North Sumatra · Guided by Locals
Wild. Real.
Yours.
Orangutan treks, Batak villages, Medan street food, and Lake Toba — crafted for curious travellers who want the real thing.
"Your local friend in Sumatra."
We're a Singapore-based couple with deep roots in Medan. We built Sumatra Roots because the North Sumatra we know — the orangutans at dawn, the hidden hawker stalls, the Batak highlands — deserves better than a generic package tour.
