Spend 4 days exploring Borneo’s Tanjung Puting National Park, whilst staying in the beauty of the Rimba Orangutan Eco-Lodge in Central Kalimantan. This location is one of the few remaining places where Orangutans can be seen in the wild. Rimba can only be reached by boat from the port of Kumai and arriving at the Lodge jetty in the middle of the forest is an experience you won’t forget.

Once you arrive at Rimba Lodge, you’ll visit the Tanjung Harapan orangutan feeding station in the afternoon of Day 1. The next day you’ll be up early to explore the rainforest around Rimba Lodge and climb up to the lookout and watch the sunrise over the canopy. Then it’s onto a riverboat, travelling the Sekonyer River to Camp Leakey.

Camp Leakey is a landmark research and rehabilitation centre, where you’ll be able to observe orangutans in the wild, and learn all about the history of this project.

Day 3 will see you exploring the feeding station of Tanggui, arriving at this station by boat, and with the possibility of seeing a large Alpha orangutan male! Lunch is on the boat, and then a visit to Harapan Village followed by a night cruise to see the fireflies in action. Day 4 you’ll enjoy a breakfast on the river boat as you return to Kumai Port.
