Prompt early pickup from our hotel.Fantastic, knowledgeable guide called K.T, so friendly, great English and explained lots about sites on our journey there and went with us on the whole trip. Also brought some fruit to give to the orangutans. Lovely experience seeing them naturally in the wild, but close up. As a very small group of 4 we were allowed to get right.up close by one fence. Loads of photos and a group photo taken by company came out very well. Lovely 5 hours. K.T only too happy to help. Thankyou for amazing day and experience we won't forget.

This was truly amazing. Be prepared to be moved by the experience. This sanctuary is geared towards not only rescuing orangutans but nurturing them to the point that they may be returned healthy to their native habitat. The staff are committed to excellence and that is demonstrated in every aspect of the sanctuary. The facility and the resources provided for the orangutans is outstanding. Each person we met caring for the orangutans is mission driven, compassionate and dedicated to the wellbeing of their charges. Can’t give enough praise for the work being done. Our guide Ronnie was excellent. He is like a member of the family to those at the sanctuary. He knew the handlers personally and is highly favored. He is personable, knowledgeable, friendly and kind. We had a fantastic day with him as our guide. He likes to add something special to all his tours so satisfaction is almost guaranteed. His English is very good. He also shares interesting information all the way to and from the sanctuary. Consider his tour the gold standard for the orangutans.

Memorable experience not to be missed. Our guide, Ronnie, is very knowledgeable. Even the Orangutans know him! We were able to learn a lot not only about the orangutans but about the country and Penang in general… food, history, culture. Recommend going early to see orangutans in their natural habitat before it gets too hot. Our money helps to support the sanctuary and is very much needed. Ronnie would be an excellent guide for any tour, especially private ones. Enjoy the experience!

Visiting Orangutan Island on December 26, 2025, was a standout experience, primarily thanks to our driver, Ronnie. Punctual, well-spoken, and incredibly friendly, Ronnie provided a safe and comfortable journey while sharing a deep history of Penang and fascinating insights into the orangutans. He truly went above and beyond by facilitating a rare, close-up encounter with a mother and her baby, making the trip feel personal and unique. The sanctuary itself is a remarkable example of responsible wildlife tourism, where humans walk through a "caged" tunnel while the orangutans roam freely across the sanctuary. For anyone planning a visit, I highly recommend going on a weekday morning to avoid the larger, noisier crowds and to catch the animals at their most active before the midday heat. Hiring a private driver like Ronnie is the best way to handle the hour-long trip from Penang as he organises everything for you.

A most memorable return visit to Orangutan island , a rehab and rescue sanctuary that provides a safe habitat for these incredible primates . Thank you Lena for another very informative visit. The orangutans roam freely and are clearly well cared for and loved by the staff. A positive experience and well worth the journey to visit!
