Experience the extraordinary biodiversity of Borneo on a private river expedition through Tanjung Puting National Park, one of the most important orangutan conservation areas in the world. Depart from Pangkalan Bun and head deep into the rainforest aboard a traditional wooden klotok boat.

As you cruise along the calm Sekonyer River, visit several orangutan feeding stations and rehabilitation zones, including the renowned Camp Leakey, where you can observe orangutans in a semi-wild environment. Each stop offers a unique perspective on conservation efforts while allowing you to witness these incredible primates up close in their natural habitat.

Between excursions, relax on deck and watch the rainforest scenery drift by. Wildlife sightings may include proboscis monkeys, macaques, hornbills, and a wide variety of tropical bird species. Your onboard crew prepares fresh meals daily, and evenings are spent surrounded by the sounds of the jungle, creating a peaceful and immersive atmosphere far from the crowds.

Choose the 2-day option for a concise wildlife experience with an overnight stay on the river, or the 3-day option for a more comprehensive journey visiting the park’s main feeding sites with additional opportunities for jungle walks and wildlife observation.

With private guiding, flexible scheduling, and comfortable onboard facilities, this experience is designed for travelers who want an authentic connection with nature while exploring one of Southeast Asia’s most unique ecosystems.
