PARAPAT – SAMOSIR ISLAND – BERASTAGI (B,L,D)
After breakfast, enjoy your cruise along the stunning Lake Toba. Visit the Tomok Village to see the old grave stone of King Sidabutar and continue our visit to Ambarita Village. What makes Ambarita interesting, from an anthropological standpoint, is that during ancient times the Toba Batak people of Ambarita practised a form of carnibalism. What remains today is the cluster of stone chairs where the village elders held council. Whenever an enemy was captured, the elders would invite the rulers of neighbouring villages to a conference, to determine the fate of the victim. The victim is held in behind bars under one of the houses.
Next, we proceed to Parapat for lunch and then continue to Berastagi. En-route, stop at Simarjarunjung where you may enjoy some ginger tea and pisang goreng, at your own expense.
