Si Datu Bua

A spiced-up tour through a beautiful archipelago

The limpid waters that stretch from the Banda archipelago to the islands of the Celebes define the ancient Spice Trade. This is the milieu of Si Datu Bua, part of Silolona Sojourn’s fleet of phinisi. Authentic colours, textures and styles derived from the cultures they embody are the leitmotif of the three suites. Following sunny skies and sibilant seas, Si Datu Bua also heads to Raja Ampat, Eastern Flores, the Savu Sea, Tribal Papua and the Baliem Valley as well as the Komodo National Park.
