About Us
Born from a deep passion for sharing the untouched magic and legendary warmth of Banggai.
Banggai Escape was born from knowing these islands well enough to want other people to see them properly. The lagoons here are the colour people picture when they book Banggai, and reaching them without a local boatman is the hard part.
Founded by locals and hospitality enthusiasts, we bridge the gap between curious global travellers and authentic island experiences. We take care of the arrangements, from island transfers to the daily itinerary, so you can settle into the tropics without planning the logistics yourself.

Our Vision
To be the place travellers come to for Central Sulawesi: locally run trips, small groups, and islands that are still quiet.
Our Mission
To run trips that are safe and unhurried, that leave Banggai’s reefs and forests as they are, and that put money into the coastal villages on the route.

Authentic Experiences
Small creeks, village homestays and reef flats that the day-trip boats do not reach.
