Once you land at the airport you will be met by the representative who will lead you straight to the hotel where you will stay overnight and rest ready for the start of the activities. You will however have a free program for the evening in order to relax and get a feel for the area. 

Day 2 Toraja Highland Tour
On the second day you will eat your breakfast in the hotel and then you will make the guided trip using air conditioned transport to the Toraja Highland where you will visit the tombs of the royal family and at Suaya. These are one of the most unusual and interesting sight of the Four Day Toraja Tour as the tombs are located in hollowed out cave high in the cliffs that overlook the sea. To be left in these tombs is a great honor where your soul will be able to move from the cliffs protected and guided by the statues that stand at the mouth of the cave. There are complex reasons behind this as the soul will not leave the body unless it is away from the home and if buried the soul will be trapped so the dead are placed in stone tombs or in a hanging grave.

Day 3 Toraja Highland Tour
On the third day of the Four Day Toraja Tour you will visit the village of Palawa where you will see the amazing houses that resemble the traditional boats that have been used by the Toraja throughout history. At over 1355meters above sea level you will be able to see the views for miles around and enjoy them in mild and cool mountain climates. Here there are some amazing graves as well as some amazing view spots and strange little villages that all support this wonderful culture unchanged to this day.

You will have a guide with you at all times who will explain all about the reasons behind the sights that you see and help with communications as well as show you to all of the areas that you wish to see.
