The WILDEST I've ever been - SUMATRA JUNGLE TREK DAY 3
And thus ends the most incredible experience trekking through the Sumatran Jungle looking for orangutans. We managed to see a total of 13 orangutans plus some monkeys. I’d highly recommend using Heri Kibo’s company! He took care of my entire itinerary and trekked the whole jungle along with us!

Orangutans and Sumatra Jungle Trekking in Bukit Lawang, Indonesia
Bukit Lawang Orangutan tracking, trekking and tubing.
I ordered the Bukit Lawang Orangutan tracking, trekking, and tubing activities from the owner of my hotel, Wisma Leuser Sibayak. This was part of my Bukit Lawang and Lake Toba Itinerary. Ricky who was the representative of the hotel was also my guide during the three hours activities. In the afternoon of January 14, after lunch, we started the trekking. Ricky’s associates and colleagues Nuria from Germany and Wan joined us.
We were also lucky to have seen Thomas’ leaf monkey. A relative of the silver leaf monkey I am familiar with in Selangor, Malaysia. It was a male monkey calling its partner using its distinct vocalization. The monkey looked friendly, clean and smooth. It was not scared of our presence at all.
Finally, we reached the meeting point for the tubing activity. There waited Ricky’s partner named Wan. Before tubing, we had a short break. We ate pineapples and some bananas. Then the macaques started gathering nearby which signaled us to already proceed with the tubing back towards Wisma Leuser Sibayak.
January is considered low season in Bukit Lawang. However, there is a chance to find the Sumatran Orangutans like I did.

Dschungel Unterkunft - Thomas Retreat Roomtour - Bukit Lawang - Sumatra - Indonesien
Willkommen zu unserer Dschungel Unterkunft Roomtour vom Thomas Retreat in Bukit Lawang, Sumatra, Indonesien..
5 Tage waren wir im Thomas Retreat Bukit Lawang um um dort die geniale Orang Utan Trekking Tour mit Übernachtung im Dschungel zu machen.
Das Thomas Retreat ist ein schönes kleines Hotel mit aktuell 8 Zimmern (2 sollen wohl noch hinzu kommen), netten Angestellten und einem richtig coolen Restaurant!
Bei uns war kein Frühstück inklusive, also sind wir einfach 3x pro Tag im hauseigenen Restaurant essen gewesen.
Das Essen dort war günstig, sehr lecker und die Portionen wirklich gut.
Probier mal das Sweet Potatoe Curry und zum Frühstück die kleine Fruchtplatte (die bei uns anstatt klein wirklich groß war).
Unser erstes Zimmer war nicht so toll, als haben wir das Upgrade auf ein Deluxe Zimmer genommen, welches uns für 2 Personen pro Tag nur 13,33€ kostete.
Echt genial...
Das Thomas Retreat liegt in Bukit Lawang direkt an einem Fluss, in dem du baden und dich abkühlen kannst.
Die Einheimischen waschen sich sogar weiter unten im Fluss und putzen sich dort die Zähne!
Es war ein wahnsinnig großer Kontrast vom Großstadtdschungel Singapurs in den echten Dschungel nach Bukit Lawang zu kommen.
Insgesamt möchten wir euch aber Unterunft/Orang Utan Tour definitiv empfehlen!
Hier geht es direkt zum Thomas Retreat ⭐⭐ in Bukit Lawang:

Jungle trekking in Bukit Lawang - An awesome experience from North Sumatra
Jungle trekking is the primary activity in Bukit Lawang as it is the gateway to the nearby Gunung Leuser National Park .
Most tourists hire a guide as the jungle is easy to get lost in and requires a permit from Gunung Leuser National Park guide office.
Even though sightings of the orang-utan and other wildlife can never be guaranteed, when following the instructions of your guide the chances are favorable.
Getting too close to an orangutan increases the risk of passing on disease and viral infection, which jeopardizes the orangutans chances of survival and in turn the health and survival of the wild orangutan population in the entire area.
In the forests of Gunung Leuser National Park you can also meet the most famous organgutan – Mina. She is is extremely smart and knows exactly how it works. When there’s a group of people on a jungle trek and Mina appears, a lot of guides are panicking. You have two options: to lave the food behind for Mina and run or to stay calm, try to keep distance and hope that she’s in a good mood and not too hungry.
Another interesting amnimal is the Thomas Leaf Monkey. They have mohawk-style hair, and leap into air with wild abandon as they move from tree to tree.
If you want to go on a multiple day trek make sure you are fit and in good condition. The humidity coupled with the intensity of grade of the hills makes for some hard work but many options for spot. The reward at the end of your jungle adventure is a late afternoon paddle in the river back to the village.
We would like to thank our guide Nurdin, he was great!!

