You should explore the countryside and the villages. The colours and the views are amazing. People are warm and hospitable wherever you go. They are very cultural and want to keep it that way.
The food is varied and can be delicious if you do your research before you get there.

Rantepao is a perfect location to explore the Torajah area; Torajah is a mainly christian area on a mainly islamitic Island, with very typical ceremonies, often related to death and funerals.
We took the bus from Makassar which takes about 10 hours to get to Rantepao, but it is an interesting journey.

Amazing and outlandish culture and scenery surrounding the city. Traditional housing can even be seen within the city centre. The scenery outside Rantapao is glorious, and travel with a guide highly recommended to discover the intricacies of this very different culture, provide local employment, avoid causing offence or excessive traipsing on private/family land, and because a decent map is hard to find.
Take a day (or a few) in the city itself. It is safe and surprisingly sweet when you slow down and take it in. As in so much of Sulawesi, people are gentle, honest and kind.

Perfect place to stay (better a bit out of the city center) to enjoy nature and explore the area of Toraja. The city itself not much to do except some good restaurants but a great starting point for excursions in the Toraja region.
loved everything about this place - it is not fancy, but it is very clean and the Hostess is fantastic. we arrived late and she made dinner for us when we got there. The traditional meal she cooked the next day was also great, chicken in bamboo. There is a full bathroom outside the house with a hot water shower, western toilet and two sinks - very clean. The traditional house would not be able to accommodate a bathroom in the building itself. This is an experience to stay in real Toraja house - it is not a fancy hotel - but it is great!!
The place has everything you need - a great and affordable setup for domestic and international travellers with hot water, really delicious and filling breakfast options for an extra 25.000 and 24 hour free tea, coffee and water refill. The owners, Rosalina and Enos are lovely - they helped us with any questions we had and stored our luggage when we went trekking. Because it's a homestay it's a much nicer experience than a generic hotel. The place has a simple charm to it with views of rice field and is very comfortable.
Staying in a tongkonan is a once in a lifetime experience, Aldi and his family do their best to make sure you have a pleasant stay in their homestay, i had a good time. This special place is not far from Rantepao, but in the countryside, so the atmophere is quiet and relaxed, i even had the chance to have real indonesian/toraja dinner and breakfast with them. You can also have a glimpse of real toraja life when they show you how they feed their animals or collect the local beverage from the trees.
Probably the best place and experience we've ever had. It's a bit more expensive than your regular accommodation but if you can spend an extra 10 euros a night come here, it's so so worth it. If you've been traveling for a while in SE Asia this will feel like a 5 star hotel. The host is so accommodating, her tour was incredible and the food is the best we've had in Indonesia. Hope some day we can come back here.
This homestay was wonderful! The host was very kind, helpful, flexible and an amazing cook (breakfast and dinner). She organized a guide and motorbike, which was perfect for the 4 days we stayed with Manai. The homestay is located a bit outside busy Rantepao surrounded by traditional Toraja-houses, in a quite (exept the chickens) and green evironement - beautiful! We would recommend the stay anytime.
We spend a fantastic time at Mama Tia Family.
The family is very kind and helpful for everything.
They guide us to discover the toraja culture showing us the funeral and wedding.
Thanks to Yansen for his explanation and for being happy all the time 😃
They also have scooter and can come to pick you up from your bus when you arrive at Rantepao.
I really recommend this homestay
Thank you again
Riana and her family were simply the best hosts I’ve met! I was there with my 3 months old baby girl. Her husband Mr. Daud offered a great 3 day tour for a very reasonable price. Anything we needed, they were there for us. Mr. Daud also took us to the bus station by car. If I ever come back to Rantepao, I’ll stay here and will recommend further.
SARAH, the owner, is amazing. If you stay anywhere else in Rantepao you have dropped the ball.
I real homestay and felt like party of the FAM.
Especially, making dinner with CHEF Melissa. I got the Sambal recipe I have been looking for!
There is a reason the Lonely Planet highlights the Castle for Toraja! Don’t stay anywhere else!!!!
Conveniently located in Rantepao, and a good base for your local tours. It was clean and had a pool for cooling off and restaurants on site. The property was very pretty! A good option if you are looking for more than just the basic accommodations elsewhere in the region. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
The accommodation was well located, near Rantepao, and had all the amenities a person might need on a trip like this. The room has everything you need, the bathroom likewise, and the people are super friendly and eager to offer you all their belongings and things as if you were at home.
The room is clean and the space is huge.
The owner Mr Raub serves a delicious breakfast, especially that glass of juice,better then outside restaurants.
Honestly, it's worth it then you paid.
Like other Sulawesi people I have met, Mr Raub is a very helpful and friendly owner too.
Pak Yuli was very helpful and had taken care of us very well
it was like we were staying at home
his guidance for the local visits and weather updates were very helpful
language was never an issue
I would recommend this Hotel to other friends and others on booking.com
This is a perfect place to stay for exploring the Toraja area and the hotel was obviously designed to compliment the surroundings. The staff are pleasant and try to be helpful. The dining menu is limited but the food is better than you expect it to be.
Nice place close to center in Rantepao.
We could stay in our room until the eve to catch the night bus without any extra cost.
Good food, but takes long to prepare so order in advance.
Large room, good shower.
beautiful hotel in very quiet place with the spacy rice field view. Also the location is very comfortable. Super clean room, great food from its restaurant, caring staff,. definitely recommended.
