A road winding through the Sumba hills

Sheet 40

Which trip length suits you

Six lengths, from three days on one base to eight across the whole island. The right one is decided by how far you want to reach, not by budget.

Ask the desk

In short

Three to six days stays in the west, which is where the resorts and most of what people come for sit. Seven and eight days reach the East, and need an open-jaw ticket to be worth doing.

  • 3–6 days: West Sumba
  • 7–8 days: both halves
  • Open jaw above six days

Quoted in writing

Most first trips are five days in the west. The East rewards a second visit more than it rewards a rushed first one.
