Step into the heart of Flores and witness one of the most striking cultural performances in Southeast Asia, the Caci Dance. Often mistaken for a war dance, Caci is a traditional martial art performance that symbolizes masculinity, leadership, and emotional discipline. The word “Caci” comes from the Manggarai language: “Ca” = one “Ci” = test Together, it means “a one-on-one test”, a ritual duel meant to test a man’s agility and self-control, not to harm. Each dancer wears a belt of bells, known as giring-giring, that ring with every movement, echoing rhythm, grace, and power through the arena. Once a coming-of-age tradition, Caci is now performed as a cultural showcase, inviting travelers from around the world to connect with the deeper stories of Flores. If you’re looking for more than just a vacation, if you’re looking for meaning, culture, and unforgettable moments, join us as we sail to the places where stories come alive. 🌏✨ Culture. Exploration.
