1.00We booked the trip one day in advance and received our tickets. The next day, the driver did not show up, the phone number for the provider was switched off, we contacted Viator, who tried to help but also said they could not contact them as the office would be closed for another hour. We waited until the opening time, but nothing changed, the number was still switched off, no replies vie Whatsapp, no replies via Viator chat.
Great family fun

5.00My wife, our 8 year old son and I had an amazing day at Bukit Lawang. The tour was beyond our expectations: jungle trekking, rafting, local food and, of course, orangutans (lots of them). Guides Ucok and Toni were kind, knowledgeable and caring towards our son. We learned a lot and can only recommend.

5.00We had an amazing day on this jungle trek. Our guides Tondi and Karan were polite, professional, knowledgeable and kind. They gave us lots of interesting information about the rainforest and were very understanding of our need to rest. It is obvious that they are part of a community that really cares for and revolves around the rainforest. They are passionate about showing guests the wonders of the rainforest and of course the Orangutans. The guides all work together to pass on information about where Orangutans are and we saw four separate groups and had plenty of opportunity to take pictures. The apes are not at all bothered by the people and they continue going about their business in the trees above. Things you might want to know: 1) the drive from Medan is pretty awful for the most part so prepare yourself for that. For us it thankfully only took two and a half hours each way but I am told it can take up to four. 2) You will get very wet even if you don’t chose the rafting option (which was brilliant) and will have the opportunity to swim in the river. 3) Lunch was really good and there was absolutely loads of fresh fruit. So no need to take extra. 4) the trip starts and ends in the eco-village where there are bars and restaurants, we really enjoyed a cold beer before setting off on our journey back to Medan. 5) the trekking is hot and in some places steep (both up and down). My 9 year old daughter coped with it but was wiped out by the end of the day. I would say that you do need to be in OK shape to enjoy it. 6) tips are gratefully received and I did not see an ATM. Overall I cannot recommend this trip highly enough. It was superb.
Amazing!
