The trip was great, we spent 4d3n on the river and it was a wonderful adventure from beginning to end. The crew took care of us very well and our guide was fantastic telling us local stories and searching for wildlife as we went down the river. We saw so many wild animals, from wild orangutang and monkeys to kingfishers and hornbills; the landscape was so pristine. It felt like going back in time and discovering a untouched piece of the jungle as we slowly made our way up and down the river. We had the entire deck to ourselves to just lounge as the boat slowly chugged along.

We booked a 3 days 2 nights tour and it was great. Booking with Yommie was easy, and we got all that we were promised. We had a wooden boat, a captain, a cook and a guide. Everyone was very friendly, the food was truly delicious and waaaaay to much for us two girls :) the tour also included pick up from the airport. We departed on day one in the morning around 11 and visited the first feeding point the same day. It is quite an experience to see the Orangutans climbe their way through the forrest, really impressive! Later in the night we had a jungle night walk which was very interesting too! The guide spotted all kind of insects and even got a tarantula out of its nest (that was kind of crazy :D ). A mosquito net is included, just bring repellent for the day. The second day we visited two feeding points and were not disappointed since more Orangutans came around. In the evening we parked the boat near a sea of fireflies, nice to watch. The third day we got back in the morning and since our flight was in the afternoon, Yommie showed us around little bit. He introduced us to a friend and we accompanied him to nearby forrest fires since he took some pictures with a drone to estimate the damage done by the fires. It was all a very interesting experience especially with all the background information how the wildlife and especially the orangutans in Borneo are threatened by companies (palm trees,mining, etc). If you are in Indonesia and want to see Orangutans, this is money well spent!

We did the 3D/2N tour and we wish we could stay longer.
Yomie and the boat crew, the capitan, the cook and the guide, were amazing. Super friendly, funny and helpful all the time. They sure made this experience greater.
We visited three orangotango feeding camps, and we were really lucky to see a lot in all of them. We also saw different monkeys, birds and wild pigs.
The boat was incredible and we slept in the top open part of the boat with a mosquito nest.
They served a lot of tasteful indonesian food and some snacks between them. It's impossible to be hungry.
The experience of sleeping and living in the jungle is unique. The views are breathtaking and the peaceful of the jungle sounds is unforgettable.
We highly recommend this experience.
Thank you all so much.

The trip of a lifetime, seeing the primates up close amongst its natural habitat was an amazing experience. The local population is friendly and welcoming and the guides know what they are doing. If you want to experience a real live jungle escape then come on down

Boat was beautiful
- Loved the all wood exterior and interior and the all white wind/rain shields. It would be nicer if we could see the view in the front. Since it was raining a lot, the cover was almost always covered, and we couldnt see what was ahead.
- Nice sofa seating. Loved the new covers
- Bedding clean, it really felt like a good hotel quality in the way they properly set up each bed and mosquito net every nite and put everything away every morning.
- Nice flexible dining area. Loved that it can move around the klotok, inside or outdoor dining 😁
Service:
- dining: all the food, and snacks and juice, and morning tea was great. Even our picky eater daughter could eat most of the food served
- coffee, tea, and other drinks were also abundant. Kapten Rudy even served us coffee on the beach, and the front of the boat.
- We looooved the cold wet towel and cold fresh juice when we got back from excursions 👍👍
- Kapten Rudy would clean all our shoes after each excursion, and also make sure they were dry. I mean, this is above 5 star hotel service 👏👏
- Also loved the candlelit dinner. Too bad it was raining a lot.
Crew
- captain: great, we enjoyed the whole cruise, his “driving” was very safe, and he is such a nice guy
- Boatman: very diligent and helpful, didnt get a chance to interact much
- Guide: very informative, nice, and together with the captain made sure we come and went at all the right times. We literally escaped a big rain shower😁. And at Tanguy, nobody was allowed in due to VIP group. But our klotok was just accross the entrance and we climbed thru the VIP klotok to get 1st entry 😂
- Chef: great food, quiet lady 😊

We loved the entire experience from traveling through and sleeping in the tranquility of the jungle on the charming houseboat, to the frequent encounters of Orang Utans, Macaques, Proboscious Monkeys and Gibbons in the wilderness, to the night trekking all acompanied by the super friendly tour guides and boat crew including the chef who spoiled us with the most delicious meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as snacks in between. We would do it again any day!
