Samosir Guide

   NINNA.ID -There are several ways to get from Kualanamu Airport to  Samosir  Island. But the cheapest one Ninna recommended using a taxi to Kualanamu Airport. There are several taxis served or available at  Kualanamu  Airport. The cost to get into a taxi is IDR 150.000 per person.  The taxi  can load 6 people including the driver. It means for 5 people IDR 750.000. But just say there are only 1-2 people that are ready to go to Samosir Island. You will need another passenger until it loads 5 passengers from Kualanamu Airport to  Samosir  Island. Otherwise, you can book one  taxi  that cost IDR 750.000. If only 2 people that ready to go and you agree to share IDR 750.000 for both of you. Each of you costs IDR 375.000.

    NINNA.ID -It was a great honor for me trusted by Panorama to guide a family from Holland to explore North Sumatra for 8 days and 7 nights. The family said it was their first time exploring  North Sumatra . They knew about Bali and some of them already visited Bali. They said that Bali is over tourism. They do not like crowded places. They want to visit quiet, beautiful and should be ecotourism. These Dutch tourists move to Indonesia hoping to escape the heat of their country in the summer, but they got a surprise, Medan temperatures can hit as high as 30 degrees.
