One of the best places in the world to see orangutans is in Tanjung Puting National Park. They are living around the camp and will come to greet you. The young orphans who cannot yet care for themselves have to be taught how to climb trees and eat leaves, before back into the wild.
During the river trip we use a private traditional wooden riverboat, about 12m by 2m with a roof which forms the upper deck where you can view the rain forest as it glides by. The guide’s team includes the boatman, a cook, and an expert guide. In the peaceful afternoon we will slowly explore the quite river by the boat while observe the monkeys along the riverside. The boat has a simple mattress, pillow, bottled “mineral” water, mosquito net, kitchen, and a simple toilet.
Note: For reservations in July & August every year, please contact us 6 months earlier to avoid any full booked.
