Sumatra orangutan experience, Indonesia
From
AU $2,510
excluding flights
Memorable parts? Seeing Orangutans was very memorable and exciting. Tips? Travel light. For the jungle have some spare clean clothes. Wear good mid height walking shoes not trainers, unsuitable. Lots of river crossings so trousers that turn to shorts are good & flip flops essential. Bring mints, chews, any small things you can share with the fantastic guides. Local benefits? I felt I bonded well with the local guides and I hope I respected them as much as they supported ... (more)David Rimmer

Singapore and Lombok holiday
From
£3,575
including UK flights
Memorable parts? A lot to mention, but we were lucky with our timing in that we got to see the independence day celebrations in both Singapore and Indonesia (Lombok). The event put on by Sudamala Senggigi in particular was fantastic. Tips? I would spend more time exploring Lombok over going to Bali. Local benefits? In Lombok, yes, in Bali not so sure. Lombok is very beautiful, unspoilt and the people are wonderful. Bali feels a bit spoilt to be honest. Yes, there are ... (more)Chris Deighton

All the holiday was memorable but for me: going into the rainforest and seeing truly wild orangutans and a family of foraging Thomas Leaf Monkeys close up without a care of being watched. Snorkelling in the Komodo National Park... (more)Val Golding

Komodo and Flores holiday in Indonesia
From
£6,450
including UK flights
Memorable parts? The trip upriver on the house boat in Tanjung Puting NP, Kalimantan, was extremely comfortable and enjoyable. There were lots of orangutan sightings at the feeding stations. The fireflies in the nipa palms on the river banks are fabulous. The reefs in the Komodos Islands are simply some of the most stunning in the world and the variety of corals and sealife is prolific for the snorkeller including: manta rays, stingrays, turtles and reef sharks. The exodus of fruit bats ... (more)Clive Porter

Java and Lombok 11 day tour
From
£1,396
excluding flights
Memorable parts? The people, Borobodur, Prambanan, cycle ride through the fields eating fruit from the trees, coffee plantation, Bromo, hotel in Bali. Tips? As well as the jet lag at the beginning, there are some early starts - pace yourself and have a rest at the end. Local benefits? The focus was very local, so hopefully benefits were targeted there. As much as possible, our footprint was managed. And the people on the ground were aware, especially at the Bali hotel, ... (more)jonathan hall

Very enjoyable. Having a guide and driver was great because it meant we did not have to make any decisions or bookings. Our guide met with us while we ordered dinner, explained the next day and asked our preferences and then we just turned up and enjoyed. This allowed me to really relax. (more)Will Pulsford

Excellent trip, our guides were outstanding. The trip was well managed and our food and accomodations were generally excellent. (more)Leslie Miller
It seems strange to say but the highlight of the trip was attending a funeral in Toraja. The lavish ceremony, held over five days, is like nothing I have ever seen. There were hundreds attending the ceremony and dozens of buffalo and even more pigs slaughtered to feed the people. (more)Simon Emery
Simply amazing! (more)Gerard Mulryan
