The only shared 3D2N boat cruise in Tanjung Puting - made for solo travellers!
This is the only boat in Tanjung Puting that runs as a shared trip rather than a private charter - making it perfect for solo travelers or small groups! You get all the adventure without paying for an entire private boat.You’ll visit three iconic orangutan feeding stations - each with its own characters and stories. Your English-speaking local guide will point out the dominant male who’s ruled the platform for years, protective mothers, or the cheeky juvenile known for testing boundaries. It's like a watching a Nat Geo documentary - but in real life!Another highlight that sets this shared trip apart is the night trek - something that only private trips include. After sunset, go on guided jungle walks with your guide to spot nocturnal wildlife like vipers, tarantulas, glowing fungi, and other fascinating creatures rarely seen during the day.Onboard, the local chef serves up fresh, home-cooked Indonesian meals every day. It's simple, hearty, delicious - much loved by our guests.This shared trip is perfect for wildlife lovers and solo travellers who want to connect with other travellers from around the world - without the high cost of a private charter.What to ExpectVisit three orangutan feeding stations, including Tanjung Harapan, Pondok Tanggui, and Camp LeakeySlow river cruising through stunning rainforest scenery and blackwater creeksWildlife spotting – orangutans, proboscis monkeys, hornbills, and many moreRare night trek with a chance to see nocturnal creatures like vipers, tarantulas, glowing fungi, snakes, and even tarsius or leopardSunset cruise and enjoy a magical riverbank firefly display while weather permitDelicious meals onboard daily, including snacks and coffee & teaTraditional Dayak longhouse visit for a touch of local cultureSleep under the stars in a cosy traditional houseboatGood to KnowLittle to no phone signal during the trip - perfect for a digital detoxBring comfortable clothes suitable for jungle walks and outdoor adventures.The terrain at the feeding stations is beginner-friendly but can be muddy - bring good shoesBasic onboard facilities include a western toilet, shower, and mosquito nets – just like a simple but comfortable rainforest retreat.Amenities/facilitiesShared traditional Klotok boat with clean and well maintained bathroom (toilet & shower)One bathroom (toilet and shower) designated for guest and one for the crewWe provide mattresses, mosquito nets, and blankets for a comfortable night on the deckThe boat can accommodate a maximum of 8 people, will sleep on the open-air deck, a favourite for those who love falling asleep with natural breeze and listen to the sound of jungle.

Riyan Momod grew up in Pangkalan Bun, right on the edge of Borneo’s rainforest, and has spent over 30 years helping others experience its wonders. He doesn’t just guide — he invites people into his world, whether that’s spotting wild orangutans from a quiet klotok boat or sharing stories in a Dayak longhouse. Riyan knows the forest like home because it is, and he works closely with local communities to make sure every journey supports the people who live there. His tours feel more like being shown around by an old friend — someone who quietly takes care of every detail, respects the land deeply, and makes sure you’re not just passing through, but truly connecting.
