island. But the cheapest one Ninna recommended using a taxi to Kualanamu Airport. There are several taxis served or available at Kualanamu Airport. The cost to get into a taxi is IDR 250.000 per person. The taxi can load 6 people including the driver. It means for 5 people IDR 1.250.000. But just say there are only 1-2 people that are ready to go to Samosir Island. You will need another passenger until it loads 5 passengers from Kualanamu Airport to Samosir Island. Otherwise, you can book one taxi that cost IDR 1.250.000. If only 2 people that ready to go and you agree to share IDR 750.000 for both of you. Each of you costs IDR 750.000.

Danau Toba sangat luas. Terdiri dari 8 kabupaten. Jika kamu hanya punya libur dua hari rasanya tak cukup untuk eksplorasi banyak hal di Danau Toba. Jika kamu berjiwa petualang maka Samosir yang terbaik untuk kamu jelajahi eksotisme Danau Toba. Tujuh kabupaten lainnya juga menawarkan hal yang sama. Hanya, jika kamu ingin dapat pengalaman banyak dalam waktu singkat maka Samosir pilihan terbaik buatmu. Ini bukan sekadar promosi Samosir belaka. Sejumlah teman dan tamuku juga menyatakan hal serupa.
