Indonesia Handbook

The second edition of this handbook explores all that the diverse country of Indonesia has to offer island by island. From Sumatra in the west through Java, Bali, Sulawesi and Nusa Tenggara to Maluku, the group of "Spice Islands" in the east, Indonesia spreads over 5000 kilometres of tropical seas linking Asia with Australia. The guidebook has been written by writers and travellers with extensive knowledge of the region. It contains information on: how to plan a trip and maximize time available; highlights of each island; how to get from island to island by plane and ferry; useful words and phrases; where to stay and where to eat; and best beaches and where to surf. Background information is included and the countries covered are: Sumatra, Java, Bali, Lombok, Kalimantan, Maluku, Nusa Tenggara, Sulawesi and Irian Jaya.
