The Subdistrict town of Sonder in Minahasa highland of Indonesia is a beautiful destination for farmland tours. Visitors who travel to this small town could enjoy walking tours to explore its villages, forest, agricultural lands, and paddy fields.
The walking tours in these areas allows visitors to see various kinds of agricultural crops that are grown by local farmers and at the same time watch birds and butterflies. The hills that surround subdistrict town of Sonder are planted with various kinds of fruit trees such as duku, durian, rambutan, papaya, banana, mango, and coconut. Villagers grow other agricultural commodities such as nutmeg, clove and vanilla.
