  Kelimutu : Adventure to the Three colored Lakes HOME  > Indonesia > Flores >    Kelimutu : Adventure to the Three colored Lakes Some people may only dream about trekking to  Mt Kelimutu  on the island of Flores with its three colored lakes, while others make it a reality. The challenging trip in a rented polished 7-seater car can make one entertained for hours because of the endless winding road.

  Labuan Bajo    HOME   > Indonesia > Flores >  Labuan Bajo On the westernmost tip of the  Island of Flores , the town of  Labuan Bajo ,  or also spelled  Labuhan Bajo  sits peacefully: a small fishing site with surprisingly comprehensive tourist facilities.
