3 day Jungle trekking - We went on the jungle trekking with team Ian and it was the best experience! We saw Orang oetans and many other monkeys. The guides were so nice and funny, and we had our own cook. Everyday they prepared the best food on plates decorated with leaves and flowers. They made the experience ten times better and I would definitely recommend!

BEST TOURING COMPANY. You’ll love it ! - AMAZING. Do not hesitate ! It is the activity you want to do in Northern Sumatra. And this is the best touring company. As a solo traveler, Muslim and fasting during Ramadan I loved all 3 days. Geo who organises the tour and booking for you is the sweetest and always wants you to have the best experience and confort. I had the pleasure of having dinner with her and learn more about Indonesia and Bukit Luang. 🤍 Thank you again for all of your kindness ! I took the package deal of 3 days 2 nights in the jungle. Geo had a car with a driver ready to pick me up at airport to drive me to Bukit Luang (3h). You’ll spend one night in a nice hotel for 8€ then the next day you’ll be ready to start ! (They can keep your bigger luggage of course.) Full immersion in nature, pack the necessities and here we go for a 6-7 hours hike the first day. A lot of ups and downs but it is all worth it. You’ll get water and food breaks to meet other travelers but mainly to go at your own pace. You’ll have plants of time to observe the animals in their environment. They’ll watch you as much as you watch them ! All is included but it’s nice to bring water on the first day. Reminder : please be respectful of nature and keep your trash and don’t feed the animals. I was very happy to see no trash anywhere :) All the guides are great BUT the best guide is Nangnang (thank you again for everything!). Nangnang knows a lot about nature and the animals. He speaks English so you’ll have no problem communicating. I was very privileged to see 16 ourangutan in 3 days. Of course, some gibbons, macaques as well. I did see a turtle and 3 varans. So definitely more than expected. The macaques are more friendly than I thought. They would come very close to camp in the morning, being very interested in my camera. Also, the food was perfect ! Chicken, fish, potato cakes, rice, curry sauce you name it ! Putra is the best cook and he will make camp feel like home with Nangnang. Putra woke up at 4am to make me breakfast so I could continue to fast and have energy ! (Thank you again). You can see they are very good friends, so they make you feel comfortable and are very respected. We played games, had a fire every night, they even got my a bubble tea because I was fasting 🥹. All together this is the dream team. You’ll have all the confort you need in nature within reasons : bamboo tents, toilets (real one yes), river (for shower and swimming), waterfalls, matrice, mosquito net. All you need ! And they fight insects for you if you are scared like me haha ! Thank you again for the beautiful experience and for having me. Please book with them without hesitation, this is family friendly, female solo traveler friendly, really anybody friendly 👍🏽😊

Highly recommend family trip - It was a truely authentic experience in the jungles of Sumatra. Would highly recommend this trip to anyone. Out of all the tours and adventures I've experienced in south east Asia, this might be one of my favourites. Our tour guides were incredibly knowledgeable on plants, animals, and everything to do with the jungle. We mainly walked through relaxing jungle trails with some steeper hikes at times. These, while hot and challenging, were very rewarding with the chance to swim in the cool, clear rivers, and most importantly, being able to see orangutans!!! (Pretty close up and multiple times too) Not only this, we saw plenty of macaques, hornbills, Thomas monkeys, gibbons, peacocks, and many more.

2 days away from everything - What a wonderful 2-day ride we had passes through the jungle. Andy, our Guide was great, we had seen a lot of outang and the rainforest was beautiful. It is still quite sporty, but the lunch breaks were excellent and invigorating. The final rafting on the river. So I really recommend this tour and this agency.
