  • tanjung puting national park

    • During three days eat and sleep on a boat, roaming the dense jungle of Tanjung Puting. Visit the orang utan feeding places and encounter these majestic big red apes up close and personal, although not too close!
    • There is time for walks in the jungle, but watch out for the monkeys and birds in the trees around you. At night see the magical fireflies light up the forest before falling asleep to the everchanging sounds of the jungle.

  • river of endless uses

    • Sit back and relax in a boat ride while exploring the city of Banjarmasin and its colourful morning market before wandering around the city on foot, passing hanging bridges and small rivers. It’s amazing to see what the locals use the rivers for, not only for transport, but also for bathing, washing clothes, swimming, you name it! Enjoy a traditional lunch seated on mats in a local home and see how the people look for diamonds and gems in the muddy mines. Afterwards you have the chance to bargain for precious stones at the local gems market.
