Overview

Step into a world where myth meets science. This tour takes you to two of Flores’ most iconic sites.

Witness the Living Geometry of Lingko Cara
Begin at Lingko cara . ascend to the highlands of Ruteng to behold the Lingko Cara spiderweb rice fields. Unlike any other terraces, these fields radiate in perfect circles from a central altar; a sacred design created centuries ago to ensure fair land distribution. It’s a breathtaking testament to Manggarai wisdom.

Journey to the Realm of the “Hobbit”
Next, Liang Bua, the limestone cave where Homo floresiensis; a tiny, extinct human species was discovered. Walk the echoing chambers where they lived 50,000 years ago, hunting dwarf elephants. It’s a rare chance to touch prehistory.

Activity itinerary

Labuan Bajo (Pass by)

Your tour begins with a convenient pickup at your specified location, followed by a scenic 4-hour journey to Ruteng.

Ruteng

  • 1h
Your first stop is Lingko Cara; a breathtaking expanse of rice fields uniquely shaped like a giant spider’s web. A short climb up a gentle hill rewards you with a sweeping view of the rice paddies' intricate patterns. From this vantage point, you'll not only capture the perfect photo but also hear your guide brings to life the history and tradition woven into every curve of these unique and remarkable fields.

Liang Bua Cave

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
After visiting the Lingko Cara spiderweb ricefield, then driving to Liang Bua Hobbit Cave; the limestone cave where archaeologists discovered the “The Hobbit” Homo floresiensis. Standing in the cavern’s mouth, you imagine the tiny humans who once sheltered here. Here you will hear from the tour guide the history of this cave and the discoveries of Flores Hobbit fossils by archaeologists.

Labuan Bajo (Pass by)

After visiting these special places, we’ll make our way back to Labuan Bajo, and drop you off at your hotel with a full heart and the hope that the road will bring you back to Flores again one day. This is where our journey together end, but the memories, we believe, will stay with you long after.
