Day 1: Arrival & River Cruise – Tanjung Harapan Camp

Arrive at Pangkalan Bun (PKN) Airport where your local guide will greet you.
Transfer to Kumai Harbor and board your traditional wooden houseboat (klotok).
Begin your cruise upriver along the Sekonyer River, surrounded by mangroves and dense rainforest. Keep your eyes open for proboscis monkeys, long-tailed macaques, and tropical birds such as hornbills.
Afternoon visit to Tanjung Harapan Camp, where you will witness your first orangutan feeding session. Learn about the camp’s rehabilitation program and observe orangutans as they descend from the trees for their meal.
Return to your klotok, enjoy dinner prepared by the crew, and spend the night on board. Sleeping arrangements include mattresses, mosquito nets, and a canopy of jungle sounds.

Day 2: Camp Leakey – Pondok Ambung Night Trekking

After breakfast, continue the river journey deeper into the national park.
Arrive at the world-famous Camp Leakey, the orangutan research and rehabilitation center founded by Dr. Biruté Galdikas.
Visit the small research center and museum before trekking with your guide through the rainforest trails. Watch for wild orangutans, gibbons, and exotic birds.
Join the afternoon feeding session, where dominant male orangutans often appear alongside mothers with babies.
Return to your boat for dinner, then prepare for an exciting night trekking adventure at Pondok Ambung, a research station focusing on nocturnal wildlife. With flashlights, look for tarsiers, owls, civets, and glowing fungi.
