プライベート1日ブキッ・ラワントレッキングツアー（メダン発）

Started the day early with a safe and speedy transfer from Medan to the Bukit Lawang area. Had a quick morning tea and off we went to the jungle! Our guides, Rafli and Haikal, were just two chill guys full of jokes who kept the whole trip super fun! The hike was tough at parts with tall stone steps but the guides were always around to lend a helping hand. And it was all worth it when we managed to see the three orangutans in the treetops, among a whole bunch of other animals! (but my newfound favourite monkey is definitely the Thomas Leaf Monkey :) Lunch and a giant fruit platter were served in the jungle by our trusty guides. Then we ended the trek with the best part - the river tube ride! The water was cooling and so welcoming after the sweat of the hike. It was a safer version of white water rafting, but just as fun and exciting, expertly driven by our tube master Anton. Then we ended the day with a nice tall glass of coffee at Salju Coffee before heading back to Medan :)) overall a great experience, and a must-do for anyone visiting Medan!

If you just want to see orangutans, this is a great tour, seemingly pretty family friendly as well. We were able to get heart poundingly close to a male orangutan on ours. Our guides were both nice and helped us get good angles of wildlife, as well as going out of their way to make sure we saw a certain monkey that we were excited for. I can’t in good conscience however give this more than a 1 star. Our first orangutan encounter was before we even stepped into the park, the guides pointed them out and a big crowd of people gathered to take pictures. At this point all of the “professional guides” took out their cigarettes and began smoking right underneath the same tree the animals were on. Most of these guides also seem to be just young locals and not professionals compared to literally all the other guides we’ve had on our Indonesia trip. This smoking continued throughout our entire experience. All throughout the park. Seeing the animals get secondhand smoke from the very people that should be the ones to care for them and see them every day was honestly disgusting. This seems to be normal in this park unfortunately. We saw orangutans in Borneo on this Indonesia trip and it was a night and day difference between the level of professionalism and care those rangers have for the wildlife over there compared to here. I would not support any Orangutan tours in Bukit Lewang.

Scam trip/vexing money. Waste of your time

Pickup from the hotel in quality car spot on time. My guide was Kian Lesmana, very knowledgeable and very good English to be your perfect guide for this private tour where we saw a lot of wild life . During the tour I got amazing fresh fruit and afterwards lunch. Highly recommendable and I’m very pleased this is a local business. Good job for this awesome day! Keep going!

Sorry for the late reaction: we already had this tour in January 2025. We remember this day as a very successful tour with two young friendly guides who led us safely through the jungle. And we've been able to see the orangutans up close. As a keepsake, one of the guides also gave us a self-carved face of an orangutan. Also the lunch in the jungle was very well catered for. The last part of the tour was a fun route over the fast flowing river. Before we went up the river there was a rest moment with lots of tasty fruit.

It's a great experience , get to see the orangutans, I was very lucky. Rifan our guide was amazing , he explains a lot about the area and the orangutans, they provide a nice lunch and the best fruit table, thanks

A beautiful walk and discovery in the jungle. We had 2 guides with us: Aldi and Randy Randy spoke very good English and Aldi was very caring. He walked behind us to keep an eye on us and he also looked after the bags when we went deeper into the jungle with Randy. We saw all the attacks in the jungle and also saw 2 toucans flying. We swam in the river next to the jungle and rafting was also very nice What an adventure!

It was good trip to trek to Bukit Lawang national park. Luckily, I could meet 10 orangutans during trekking. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and I enjoyed the trekking until the very end. Sorry I forgot the guide's name, but he was a very good guide.

No show. No one picked us up. No response from the operator, we tried calling, texting, WhatsApp, our JW Marriott manager attempted to help...nothing. I guess paying in advance & getting a confirmation means nothing to this tour operator. It really sucks to wake up early & prepare yourself for a 12 hour tour and they simply don't show up.

It was a top experience. Our guides were experts and none skipped a plant or animal. At everything a fantastic explanation of smell taste experience. The lunch was also super prepared and certainly made with a lot of love. In short, do it! And by the way, we saw the primal primaries and that was our goal. Really wow!
