Our son is keen on primates, so I chose this tour for him, to the orangutans. The tour is three days, two nights, living on a houseboat. We arrived at 7am, drove along a broken road for about 20 minutes, through a military unit, and felt a bit tense. We had sent copies of our passports and tickets for park passes in advance. Our boat arrived, we met our guide Rasmin and sailed along the bay, then up the river. It was not hot, we entered the river, it was beautiful, the birds were singing. We had a modest lunch of local cuisine. It started raining. We sailed to the first stop, and it was still raining (the guide suggested going in the rain, gave us umbrellas. We went along the path through the jungle. We heard a noise overhead, looked, and right above us on the treetops walked a female orangutan with a grown-up cub. Quiet delight! We walked, and they walked above us, to the feeding place. We arrived, the rain stopped, several young males, females and cubs were feeding. They were about 10 meters away. An alpha male came for a short time - they are called kings, young males quickly leave. One sits above us, expresses displeasure (loudly smacks his lips), breaks branches and throws them down on everyone watching, we all laugh quietly. An hour and a half of feeding and we go back. We rest on the boat, at 7 pm there is a night safari. The night one was not particularly impressive, we saw a tarantula, glowing mushrooms and Mushrooms smoking with spores. We sail on to the place of overnight stay. We sat on the bow of the boat, admired the night sky, the moon - romance. We slept on mats under a mosquito net tent, silence, only something crunching and chomping can be heard in the jungle. In the morning, with the first rays of the sun at half past five, the birds began to sing, cry out, we slept great. Then we had breakfast and went to the second feeding place. The weather is great, although it is the rainy season, but the sun is shining, only very humid. We are walking along the path, the Rasmin and son are in front, about 3 meters behind me and my husband ... King comes out onto the path in front of the son and the guide, grabs a tree with one hand, stops and looks at us, then starts walking forward, sweeping the path with his wool. He looks like Yeti, our emotions are indescribable! So we go on until he turns into the depths of the forest. We knew that we were going in the low season and the probability of seeing orangutans was lower, well, we hoped for at least one. We saw them all: kings, females with cubs of all ages, teenagers, young males! A female with a cub passed me literally 3-4 meters away. No words, photos or videos can convey the live emotions and what we saw with our eyes! Two hours flew by unnoticed, we returned to the boat, had lunch and sailed to the third stop. The higher we sailed along the river, the narrower the river became. The park workers do this work, clearing the river banks from thickets of plants. They cut down entire floating islands and send them floating downstream. But since they cut down very large islands, these islands can become compacted and block the river. The guide told us that if we could not get through, we would return to the second stop. But we were able to get through and went further up the river. We arrived at the third stop, a 20-minute walk along the path to the feeding site. There is a hotel at the third stop, also an orangutan study center, where volunteers also come. Unfortunately, the orangutans did not come to the feeding at the third stop. We sat for a long time, more than an hour, and suddenly a gibbon appeared, very timid, grabbed some fruit, climbed a tree, ate and left altogether. We sat for an hour and a half and went back. We sailed in the opposite direction, had to choose a place to spend the night. But because of these floating islands, we got stuck. Other boats arrived and tried to move these islands, and somehow they pulled us back. In the morning, we sailed to break through the islands. Before us, the park workers left to cut a channel. So we also had adventures. We broke through the islands and calmly went in the opposite direction, and returned to the port by 12 o'clock. Almost everywhere we sailed, there was no connection or internet, we had a very good rest both in mind and body. We said goodbye to the Rasmin and went to the airport. We had a wonderful experience and unforgettable impressions

Nature and wildlife was great. The Crew and the tourguide were amazing. It was good to do it off-season, because there were still a lot of boats

We loved the entire experience from traveling through and sleeping in the tranquility of the jungle on the charming houseboat, to the frequent encounters of Orang Utans, Macaques, Proboscious Monkeys and Gibbons in the wilderness, to the night trekking all acompanied by the super friendly tour guides and boat crew including the chef who spoiled us with the most delicious meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as snacks in between. We would do it again any day!
