Tanjung Puting Orangutan Tour — 3 Days Klotok Cruise

Tanjung Puting orangutan tour takes you into the heart of Borneo to meet wild orangutans in one of the best places on earth to see them. Over three unforgettable days, you'll cruise the Sekonyer River aboard a private traditional klotok houseboat. You'll watch orangutans swing into the famous feeding stations. And you'll sleep on deck under the stars, to the sounds of the jungle.

It's a relaxed, magical wildlife adventure — easy enough for families, yet wild enough to feel like a real expedition. As a local Indonesian operator since 2006, we arrange every detail so you simply step aboard and enjoy.

Why Choose This Tanjung Puting Orangutan Tour

You meet orangutans up close, the right way. Visit all three feeding camps, including the legendary Camp Leakey, founded by Dr. Biruté Galdikas. Cruise past proboscis monkeys, hornbills and fireflies. Your private klotok comes with crew, guide and cook, so the experience is comfortable and unhurried. We travel responsibly, supporting the conservation work that protects these great apes — learn more from the Orangutan Foundation International. Pair this trip with our Sumatra orangutan trek to see both species, or explore more on our Borneo destination page.

What to Expect

Your days flow with the river and the wildlife. Mornings and afternoons bring camp visits and gentle jungle walks. Between them, you cruise, watch the banks for monkeys, and relax on deck. Meals are freshly cooked on board by your crew. Nights are spent on a mattress under a mosquito net, with the jungle as your soundtrack. The pace is easy and the rewards are extraordinary.
