1 JOURNEYS CRUISING THE LESSER SUNDA ISLANDS, INDONESIA Monday 14 - Wednesday 30 May nights TOUR OVERVIEW The diverse Lesser Sunda Islands, stretching eastwards from Bali, offer the most amazing landscapes and a glorious cornucopia of weaving for textile lovers. Here women not only continue to make their traditional cloth on backtension looms but continue to wear it as well. There is a kaleidoscopic variety of patterns and designs every region of every island has its own unique textile culture, its own style of dress, and its own motifs. You will explore the extraordinary ancestral traditions of these islands where textiles are the predominant form of artistic expression, still playing a central role in every significant stage of life, especially marriage and death. Some islanders still say, Without cloth we cannot marry. TOUR HIGHLIGHTS Explore the extraordinary ancestral traditions of Lesser Sunda Islands where textiles are the predominant form of artistic expression, still playing a central role in every significant stage of life Enjoy the luxury of cruising effortlessly from island to island, crossing a rugged, isolated region where travel would be difficult to organize on your own Enjoy travelling with expert guides who are researchers and collectors of Asian textiles However, change is underway in even the remotest villages, and weavers are no longer passing on their skills to the next generation. With this cruise, you will be given a unique opportunity to witness a dying art form before it is gone forever. Enjoy the luxury of cruising effortlessly from island to island, crossing a rugged, isolated region where travel by land can be difficult. Your graceful pinisi schooner, the Ombak Putih, offers access to villages and beaches that would otherwise be almost impossible to reach. Along the way there will be time to enjoy the amazing volcanic scenery, meet the villagers, visit traditional markets, buy local textiles, swim and snorkel over psychedelic coral reefs, relax and have fun. This is a fantastic, adventurous way to travel, providing memories that you will treasure for the rest of your life. British expert textile guides, David and Sue Richardson, will introduce you to each island, its people and its culture, while sharing their knowledge on the daily excursions as well as through a series of evening talks.
