Gerard D' Gama in Flores, Indonesia

I am a private tour guide, professional and experienced in the field of my expertise. I work with pleasure in the Lesser Sunda Archipelago territory since 1998.

I work in this territory most of the time, and guiding people around such as Komodo National Park, Flores island, Lembata island, Alor island, Timor island, Sabu-Rote islands and Sumba island.

Licensed in Indonesia, I can offer a specific service, adapted to your wishes.

After 2 years at tourism training center and the school of the tourism industry for 3 years in travel management and tour guide my favourite period is the 19th century.

I worked in Bali and in Maumere, Flores, and now I spend most of my time guiding foreign visitors from one island to another along the Lesser Sunda Arcipelago.

I can offer tours in English, or Dutch, as you like !

As you will see, my passion is to show my islands, and its people, nature and culture, but I see my job as a mutual exchange of cultures, between the persons I meet, and myself.
