Founded in 2014, PT Wahana Karya Wisata—better known to travelers as WAYAWtour—is a locally owned togean islands tour operator based in Ampana, Central Sulawesi, the primary gateway to the breathtaking Togean Islands National Park.

For over a decade, our local guide togean has introduced global adventurers to one of Indonesia’s last truly untouched island destinations. What began as a deep passion for Sulawesi’s pristine marine life, coral reefs, and vibrant coastal cultures has grown into a leading local travel agency committed to responsible island tourism.

As an Ampana-based company, the Togean Islands are more than just a destination for us —they are our home. We know the secluded beaches that rarely appear on maps, the flourishing coral reefs beneath crystal-clear waters, the ancient maritime traditions of the Bajau sea nomads, and the volcanic landscapes of Una-Una Island. Every trip organized by WAYAWtour is carefully designed to connect travelers with extraordinary places, local culture, and unforgettable stories.

Navigating a remote archipelago requires local expertise, trusted relationships, and thoughtful planning. From seamless boat logistics and experienced local guides to handpicked island resorts, WAYAWtour as a togean travel agent arranges every detail so you can travel with complete peace of mind.

Whether you are seeking peaceful island escapes, world-class snorkeling, Una-Una volcano trekking, or authentic cultural encounters, WAYAWtour is here to help you experience the Togean Islands through local eyes

Carefully Crafted Experiences

Every itinerary is thoughtfully balanced between adventure, comfort, and authentic local encounters—whether you're swimming with stingless jellyfish, trekking active volcanoes, or watching the sunset from a secluded beach

Safe, Reliable & Responsible

Exploring remote islands requires reliable logistics and an experienced team. From arrival in Ampana until your departure, we works with trusted boat captains, licensed guides, and family-owned accommodations to ensure safety and comfort.

Supporting Local Communities

Tourism should benefit the local islanders. we works directly with local boat operators, family homestays, village guides, and island communities to ensure your trip contributes directly to the Togean island economy and marine conservation.

What We Believe

We believe that the most meaningful journeys are not measured by the number of places you visit, but by the connections you make, the stories you discover, and the memories you carry home.

The Togean Islands are more than a collection of beautiful beaches and coral reefs. They are living islands shaped by nature, culture, and generations of communities whose lives remain deeply connected to the sea. Our role is not simply to take you there, but to help you experience these islands with authenticity, respect, and curiosity.

Every itinerary we design reflects this philosophy—balancing exploration with relaxation, adventure with comfort, and unforgettable destinations with genuine local encounters.​
