We did 4D3N trip, guided by Jefry and the whole boat crews - who are all super friendly and accommodating. The knowledge they have is exceptional, especially in spotting the wild animals (feels like they have an eagle eye or an automatic scanner of animals!). The food provided by Bu Acil was also extraordinarily delicious, adjusting to our Indonesian tastebud. We were lucky to see 5 of the 9 primates existing in the National Park, alongside with many birds, crocodiles, small reptiles, and various interesting plants - all with the complete stories. Overall, the trip was superb!

We made a tour of one day with Arif and was an incredible day! Very helpful, very honest, he help us with everything, explained all the story and was very kind with my children and my. The food of the boat was very very tasty! Positive point for the cooker!! If I have to come back to Tanjung Putting I want to meet with Arif again. Congratulations for the effort and keep being the best guide!!

It has been one of the most wonderful experiency. This trip with Orangutan Applause is highly recommended. The crew and the guide were VERY kind. We saw orangutans at feeding stations but also wild ones. The food was very tasty based on traditional cuisine but not so much spicy. Do not hesitate to try long walks 😉

We have just finished a 4d3n river boat tour with Orangutan Applause, which was incredible. We are a family of 4, 2 children aged 11 & 13, and were slightly worried how they would cope saying goodbye to creature comforts, but the boat was brand new, the food was excellent, and the crew did a fantastic job of making it as pleasant as possible! Our guide Guh was very impressive, with a high standard of English, his knowledge of the Orangutans was excellent, being able to identify all of them individually, but he also knew so much about the rainforest in general. Doing the 3 night tour meant we were able to take the trip at a relaxed pace, taking time to spot wildlife as we cruised up the river to the national park feeding stations, which felt like a real advantage. The night walk through the rainforest and canoeing down one of the tributaries were real highlights. The trip was very well organised, with the company being really helpful over some last-minute changes to our travel plans due to illness. I have only got good things to say about this trip, if you’re thinking of booking it, do it!

This was an amazing and rewarding adventure that I thoroughly enjoyed. We were incredibly lucky with wildlife sightings — over 40 orangutans, including massive alpha males! Honestly felt like we were on a live David Attenborough episode. Big shoutout to our Seek Sophie guide, Guh, and the boat crew. They were such a huge part of what made the experience special. Super passionate, knowledgeable, and always went the extra mile. The food on the boat was another unexpected win — tasty and varied, especially considering it was all cooked on a tiny houseboat kitchen. And while the setup is definitely basic, sleeping on the boat was surprisingly comfy. Mosquitoes and flies were manageable (though there were quite a few flies during dinner at night which can't be avoided because you're in the wild) Canoeing into the quieter parts of the river was a peaceful highlight, and I’m so glad we ventured deeper into the national park — it felt like we were truly off the beaten path. My personal tip for photographers/videographers: charging ports are limited on the boat, so pack extra battery packs

This was a trip of a lifetime, never thought it could be possible to see the sights that I saw all condensed into this trip. I was constantly learning something new! Our guide was amazing, and getting to see wildlife up close, just doing their thing in the wild, was such a highlight. One thing that pleasantly surprised me: we actually managed to avoid the crowds most of the time. We did a 4-day Seek Sophie cruise instead of the usual 3-day one, which gave us the flexibility to start each day 30 minutes to an hour earlier — and that made a huge difference. Everything felt more peaceful and unhurried.
