Medan & Lake Toba Travel Notes

✈️ Flight: AirAsia 🏨 Hotels: 2 nights @ Romlan Samosir (Lake Toba) 2 nights @ Medan Grand Central Premier 🚗 Transport: Airport → Lake Toba: Got a private car for 700K IDR (later found shared taxis for 200K/pax). Budget option: Bus to Medan AMPLAS terminal → transfer to Parapat (price unknown). ⛴️ Lake Toba Ferries: Parapat: Large car ferries (~18-20K/pax, book online/agents). Tiga Raja: Passenger-only boats (~25K/pax, drops you at hotel piers). 🏝️ Samosir Island Tips: Stay 2 nights, rent a motorbike (120-150K/day). Highlights: Panoramic hill views, Batak villages. Missed waterfalls (all on mainland). 🍽️ Food Recs (Tuk Tuk area): Andrian Rumah Makan Nasional (affordable local dishes) Widya Specialist Lobster Food (seafood, pricier but good) 🚕 Return to Medan: Shared taxi (180K/pax from Tiga Raja). 🏙️ Medan City: Limited sights—focused on eating & massages. Use Gojek for transport. Food is pricey (even vs. Malaysia)! 🍖 Medan Eats: OnDo Grill Batak (delicious roasted pork, slightly pricey) Jalan Selat Panjang (Chinatown street food, budget-friendly) Sate Nasional (cheap satay stall) Tengah People & Place (trendy café/restaurant) 💆 Massage: Kakiku Sei Serayu (professional & cheap). 🚆 To Airport: Train (40K/pax). #Medan #LakeToba #TravelGuide #Indonesia #BudgetTravel
