Description

Day 1: Pangkalan Bun - Kumai - Tanjung Harapan

On the first day, you'll be picked up in Pangkalan Bun and transported to Kumai, where the superior category boat awaits for the cruise. Travel up the Sekonyer River towards the Tanjung Harapan National Park, known for its wildlife, including the first orangutans.

Visit two reserves to observe orangutans eating and interacting, alongside other wildlife such as gibbons and proboscis monkeys. In the evening, dock near proboscis monkey colonies or nipa palm areas to see thousands of fireflies.

Day 3: Tanjung Harapan - Pangkalan Bun

After breakfast on the boat, return to Pangkalan Bun for transfer to the airport or hotel.

For an extended adventure, opt for the 4-day private cruise to spend an additional day encountering orangutans in Tanjung Harapan National Park.

Accommodation

Travel and sleep on a 62-foot (19-meter) private, superior-category cruise ship accommodating five passengers (two on an extra bed), featuring a fixed lower deck cabin and a mobile upper deck cabin with air-conditioning and a private bathroom.
