Luxury Java Holidays

Home to Indonesia's capital city and some of the region's most dramatic landscapes, Java is a land of contrasts and one of the most fascinating islands in Asia. Central Java is dominated by hundreds of volcanoes, many of which are still active. And then, of course, there's Krakatau - the world's most famous and most destructive volcano. To the south are the cities of Yogyakarta and Solo - the homeland of the ethnic Javanese people and the epicentre of their art, culture and language. Nearby is the giant 9th century Buddhist temple of Borobudur - a definite 'must' on any sightseeing list. Head east and discover the huge volcanic mountain range of Gunung Bromo - a stunning sunrise walk to its summit being a particular highlight. And when you're ready for a spot of relaxation, enjoy the warm surf and sandy beaches at Pangandaran - the perfect end to the perfect holiday!
