Discover the wildest side of Indonesia with this private cruise of 3 days around Borneo, in which you will meet and play with orangutans in their natural habitat.
We will meet up at Iskandar airport in the morning, and from there we will head to the area of Kumai. Once there, we will set off on our klotok, a traditional wooden Indonesian boat that will act as our floating house during the 3-day cruise through Borneo.
We drift down the Sekonyer river until reaching the Tanjung Harapan rehabilitation center for Orangutans. Our journey there will take us through the wildest side of Borneo, where you will see animals such as the proboscis monkey, Macaques, and exotic birds.
At the Tanjung Harapan reserve, you will see the orangutans in the middle of the jungle wilderness. Respecting their space, you'll see just how loving and affectionate they really are.
After, we will return to the Klotok to enjoy the sunset over the river Sekonyer. Finally, we will end our intense day with a delicious candlelight meal as we are gently pulled along by the currents of the river while hearing the sounds of the jungle wildlife that surrounds us.
After waking to the crack of dawn and the first sounds of the stirring jungle animals, we will have a filling breakfast before we head to the camp at Pondok Tanggui. There you will have a fun time watching the affectionate orangutans of all ages and sizes.
Later, we will climb back aboard our klotok and head to the Leakey camp. During the two-hour journey, you will have time to relax, admire the surrounding nature and enjoy a delicious meal on board.
When you arrive at Camp Leakey, you can choose between enjoying a hiking route through the Indonesian jungle or visiting the information center. Later, we will head to the Nipa Palm area, also known as the house of Fireflies. In this enclosure, we will admire these incredible insects that endow the area with a magical and spectacular aura.
Please note that we cannot guarantee the sighting of fireflies during our trip because they are wild animals, whose behavior is unpredictable. Their sighting depends on several factors, such as the day's season or the light.
Before the end of the day, we'll go on a fun night trek to look for orangutans—the moonlit experience is unparalleled!
Finally, we'll have dinner on board our floating house and then have a good night’s rest following an intense day.
We'll have breakfast on board the boat and then we will travel along the river to Kumai. Here, we'll climb onto an air-conditioned vehicle that will take us to the airport of Pangkalan Ban for about 9:30 am, when we'll say goodbye following three magnificent days of the cruise.
The accommodation on the tour through Borneo will be a traditional klotok. This boat, some 50 feet in length, is equipped with mattresses, cushions, a mosquito net, a kitchen and a bathroom.
During the tour, you will be attended by a professional crew, composed of a captain, a chef, and an English-speaking guide.
The only thing you need to do this circuit is a round-trip flight to Pangkalan Bun Iskandar Airport, arriving the day you have booked your tour for before 12 midday, and returning three days later. That is, if you arrive on a Monday, you will have to take the plane on Wednesday. Your return flight must depart before 11 am.
Due to the high demand for this tour during the months of July, August and September, we recommend that you contact us beforehand to guarantee availability.
