Why bring a hard disk instead of a flash drive?

The documentation files are usually over 32 GB, and a flash drive transfers too slowly. The files are copied on the third day of the trip.

Which mobile network works in Sumba?

Telkomsel is a good mobile provider in Sumba.

Do I need trekking shoes?

Yes. Trekking shoes or trekking sandals are required; the paths to the waterfalls can be slippery and steep.

Is drinking water provided?

Yes, mineral water is included throughout the trip.

Do I need to bring toiletries?

A bath kit is optional; bring one if you need it.

What if I take regular medication?

Bring your personal medicines. With a condition such as asthma, hypertension or heart disease, consult your doctor before the trip.
