Recommended experience - An amazing and very well organized experience, I took this Tour thanks to TripAdvisor reviews and it really does not disappoint, we have been very well cared for and accompanied all the time, the food, amazing and quite comfortable to be sleeping in the jungle, of course people who are not used to life in those conditions, could opt for the option of a night, but they could miss seeing more animals, I have to mention our guide Nanang, who takes care of us very well and who was also very fun, also thanks to the bang bang cook, prepared dishes and very varied. In general, I highly recommend the excursion and especially do it with this Enterprise.

Pinch me! This was the most amazing trip ever - This was the most amazing once in a lifetime experience! We saw SO much on this trip, it far exceeded our expectations we saw orangutans within 20 minutes of the first day! There weren’t many groups out and sometimes we even saw the orangutans alone with no other groups. As a group of vegetarians we were worried about the food but we got a huge variety of meals, including tofu, tempeh, curry, fruit and sweet treats. The guides were helpful, followed our pace and cared for us, going above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. They were very positive and had great jokes and tricks. Nang Nang, eka, Darhma and Bang bang were a dream team! The organiser geo was also fantastic and made sure we knew all we needed about our trip assuring us of all details.

3 Amazing days in the jungle! - All together it waa an amazing experience hosted by a great team. We saw alot of animals and had great hiking routes in the jungle. We went for the oerang utangs and we saw alot of them, big, small or even the little ones! The nights at the camps were also very nice, played games with the guides and also got to know them. Our experience was partly so great due to the amazing effort of Marwan, Kamal, Dedi!

Really authenticate - Really authentic experience. These are routes along complicated roads, in the middle of the jungle, always with a guide, who brings the food with him. In our three days we got to see 11 orangutans, some really close (within reach). Home-cooked food. Sleeping places aren’t the most comfortable if you’re light sleepy, but I don’t see how it can be otherwise living the same experience in the middle of the jungle. Combine walking along the river and back on floats along the river.

Exploring the jungle! And the orangutans! - An amazing experience, which allows you to explore the jungle and get up close and personal with orangutans and wildlife. Very good food and equipment in general and our guide very nice. I would repeat it without hesitation!

Orangutans in Sumatra - I throughly enjoyed my trekk with Monkey Business in Bukit Lawang. They were very easy to deal with, while arranging things from home, and when arriving in the village. They did everything they could to make the experience once smooth and once in a life time. Our Guides Freddy, and Baik were very funny and went at a pace that suited me, never pushing, always making sure that you took breaks. We seen several Orangutans, babies, males, females and juveniles. Camp supper and food along the way was delicious, and the rafting at the end was great. I definitely recommend this company for your Orangutan trekking needs!

Jungle trek in Bukit lawang - We had an amazing experiencie in the jungle, thanks to our guide Nanang. He could help us spotting a lot of animals: orangutans, monkeys, hornbill, Even gibons and the alpha male orangutan!! They prepared everything for us during day and night, really good meals. Thanks also to Deddy, the assistant guide who helped with everything and gave us a spécial orangutan handmade Gift! Totally recommended 🙌🏽

Even better than we expected - We had an amazing experience on this trip! We saw Orangutans (males, females, and babies), various monkeys, gibbons, hornbills, a water monitor, and more. The food was exceptional (shout out to Bang Bang!). Our guides NangNang and Dedi were fabulous and so accommodating. NangNang kept us laughing all day and night and taught us many games and tricks in addition to showing us the jungle and animals. Desi’s skills at spotting animals were unmatched, and he hand carved orangutans into rock necklaces for us. Overall, it was everything we hoped for and more. We were very lucky to have a great group and incredible guides! Beware, you will have the jungle trek song stuck in your head once you leave 😊
