I recommend to hire a guide who will also be the light for your footsteps, literally. There were 2 graves here, the cave and the mountain. The cave was dark and could be slippery during rainy season. One needs to crawl to enter the depth of the cave.The air in the cave was misty. Oxygen level was rather low for... More

Many sites in Tana Toraja are great ( we particularly liked Ke'te Kesu, Lemo and Suaya). This was one of the highlights, also because we arrived very early out of season, so that we had the caves mostly to ourselves.

Tana Toraja is easily Sulawesi's best cultural tourism destination, with burial caves, traditional houses and buffalo and pig markets all set against lush mountain scenery. Arguably, it competes with the Cordillera region of the Philippines as South East Asia's most appealing highland destination. It is a superb area for hiking and the best thing to do is just set off... More
