Orangutan Applause gave us one of the best travel experiences of our lives. The trip was perfectly organised, with the crew and guide constantly looking after us to make sure we had the most comfortable and relaxing experience possible. They were always attentive to wildlife sightings, always friendly, and always ready to help with anything we needed. The food was also really good. We also felt like we were treated by the crew and guide as part of the family throughout the whole trip, which made it even more special. If I ever go back to Tanjung Puting (which I’d love to), I would choose them again without hesitation. A solid 10 out of 10. (3D/2N for 3 people)

This tour exceeded all our expectations. Our guide, Gu, has an incredible depth of knowledge about the flora and fauna, and he also shared a lot about the local culture. You can really tell that he is passionate about what he does, especially when it comes to orangutans. We honestly couldn’t have imagined a better guide. At first, we were a bit worried about food since we hadn’t brought any snacks, but that turned out to be completely unnecessary. There was more than enough food, and everything was delicious and varied thanks to the excellent cook. The entire crew was extremely friendly, always in a good mood, and clearly enjoyed what they were doing. Their enthusiasm for nature and culture was genuinely contagious and made the whole experience even more special. The accommodation on the boat was very comfortable. The beds were cozy, the mosquito nets were secure, and we slept really well. The bathrooms were clean and surprisingly spacious for a boat. We had incredible wildlife sightings, and the team always made sure to take their time so we could fully enjoy each moment. Seeing orangutans in their natural habitat was deeply moving for us. The route itself was beautiful, the organization was excellent, and the overall value for money is outstanding. If you’re lucky like we were and get to see so many amazing animals, you’ll truly appreciate how attentive the guide and crew are in making sure you don’t miss anything. Highly recommended.

The 3D2N tour is possibly the best guided trip I’ve ever been on. From the start the team were friendly and helpful in organising the tour and provided all the info we needed to make the booking. In the day we were collected punctually and driven to the port where we met by Dessy and our incredible crew (Captain Dedet, Guide Ipung, Boat assistant Danu, and Cook Ira). We spent the next 3 days cruising along the river with Ipung pointing out monkeys, birds, and the occasional crocodile. The feeding stations were an amazing experience - Ipung had warned us that it’s always possible that orangutans might not show but on both days we were able to watch them as part of a small crowd, truly magical. Ipung also organised a night trek as well as a jungle walk on the second day. The plentiful meals on the tour were delicious and varied (I think we may have put on weight over the 3 days!). The bedding was comfortable and it was special to fall asleep listening to the river’s nature, and wake up to the sight of the forest. All in all an incredible experience and I’m glad we chose Orangutan Applause over other operators.

this was an amazing unique experience , staying on a houseboat and cruising through the national park. Loads of wildlife to see, amazing food , and great crew and tour guide !!! The crew were super attentive and we felt very looked after. We had fresh sheets every night which was not expected and a nice touch. Our guide, puun (not sure how to spell it!) was full of knowledge and we could feel how passionate she was about the flora, fauna and culture in borneo. We appreciated the food a lot as one of us is vegetarian and we had plenty of variety with the dishes served, which were delicious.

We loved our experience! What an adventure! First, Dessy took great care of us, making sure we had every detail cared for including a driver to pick us up from airport. Dessy was very responsive and communicated great over WhatsApp! Our tour guide’s name was Alan and he was sensational! He was so knowledgeable of everything and we felt so taken care of by him. We were nervous about spending two nights on the boat but the crew took such good care of us. We had a dedicated toilet/shower for us to use. The meals were AMAZING! We saw so many orangutans in the wild and at feeding places we lost count. Going in early January (during slow season) was special because we felt like we “owned” the river. We spent a whole month in Indonesia, but our 3 days in Borneo with this tour was our greatest joy! Highly recommend!!!

It is our first trip to Indonesia and visiting Borneo was planned as part of our experience. We were lucky to book the Orangutan Applause 2 nights/3 days river boat tour oferred by Dessy. We spent unforgetable hours with Uri, Hamda, Jedi and Agus cruising along the Sekonyer River in the Tanjung Puting National Park. We had encounters and fun wuth orangutans, macaques, colorful birds and butterflies, night trecking in the equatorial jungle, and other educational naturalist moments. All complimented with excellent tour guide Uri, fantastic cook Hamda, and remarkably skillfull captain Jedi and Agus - it was a holiday tour to remember. And there was a Christmas surprise dinner, too! Special thanks to Orangutan Applause and team - keep up the good works and we hope to see you again soon! Alex and Iva

We thoroughly enjoyed the experience of touring on the river cruise boat . We saw plenty of wildlife along the way and it was good to see how the river culture operates. There was a good balance of activities, viewing the orangutans, going for a few forest walks and having some relaxing down time as well. It was surprising how calming it was cruising along on the boat for a couple of hours each day. Nikita was a wonderful guide to have. She was very friendly and welcoming and had a bright, bubbly personality. She made sure we were looked after at all times. She paid a lot of attention to detail, supplying us with umbrellas and cool face washers to keep us cool in the humid weather. Also had insect repellent and sunscreen for us if required. She was very informative about the orangutan project and the environmental and sustainable issues. She was also able to answer all of our questions. She gave us space when we needed it but was lovely and social when we wanted company. We found her very easy to get along with and she communicated with the other staff very well. Isul and Igul our boat captain and assistant were very good people also. Their skill level at manoeuvring the boat into its various locations was excellent. We felt very safe with them. They were attentive to ensuring we were safe getting on and off the boat and were warm and friendly. Tarmi our chef #was also happy and friendly and served us lovely meals. There was a lot of variety in the meals served. We never ate the same thing twice. There was plenty of food and drinks and it was all very tasty. We were served four dishes and fruit each meal. Highly recommend this experience. Thankyou to all of the team.
