Borneo orangutan tour is one of our best-selling travel destinations, and for good reason. Embark on this 3-day magical rainforest adventure to get up close to orangutans and experience the rainforest from a local houseboat! Visit any time of the year, dry or wet season. You will find different natural beauty in all seasons.
Spend 2 nights on board a local houseboat, a traditional wood klotok, which will be the main form of transportation. From the upper deck, you can view the rainforest as it glides by, and perhaps birds, proboscis monkeys, and crocodiles at the riverside. Wake up at dawn to the “morning concert ” of tropical rainforest creatures!
In Tanjung Puting National Park, we’ll visit rehabilitated and rescued orangutans, and explore the diversity of flora and fauna in the rainforest. Look for pheasants, snakes (including the three species of flying snakes), sun bears, and more than 600 species of birds including the magnificent hornbill. Borneo also has lots of exclusive plants that you can not find anywhere else, such as black orchids, carnivorous pitcher plants, 70-meter trees that are known as the hardest wood in the rainforest, and many more.
This tour is more than simply bringing visitors to see orangutans. In addition to experiencing the lush rainforest of central Kalimantan, visitors can also take part in keeping the home of orangutans safe. Orangutans are endangered species, with declining populations due to loss of habitat. Your adventure in Tanjung Puting, safely, helps to raise awareness about the threats these magnificent creatures are facing.
