Unrivalled marine biodiversity
Raja Ampat is the ultimate natural paradise and sits high on the bucket list of many travellers, especially divers. This pristine nature reserve is renowned for its breathtaking coral reefs, crystal‑clear waters and unrivalled marine biodiversity. Nowhere on earth will you find such an extraordinary variety of fish species. The archipelago, made up of some 1,500 islands, is largely untouched by humans and is considered by many to be the most beautiful place on the planet.
Nature: the region consists of green, mountainous islands rising from an impossibly clear sea, home to the most biodiverse marine habitats in the world. Here you will find more than 600 coral species and around 1,300 fish species. The islands themselves are home to many rare and colourful bird species.
Culture: indigenous Papuan traditions, combined with outside influences, shape a culture of traditional dance and ceremonies, where the connection with nature is often central.
Adventure: a journey to Raja Ampat is an adventure in itself. It is a true paradise for divers and for those who seek remote, untouched and astonishingly beautiful places. Jungle walks, surrounded by the sounds of nature, are an unforgettable experience.
Hotels: Raja Ampat is best explored aboard one of the small‑scale luxury sailing cruises.

What our guests say
We had an unforgettable journey through Java, Bali and Moyo Island. Joey impressed us with her wonderful proposals, each perfectly aligned with the wishes of our entire family. Throughout the trip she was always there for us — even securing a table at a restaurant that had been fully booked for months. Thank you, The Orange Lotus. We will certainly return.
Fam. Bruggenwirth • Journey to Indonesia
Thank you for an unforgettable journey through Thailand and for your flawless organisation. The excursions in Bangkok and Chiang Mai were truly unique experiences, and our hotel preferences were met perfectly. And the fact that you even surprised us by arranging our favourite wine on board during our private yacht excursion in Koh Samui says everything about your eye for detail and perfection. Wonderful in every way — we look forward to travelling with you again.

A big compliment to Rosa and the entire team at The Orange Lotus. Together with our friends, we enjoyed a truly wonderful journey through Thailand. The beautiful hotels, excellent private transfers and exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly local guides made the trip unforgettable — and the excursions were genuinely special. We have never encountered a travel designer with as much expertise as Rosa; an absolute breath of fresh air.
