SWI Tour & Travel offers Lake Toba tour programs in three price classes: Superior, Deluxe, and Executive Class, reflecting different hotel types.
In addition to package tour Medan with the hotels we offer, prospective participants can also request accommodation at a hotel of their choice, even if it's not listed. However, in many experiences, it's very possible that the travel agent won't be responsible for providing a hotel. This actually depends on the prior agreement between the two parties.
