“The best homestay and guides in Rantepao”
+Hostel Papa Tia is more than just a place to stay. Yacob and his family make you feel part of their home. The breakfast was exceptional. The dinner was even better. The hostel also offers the best tours and guides. For 4 days we got to know a culture completly different to ours thanks to Yacob. On top of that Yacob even offered help when our flight was cancelled 4 days after we left his homestay.

+During our stay, we were made to feel very welcome by the whole family. Great local recommendations, and they can arrange trips around the area. The bedroom was comfortable and we sleeped very well. The bathrooms and communal spaces were clean and well maintained.

“Recommended”
+I definitely recommend this hostel. It's safe. Very good and clean. Hot water. Wifi. Good reakfast included. Other food can be ordered too. Private rooms. Good price. Very comfortable. The host is very nice. I would recommend him to be your guide. He knows what is going on in the area at the time. I've visited many places with him. I've stayed longer because I wanted to see every day of the funeral celebrations. Every day, different things happen. The funeral was 5 days. They can be even longer if it is a higher class family. I've stayed in Papa Tia, but if it is fully booked, someone can stay in Mama Tia. It's his son's place. When I was in a hostel in Makassar, they helped me book the bus to Rantapao. Another guide contacted me through them and offered his trips. I didn't take this offer. It would be paying someone else for what you can arrange by yourself in Rantapao with your homestay. I was happy with Jacob's (the host from Papa Tia) trips. He will advise what the options are, and people can choose what they want to visit. Jacob also helped me to organise the bus to Poso, and he helped me with communication with my next hotel. Many thanks 😊
