Nihi Sumba trip, 8 days and 7 nights

Four nights West, three East. The full island on an open-jaw ticket, with enough time in each half to stop planning around the drive.

In short

Eight days is the only length where nothing is a compromise — both halves of the island get real time, and no day exists only to move you.

  • Two bases, four and three nights
  • Open jaw: TMC in, WGP out
  • Waterfalls and the far East coast

Day by day

How the 8 days run

A working shape, not a fixed script. Days move to suit the weather, the tides and what you actually want to see.

  1. Hotel Sinar Tambolaka 01

    Day 1 · Arrive Tambolaka

    Land at TMC, private transfer to the coast. Nothing else scheduled.

    Hotel Sinar, Tambolaka

  2. Peaked thatch roofs of Prai Ijing village, West Sumba 02

    Day 2 · West Sumba

    Wanokaka villages, the coast, and a stop at Prai Ijing.

    Prai Ijing, West Sumba

  3. Sunset over the coast at Pero, Kodi 03

    Day 3 · Kodi coast

    Ratenggaro and Pero, with time at the beach rather than a dash between two of them.

    Pero beach, Kodi

  4. Weekuri lagoon from the air, Southwest Sumba 04

    Day 4 · Weekuri and the far West

    The lagoon early, before the day crowds, then the cliffs at Mbawana.

    Weekuri lagoon, Kodi

  5. A road winding through the Sumba hills 05

    Day 5 · Cross the island

    The long transfer east, broken by stops through the highlands.

    The cross-island road

  6. A rider on a Sumba horse in the Wairinding hills, East Sumba 06

    Day 6 · Wairinding and the East

    First light on the Wairinding hills, then the villages inland from Waingapu.

    Wairinding, East Sumba

  7. The terraced falls at Tanggedu, East Sumba 07

    Day 7 · Waterfalls

    Tanggedu or Waimarang, depending on the road and the rain. Both are a proper day out.

    Tanggedu, East Sumba

  8. Open savanna on the road into Waingapu, East Sumba 08

    Day 8 · Depart

    Transfer back to Waingapu for the flight out.

    The road back

The waterfall day depends on the road. In the wet stretch, December to March, we say so before you book rather than turning back at the track.

How 8D7N is priced

There is no published band for this length, so there is none on this page. Here is what moves the number instead.

  • Group size

    The single biggest lever. Per-person cost falls steadily to eight, then rises again when a second car is needed.

  • Routing and flights

    Open-jaw and two-base routes carry transfer costs a single-base trip does not.

  • Where you sleep

    Standard hotels are inside the quote. NIHI Sumba, Lelewatu and Cap Karoso are quoted separately, on confirmation.

The published rate card covers 4D3N, 5D4N and 6D5N — every figure dated and sourced. See it here: /nihi-sumba-trip-cost/
