Reviews
Good guide and good person
We asked at our hotel in Ruteng for a two day trip to Wae Rebo, they contacted us with Filan, and some hours later we were doing the trip with him to this incredible village. He made communication with the people there easy, and he encouraged us to help them selecting coffee, harvesting coffee and oranges…
He answered to all the questions we asked him, and there were quite a lot. Great knowledge and lot of fun!
We have really good memories of the two days we spent with Filan, thank you!!
Great guide, good fun with kids
For my two children, aged 8 and 6, Flores means Filan!
We used him to help us co-ordinate and guide us to Wae Rebo.
Filan is a really lovely, genuine, generous guy.
Flores’ tourism infrastructure is still in the early stages and I think that’s part of its appeal. It also makes it a bit frustrating for independent travellers who like to arrange trips/tours/excursions for themselves.
Filan was a real fixer. His English is very good. He is very proud of his culture and heritage and wants to share it in a very authentic way.
If you are flexible and like embarking on adventures where every minute is NOT planned out – Filan is the man.
