We really enjoy every single day. The captain, the cook and the guide are really friendly and gentle with us. they really take care and look after us. The guide show us another way of seeing the jungle and the Orangutan far away from the other tourist that this is always good. I would repeat again the tour with them.
100% recomendable.

El equipo del tour (el capitán, el guía, el mecánico, y la cocinera) nos daban un servicio excelente. El barco está cómodo y limpio. La comida estaba rica. Sobre todo, es un tour impresionante. Muy recomendado…
Gracias!!!

Thank you for this tour, i’ll never forget it

A wonderful trip of 3 days in the natural reserve of tanjung piting. The place is really magical and people of a rich and diversified fauna, and especially we had the chance to see the orang utangs (the forest people in Indonesia) What a beautiful meeting. Sailing on the river crossing the park was a pure moment of relaxation and happiness. The staff on board is very kind and a big thank you to the cook who cooked us a real tasty Indonesian foods. Thank you all for these real moments of happiness

Desde el recibimiento en el aeropuerto hasta el viaje en el klotok, todo fue una experiencia inolvidable!!!!
Excelente servicio de todo el equipo: Deny el guía, Alam y el capitán y su esposa.
El barco muy cómodo y limpio y la comida deliciosa. Sin duda lo recomiendo!!!

This trip is wow

The boats up the river which is the only way to see this national park leave from Kumai to get to Tanjung Puting.

You need to get to Pangkalan bun in Borneo. It is easy to book and fly to Pangkalan Bun from most airports in Indonesia. Sometimes it will be two short flights costing about 200 US. I flew Lion Air in conjunction with Wings air.

There is not much to the town of Pangkalan bun. I would recommend that you fly in and get straight onto your boat.

Two nights is all you need. The boats (klotoks) are only allowed so far up the river so it is pointless to spend more time. I did however do three nights and the last day was basically spent chilling on the boat. I enjoyed this quiet time.

“The best thing was cruising down the river with the cacophony of the engine which I found to be melodic and cathartic. Watching the jungle and the trees for movement. Wow so cooool. You felt at peace in a wonderland so far from the life we live. It’s quiet with the sounds of crickets and an insect population bar none that lull you like nothing else I have experienced.”

Guys you will see the Orangutans and big nosed monkeys. Don’t expect to see much else. I saw less than 10 species of birds.

There are numerous choices of boats. I went as a solo passenger on my own. The fancier also traditional boats do have aircon however I would recommend doing it without. Yes it’s hot and humid but not unbearable.

My boat was comfortable and very clean. I had 4 staff members on board. A Captain, assistant, chef and a tour guide.

I paid the equivalent of about 550 US for my trip. I booked through a local guide by the name of Alam. He is honest and communicates well on WhatsApp. Tell him how many people and whether you want a more luxurious version or a simpler boat.

He won’t rip you off and he will fetch you and drop you off at the airport.

Packing List

You only need some shorts and a few T shirts, walking shoes, sunglasses, soap, sun block and mosquito repellent, cap, book, toiletries, extra battery, small torch, camera and binos would be useful. Literally a small carry on bag is all you need.

You don’t need anything warm.

The food is excellent and plentiful so you don’t need any snacks etc. liquor is not allowed in Borneo. E mail me if you need advice on this subject.

Ask for extra ice on your boat if it’s a basic boat. There is no power on these boats.

If you want to ask me anything you can email me at mike@michaelbarker.co.za

Nous voyageons en Indonésie depuis une vingtaine d’années et ce trip boat à Kalimatan avec Alam tour est une de nos plus expérience.
Le staff d Alam , notre guide Buddy , le capitaine, le matelot et la chef cuisinière ont été au top .
Nous avons découvert cet environnement naturel riche et complexe, vu de nombreux animaux , orang outan , nasiques , gibbons, crocodiles, pélicans … la chef cuisinière est excellente elle nous a régalé d’une duper cuisine traditionnelle.
Un voyage inoubliable

We have just returned from a fantastic one day speedboat tour in Tanjung Puting.
Alum was very helpful in organising everything we needed before, during and after the trip. We were fortunate to see orangutans at both stops, as well as monkeys and birds, in between.
Thank you Alum, Podas and our speedboat Captain