Rafting Journey To Bukit Lawang in the Sumatra with Thomas Jungle Tours Indonesia
Rafting Journey To Bukit Lawang in the Sumatra with Thomas Jungle Tours Indonesia and the Divergent Travelers.
After spending a day hiking in the Sumatra jungle looking for Orangutans we spent the night camped right under a nest of one. The next day we hiked to a remote waterfall then slapped together a homemade raft to float down the river. Check out the full post at

SUMATRA: Bukit Lawang and Gunung Leuser (Indonesia) - Orang-utan Trek
How to get to Bukit Lawing/Gunung Leuser national park?
Most of the guides tell you, you need to take a bus at the bus terminal Pinang Baris. But when we arrived no bus was going and some people tried to scam us. So we went back to main road, just next the to Pinang Baris (Jalan T.B. Simatupang - walk up to Mawar Bakery).
Some small mini busses are driving around here, so we talked to one guy and he took us to Bukit Lawang (Gunung Leuser national park) for 25.000 Indonesian Rupiah. The bus ride takes around 2,5 hours and they will drop you at a bus terminal close to the actual town of Bukit Lawang.
Good advice: Book your accomodation in advance! Some of the guesthouses will send someone who picks you up. You still need to take a becak though, But the ride takes around 10 minutes only and costs 5.000 Indonesian Rupiah.
Where to stay in Bukit Lawang?
There are many guesthouses in Bukit Lawang (in the middle of the Gunung Leuser national park) where you could stay. The town is great, small and very relaxed. You could easily stay here for a week or longer. We stayed in a guesthouse called Garden Inn. Before booking your accommodation, check out where it is. Some of them are a little bit up in the hills, you have a great view, but you also need to hike up a little bit. In low season we paid 150.000-175.000 Indonesian Rupiah per night for a double room. There is no ATM in Bukit Lawang, so bring some money. We got around 3.000.000 Indonesian Rupiah (205 €; $220; £145) for the both of us inlcuding:
-accommodation for 4 nights
-food and some beers
-the bus going back to Medan
-two day Orangutan tour
How to do a orang-utan Trek in Bukit Lawang?
There are several ways to do a Orang-utan trek: 1 day tour, 2 day tour or 3 day tour. We did a 2 day tour and we can really recommend this. We wouldn't do a shorter one, as you won't see that much. Doing this tour you will see thomas leaf monkeys, gibbons and orang-utans (we saw four grown-ups and three babies). A two day tour costs 60 € ($65; £42,50) and includes food and the camp. But keep in mind, it will be a lot hiking (uphill and very very hot), so it is exhausting. Anyways, it was one the best experiences we made during our travel, so do it! Bring some mosquito protection for the way and water. There were nomosquitos at the camp. For an extra 10 € you can raft out of the jungle, back to Bukit Lawang. It's worth it and you don't really want to hike back.
How to leave Bukit Lawang?
There are two ways to leave Bukit Lawang, you can book a bus in your guesthouse, maybe going to Lake Toba. Our you take a becak back to the bus terminal, where you can get a public bus to Binjai (25.000 Indonesian Ruphia). Here you can take an ALS bus back to Medan.

A HUGE orangutan interrupted our trek [Sumatra Jungle Trek DAY 2]
The most exciting thing happened to us while trekking through the Sumatran Jungle looking for orangutans and I'm so happy I got to experience it and share with you too! Stick around for the next day of adventures which include waterfalls, tubing, food and of course more orangutans.
FIRST OF ALL - Sorry for the laaaaate upload. I'm finishing my contract at Universal Studios Singapore very soon and I'm crazy busy moving out of my place, organising upcoming travel, helping friends with video projects (coming soon) and closing loose ends in Singapore all the while trying to enjoy and soak up my last few weeks here! (Excuses excuses excuses)
SECONDLY - Soz for the shaky footage... Hiking and vlogging is hard to do at the same time.
