Gibbon Tanjung Puting Trip Klotoks Orangutan

Orangutan Borneo Tour, Jungle Walk and Camping

22nd 26th of March 2011 Orangutan Tours

From the moment we stepped off the plane, we first fell in love with Eddy, his scene of humor, positive out look on life etc. We had 5 wonderful days, first in the Rimba lodge, then on the Klotoks Mamma 1 with a fantastic cook Masrun. The always very sweet and responsible captain Udji and his even younger brother assistant Ian.

We enjoyed every minute, saw lots of Orang Oetans and proboscis monkeys. Learned about culture and environment.

Our bed were made, mosquito net and autan repellent was provided.

We had an experience of a lifetime and we will sure be back in a couple of years.

We were collected at Kumai harbor by Danny and Eddy joined us on the long but interesting trip to Palangkaraya. Now we are sitting at the Rungan sari resort and will continue on the Rahai'i Pangun boat cabin trip from the Palangkaraya harbor.

I forgot to tell that the last night on the boat one crew went out of their way to find a clean side river for us to take a shower in clean water. We just love them all and wish them all the best in the future - with all their dreams in his quite difficult part of the world to provide for a family and have a pleasant livings.

Inge and Kent Ringborn, Portugal.

This has been a very special a memorable trip. We have really enjoyed the trip and we appreciate everything that you have done. On the boat we were looked after so well by everyone - there was plenty of time to relax and enjoy being on the river with the sights and sounds of wildlife. The food was always plentiful and delicious (especially makan malam/ in the jungle camp!).

We enjoyed all the trips - going to see orang utans, jungle walk and camping. You went to extreme efforts to accommodate all our requests and made things happen for us.

Thank you in particular for being such a good guide and host - you gave us informations, gentle, useful advice and helpful suggestions. You were a very friendly companion to our daughter who really enjoyed your company and says Thank you for being cheerful!.

We feel lucky to have been guided and looked after by such a great team. Also Thank you for climbing the tower to get signal in the rain!

As always, Jon, Ruth and Nei
