2 Days 1 Night Ethical Jungle Trekking

Great local operator, professional and with a chill vibe

Trip was super well arranged, we saw orangutans and all sorts of other wildlife. They really know how to make you comfortable: fruits stops, great lunch, dinner by the hut besides the river.. it's a great mix of pain (the long tough hike) and pleasure. Recommended. We did it with our kids and they loved it.

Amazing

Very responsive. Efficient response, quality answers, the tour was fenomenal, and we saw 5 orangutans, including 3 baby orangutans. We saw the hornbill, pig tailed macaque, and Thomas monkey. The tour was amazing, and me and my family enjoyed it very much. It was definitely worth the price as well. The fruits were very fresh, and the food we ate was delicious. Very good. The tour guide, Erwin and Abel was guiding us through the whole thing, explaining to us the different plants, trees and making jokes along the way, truly wonderful. We are definitely coming back.

Definetely would recommend!

Had a 2D1N trek with Erwin and Agus as our guides. During the trek they serve you really well with fruit food tea and coffee. They explain about the animals and helped us spot orangutans and many more. Before the trek we stayed 2 nights in the hotel. The reception, communication, food and drinks were all really good! Definetely would recommend!

A Life Changing Experience

If anyone is trying to decide which tour operator to go with… there is no better choice than to go with Sumatra Orangutan Treks. Before we even booked, Dedycool helped us so much with any questions we had and explained how everything works. From the moment we arrived at our villa, we were given the biggest welcome and everyone was so friendly. The villa and grounds are so beautiful and peaceful we didn’t ever want to leave! Not to mention the food at their restaurant was some of the tastiest Indonesian food we had honestly ever tried. The jungle trek - we decided to do 2 days 1 night and we absolutely loved every minute. Our guides Erwin and Janet were brilliant, making sure everyone was okay and safe, preparing us more than enough delicious food in the jungle, explaining the wildlife to us, navigating us through difficult jungle routes - we couldn’t ask for better tour guides. Thank you Erwin and Janet! We initially decided to go with Sumatra Orangutan treks because of their ethical and eco friendly tours, and it was a perfect experience from start to finish. Of course you are seeing the beautiful wildlife in their natural habitat so you can’t guarantee what you see during your trek, but we got so lucky and saw 8 orangutans and loads of monkeys without disturbing their natural habitat … it’s a life changing experience. This is the company to go with, thank you everyone for making this such an amazing experience we will remember this forever ❤️ Ash & Libby x

Our goal is always to give guests an ethical, eco-friendly, and unforgettable experience while respecting the wildlife and the jungle. We are so happy 😊 you could see orangutans and other animals in their natural habitat and create memories that will stay with you forever 🦧🌿 Thank you 🙏😊 again for trusting us with your adventure and for taking the time to write such an amazing review. We hope 🙏😊 one day to welcome you back again to Sumatra! Big hugs from all the team in Bukit Lawang ❤️ Warm jungle regards 🌿 The sumatra orangutan treks team 🦧

What a wonderful experience!

I did the 2D1N trek with them and had an absolute blast. I really loved that the groups were small instead of huge crowds — we were just 2 girls — which made the whole experience feel much more personal and peaceful, and allowed us to truly enjoy the jungle. They organize everything for you, and I also appreciated how eco-friendly and respectful they are toward nature. Our guides, Yoga and Bambang, were definitely the highlight of the trip — super friendly, fun, knowledgeable, and at the same time very professional. They spoke great English, which made the whole experience even easier and more enjoyable. The food was also AMAZING. They kept feeding us throughout the entire trip, and there was always so much delicious food — I think we came back from the trek gaining weight! I also think it’s really important to support local people in Bukit Lawang, so I loved that this is a locally owned company run by local people from the area. Supporting local businesses and communities here truly makes a difference. This was honestly one of the best activities I’ve joined in a long time. We saw so many orangutans, including a rare male orangutan, plus many other monkeys and wildlife throughout the trek. I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Bukit Lawang!

Response from the operator: Dear Mrs Yonca 😊 Thank you so much for your beautiful review and kind words 😊 We are very happy 😊 to hear that you had such a wonderful experience with us during your 2D1N jungle trek. It means a lot to know that you enjoyed the small group atmosphere, the jungle experience, and our eco-friendly approach to nature 🌿 Yoga and Bambang will be so happy 😊 to read your lovely comments. We are proud to have guides who are passionate, knowledgeable, and always trying to make every guest feel comfortable and connected to the jungle. And yes… the jungle food portions are always a little dangerous 😂 We’re glad you enjoyed all the meals during the trek! Thank you 🙏😊 also for supporting local people and local businesses in Bukit Lawang. Your support truly helps our community and motivates us to continue protecting the jungle and wildlife for future generations. We’re especially happy 😊 that you were able to see so much wildlife, including the rare male orangutan — such a special moment! 🦧 Thank you 🙏😊 again for recommending us, and we hope to welcome you back to Bukit Lawang one day for another adventure 😊🌿 Warm jungle regards 🌿 The sumatra orangutan treks team 🦧
