Enjoy the wildlife and the jungle in the comfort of an AC cabin
This 3-day orangutan deluxe adventure is the most comfortable way to explore Borneo’s Tanjung Puting National Park. Unlike most traditional klotok boats where you sleep on a mattress out in the open, this one comes with your own private, air-conditioned cabin for up to 4 guests— a game changer in the humid rainforest. You’ll have proper beds, a private space to unwind, and you won’t be swatting mosquitoes all night. Plus, it’s one of the very few boats in the park that uses fresh water for the shower and toilet — no murky river water here!It's perfect if you want the full rainforest experience without giving up your creature comforts. Not only will you cruise through the jungle in a comfy floating home, but you’ll also be guided by a true local expert with over 30 years of experience. You’re not just seeing orangutans — you’re understanding their story, their habitat, and the challenges they face, all while tucked away in one of Borneo’s most peaceful settings.This is a great choice for families, couples, first-time jungle explorers, and anyone who wants to connect with nature without roughing it. You’ll still do all the wild stuff — trekking through the forest, spotting wildlife, cruising blackwater rivers — just with a soft bed and fresh shower waiting for you after.What to ExpectThe most comfortable klotok in the area — air-con cabins and fresh water showersVisit all 3 orangutan feeding stations: Tanjung Harapan, Pondok Tanggui & Camp LeakeySlow river cruising through stunning rainforest scenery and blackwater creeksDay and night jungle walks to spot playful primates, glowing fungi, tarantulas and moreFirefly-lit dinner and stargazing on the riverbanksStop at traditional Dayak longhouse for a brief introduction into Borneo's tribesExpert guidance from a passionate guide with decades of experienceGood to KnowThis is the most deluxe klotok available — AC cabins and properly plumbed, fresh water showers/toiletsA private experience, tailored just for your groupAll meals, snacks, tea/coffee and transfers are includedLittle to no phone signal during the trip — perfect for a digital detoxThe terrain at the feeding stations is beginner-friendly but can be muddy — bring good shoesNot included: tips, flights, or extra snacks beyond mealsAmenities/facilitiesPrivate air-conditioned cabin with bed and mosquito netFresh water shower and toilet onboard (not river water)All meals cooked fresh by an onboard chefOnboard viewing deck and dining areaTransfers to and from airport or hotel in Pangkalan BunAccommodationThe boat has 2 cozy private cabins that comfortably sleep up to 4 guests with AC The boat can accommodate a maximum of 8 people — extra guests (up to 4) will sleep on the open-air deck, a favorite for those who love falling asleep with natural breeze and listen to the sound of jungle.

Meet your host

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.
