After lunch we depart by ferry back to Perapat and continue by car to Medan. We check-in at the Medan airport hotel and say goodbye to our driver.
Note: Visitors usually consider Medan a crowded city that has little to offer, and therefore choosing to rest at the airport hotel outside of the city is recommended in our view. This also allows you to catch a morning flight to your next destination. However, if you wish to spend this night in Medan city, we happily accommodate it.
Day6
Medan airport

After breakfast we walk into our terminal to catch a morning flight without rush.
Note: In case you spent the previous night in Medan city, we would provide a transfer from your hotel to Medan Airport.
