Hi! My name is Christoper. Thank you for visiting my profile! I was born and grew up in Jakarta, capital city of Indonesia. But my parents, both sides, are Minahasan, a native tribe in the Northern part of Sulawesi. I moved to Sulawesi since 2008, and I really prefer to live here. Why? The people, the society, and the nature and also the foods are so amazing. I invite you to come and prove it! To know me better, let me tell you a little bit of my background. I work part time in an NGO engaged in social work. And because of this job, I love to do volunteering work. My future goal is to be a Pilot, and now am saving money to enter the school. I am also a certified drone pilot, enthusiast in photography and videography, and this hobby bring me to seek unique places. I even have my own YouTube channel: Ronronesia You may see some of my works also in my IG: lensofkryv My English skill was developed since I was in elementary school. I am used also to being a translator in my workplace and in my church. In my opinion, my guiding experiences are quite rich. I have been a freelance tour guide since 2017 and have been guiding for American, Canadian, Europeans, Australians, and Asians. Until 2023, I've been guiding across East Indonesia, including the whole Sulawesi to Halmahere and Morotai in North Moluccas, Waigeo and Misool in Raja Ampat, Labuan Bajo, Flores, Timor, and Rote in East Nusa Tenggara. Of course I am not a perfect man, but. . . sincerity and wholeheartedly has become the foundation of my life. I will do my best to be your tour guide :) My home town Manado, located in a bay make this city has many choices of seafood. The foods here are also well-known with the rich of spice. But not only the tasteful of the meal that will make you comfortable in my hometown, Manado is famous because of the friendliness of the habitant combined with its gorgeous scenery of nature. Beautiful beaches, Marvelous lake, Amazing volcano, Indigenous animals, Exotic fruits, Unique Culture, and many more. If you are a vegan or gluten/lactose intolerance, don't be worried. I know exactly which restaurants we can enjoy together. Can't wait to show you around. I am open to customized all my tours and to provide personalized experiences, just leave me a message and I will be happy to accommodate your requests. Looking forward to be your guide. Christoper (Beside North Sulawesi tours, I am available to escort you to visit the Best of Gorontalo, the Best of South and Central Sulawesi, North Maluku / Moluccas, Raja Ampat, East Nusa Tenggara, even beyond) ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ I am a certified Tourist Guide by Ministry of Tourism of Indonesia, an active member of Indonesian Tourist Guide Association, and an experienced private trip planner and organizer (since 2017).

Overview of your Manado tour

About 1 hours drive from Bitung cruise port (~2h from Manado), to reach the Park we will pass the expanse of coconut grove, through hills and valleys, an absolutely epic Minahasa landscape. This National Park is established to protect endemic animals from becoming extinct. Located at the foot of Dua Saudara Mountain, Tangkoko National park has much variety of hardwood trees and unusual plant life. The animal life is also quite varied, you can expect to meet Tarsius tarsier (small primate), black tailless macaque, and even Hornbill, Kingfisher, сusсus (marsupial family), and hundreds of animals in their wildlife. What a great experience to see the animals in their natural life. There is an exotic black sand beach to enjoy, created by the volcanic activity from Mount Tangkoko. Sometimes you can even see a group of macaques hanging out on this beach. Make sure you bring equipment for hiking such as a long-sleeve shirt, raincoat, trousers, shoes. ** Feel free to contact me to customize this tour
