Indonesia Kuala namu International Airport to Lake Toba, Hotel Melissa Palace, Inna Parapat Resort

5 Days 4 nights free and easy vacation to the natural wonder Lake Toba - Northern Sumatra of Indonesia. Heard that Toba was famous honeymoon location 30 years back (1988).

The island "Pulau Samosir" has almost the same size as Singapore. By now most of you should have known Singapore, after the TrumpKim Summit (#trumpkimsummit) which host in Singapore.

Day 1
- Kuala namu International Airport to Lake Toba Parapat by Mini-Van.
- One night stay at Hotel Melissa Palace Parapat.
- Search for local tour and transport.
- Walk around Parapat and visited Inna Parapat Resort


Exit arrival hall and turned right. Observed for staff walking around wearing white
uniform with the company name "Nice" transport service. We were charged 100k per 
person to share on this (above) mini-van. Price included expressway toll fee.

The expressway was quiet.
While we reached their village, traffic started heavier.

It took us about 4 hours to reach Parapat

We stayed for a night at Hotel Melissa Palace. It seem like we were the only guest 
staying that night (Fasting month). We preferred to have the night at Island Samosir,
but worried that we not managed to catch last ferry (7pm). 

*Room was huge, but bed/pillow was not comfortable. The bed seem to have bugs as both
of us felt itchy. Room was stuffy with no air-con and fan.

I chose this hotel because of this island view.
But i would suggest you consider "Inna Parapat resort".

The best thing about this hotel was this scenery view (evening) and near the ferry port.

Near the ferry port

Evening was spent looking for local tour near to hotel. Then we have our dinner at
the same stall. (25k for a plate of mee goreng and 6k a bottle of mineral water)
