Pongtiku Airport (TTR) → Vivi's B&B, Rantepao
💡 Buy a fixed-price coupon at the counter inside the tiny terminal. Don't haggle with drivers outside — they'll quote double.
Vivi's B&B (anywhere in Toraja) → Day trips: Lemo, Londa, Kete Kesu
💡 Ask Vivi's owner — they have a preferred driver who speaks English. Negotiate a full-day rate (8 hours) and include fuel. Cheaper than hiring from a Makale agent.
Rantepao Terminal (Pasar Bolu) → City centre / near Vivi's B&B
💡 Petepetes run fixed routes but stop anywhere if you flag them. From Vivi's, walk 5 mins to Jl. Andi Mappanyukki to catch one. No route numbers — just tell the driver your destination.
