Being a chain of islands, the Indonesian archipelago holds a great diversity of amphibians and reptile life. Our experienced guides will take you on a journey to see with your own eyes Indonesia's herpetological diversity in their natural habitats.
Furthermore, proceeds from our tours will also be donated to herpetological conservation efforts, primarily through the Indonesia Herpetofauna Foundation.. Where possible, we try our best to involve local communities, in order for them to see the value in protecting wildlife and the environment.
