Aman Cruises. Indonesia ...
Aman Cruise. Indonesia
By Posh Voyage

During my last trip to Indonesia, I discovered the new product that Aman just debuted, a unique cruise experience called Amandira and Amanikan. Just when I thought Aman couldn’t get any more spectacular, they did.

Venture into the Indonesian archipelago in true fashion through one of Aman’s two cruise experiences. Both cruises set out from your home base at Amanwana, a private island resort on the island of Moyo, east of Bali. The resort offers 20 luxury tented camps perched on the edge of your own private beach. Each tent is air-conditioned, with hard wood flooring and a king-sized bed draped in flowing mosquito netting. Large banks of windows let in light and look out on jungle or beach settings. After a few nights in Amanwana, venture out on a 10-day cruise to Raja Ampat or the neighboring island of Komodo National Park.

Explore Raja Ampat, one of the world’s most diverse landscapes, where the Pacific meets the Indian Ocean. Raja Ampat encompasses thousands of islands, cays, and beaches. From climbing Mt. Pindito to privately dining on an uninhabited island, your Raja Ampat experience will be tailored expertly to your needs and desires.

Discover the fabled Komodo dragon in its UNESCO-protected homeland only 200 kilometers from the resort. Komodo National Park is also home to some of the best scuba diving in the world so start your adventure with a dive exploring the reefs around Satonda Island, which are frequented by rays and dolphins. End your expedition with an expert led trek to find the Komodo Dragons, monkeys, deer, and a cornucopia of nature.

The first of Aman’s two cruise liner options is the Amandira, a two-masted sailing ship 52 meters long. This sailing ship, which only launched in 2015, is a traditional Phinisi fishing vessel, which combines the ancient romance of the spice trade with cutting-edge contemporary amenities. Perfect for a couple looking for a blend of old-world and new-world.

The second cruise liner option is the Amanikan, a 32-meter custom built coastal cruiser. With three above-deck cabins, an expansive foredeck with bar for outdoor dining, and world-class diving facilities, Amanikan is equipped for journeys throughout the archipelago. Perfect for couples looking for a more refined cruise experience.
