Mentawai
islands Trek Adventure Travel is the specialist for trek, trekking,
cultural tours, ecotourism and adventure travel in Siberut, Mentawai,
Indonesia.
Located 130
kilometers off the west coasts of Sumatra preserve to this day
an extraordinary animist and shamanist culture.
A
virgin trek territory…
Siberut Island,
with no tourist facilities, has been spared by mass tourism.The
rare travelers who venture inside the island have to cope with
the lack of transportation means, the lack of guides and porters
and also with the difficulty of connecting with a Mentawai clan.
It is therefore a virgin trekking territory and it is this very
territory we are offering to you today, in collaboration with
certain Mentawai clans. A land we wish to preserve with respect
and introduce into the 21st century through responsible tourism.
…and
a reliable team.
Our treks benefit
from the experience of the founder of the company, who has organized
expeditions in the Arctic, Africa and Asia, for over 25 years.
Our Indonesian, French and English tour-leaders speak English
and Indonesian, and most also speak Mentawai.Their mission is
to introduce the traveler to the Mentawai culture. An English
speaking Mentawai guide handles the trip’s technical organization,
in partnership with a rimata, a Mentawai family chief.
