Reviews from travellers on this tour

Tom A

Amazing wildlife, fantastic knowledgeable guides, so friendly and great food!

02-Aug-2023

Myself and my father did the overnight jungle Orangutan trek. Amazing wildlife, lots of orangutans and other monkeys to see on the trek. Our guides Ibo and Inchan were so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the jungle and wildlife. They both spoke excellent English and were very kind and helpful on the trek. Prepared delicious food on the way and also took us away from the other tourists to experience some quiet parts of the jungle where we got to see some orangutans just by ourselves. They also were very attentive and were always happy to stop for a short rest and help us in the slightly steeper parts of the trek. The food at the camp was a delicious combination of many dishes, beautifully presented by the cook at camp, you will certainly not go hungry! The hut by the river we stayed in was basic but clean, they have mattresses and a small blanket provided, you may want to take an extra pillow. Lovely to swim in the river after a hot trek. Beautiful jungle walk and so much wildlife. The guides are very respectful of the animals and keep a good distance so as not to disturb them too much. Thank you Christine, Safrool, Ibo and Inchan, it was an amazing experience.

Thank you for this experience!

11-Jul-2023

We did a 3 day jungle trek in Bukit Lawang as a family of two adults, and 3 children (10, 8 and almost 4 years), including transport from/to Medan Airport. We loved the whole experience, Christine as a booking contact, Safrool as our local contact, Fabio as our guide, and Mawan and Iman. Our flight was delayed, but our pickup waited for us for a couple of hours and also arranged food for us on the way to Bukit Lawang. We saw many Orang Oetang, had support when the track was challenging, and always were treated with friendliness, understanding and fun. Our kids loved the trip, the fruits and the Orang Oetang. And by their words: would have liked a 35 day trip instead of a 3 day trip. FYI: Our kids know how to hike but and we brought a carrier backpack for our youngest. Carrying this backpack was shared between the adults.
