Fantastic Service

We booked directly with the company via Whatsapp, the owner was particularly responsive and helped us organise the right tour for my partner and me. They arranged our transfer from Medan Airport and our accommodation at the tour centre. The staff provided excellent service throughout the whole experience. We were guided by Tamborin and Bambang who were very friendly, spoke great English and highly knowledgeable about the wildlife. They served us plenty of food, water, tea & coffee and tropical fruit throughout the whole tour. Bukit Lawang itself is beautiful. The track was fairly challenging, but we went at a very gentle pace. The focus was to see wildlife, rather than travel to our next camp as quickly as possible. We saw orangutans, gibbons, hornbills, snakes and monitor lizzards. I can't fault the service provided by the team at Sumatra Orangutan Treks. Would highly recommend.

Hati hati at Bukit Lawang Jungle Trek !

Amazing experience at the Bukit Lawang jungle trek alongside our wonderful guides Tesen and Fabian. The whole stay, from hiking in the tropical jungle, observing wild animals, eating the flavourful traditional food, and so on…, everything was perfect. We were literally immersed in the world of the jungle and this experience was heightened thanks to the guides. Not only they helped us navigating through the mazes of the jungle, but they also shared us their valuable and rich knowledge about the unique Bukit Lawang ecosystem, emphasising the need to be respectful towards Mother Nature. Overall, I completely recommend people to live this experience, this was a delight !
