First of all: The only reason I didn’t award 5 stars is because I and unfortunately my whole group got food poisoning on the last night of the trek and I was so bad that I’m really happy to have come back safe. Something was probably wrong with the dinner last night, a pity... But apart from that, the tour was amazing! We saw so many orangutans and the jungle experience was so intense and beautiful. On the first two days we trekked through the jungle for about 6-7 hours each, which was really exhausting because you had to climb real hard. But it was worth it because it was unforgettable and the monkey encounters were unique! Plus our great guides! A huge compliment at this point also to Andy, who didn't leave my side on the jungle hikes, but the whole team was incredibly great! Many thanks also to Dieki, who enabled me to easily postpone my tour one day behind, because I arrived in Sumatra one day later due to flight cancellations and would otherwise have missed the whole tour. I was incredibly grateful about that and this is not to be beaten at "Service".:) I can only recommend the tour to anyone and despite the unpleasant ending (again here the whole team helped me to get back to civilization in my state) I am glad to have made it. The animal encounters, the jungle, the team - everything has made the memory unforgettable. Thank you!!

The jungle trekking itself was amazing, although much more physically demanding than anyone in my group expected. I was somewhat disappointed that the third day had no trekking though, just hanging out at a big camp next to a river until the rafting - for three days of trekking you need to book the 4 day package. However, I booked through this company on Viator and they put me on a different company's tour. The other company was fantastic, but with my company it felt incredibly disorganized before I left. I asked multiple times for details on what to pack and where to meet, and was blown off twice after they had scheduled in-person meetings to discuss the trekking beforehand. To their credit, I booked transport back to Medan through them after the trekking and that was fast, efficient, and hassle-free. Also heads up for other solo travellers, it's two people to a bug net at night so be prepared to sleep next to a stranger.

This was a truly fantastic trek. We got really lucky and saw a lot of Orang-utans, some black gibbons and more monkeys than I can remember. The accomodation was basic but in keeping with what I would expect for a jungle trek. The food was outstanding throughout and more of it than we could eat. The guides Ian and Deddy kept us safe throughout, were great for spotting wildlife that we would otherwise have missed... and kept us entertained in the evening with magic tricks. It was all capped off with with an exciting raft ride back to Bukit Lawang. Would reccomend to anyone planning to visit Indonesia.
