Where
is Sulawesi ?

How
safe is Sulawesi today ?
We've been frequently
asked " How safe is Sulawesi ?" and we do appreciate
yourconcern regards the communal conflict in Poso ( Central
Sulawesi ) but in fact Sulawesi is still beautiful, cultural,
friendly and peaceful as ever before.
When
is the best time to visit Sulawesi ?
You can visit Sulawesi all the year around, but as you've
probably
known that there is a rainy season and a dry season in
Indonesia.
The dry season is between Mid March and end of November.
The rainy season is between December and March.
This
doesn't mean that you can't visit Sulawesi during the rainy
season ! The chance is higher to get rain in the rainy season.
In the highland of Toraja you might get some rain showers in
the late afternoon. In the worst case it will rain half a day.
If you travel to the south-coastal area of the island, the
chance of getting rain becomes higher. In the center of the
island, it might rain all day or even a whole week in January
and February !
