Sumatra Orangutan Explore is an ethical trekking agency & guesthouse launched in 2018 which works closely with local guides and local people from Bukit Lawang, Sumatra. We believe that community-based tourism will help us to preserve and
protect our amazing jungle and it's wildlife! 

 

Our team is made of experienced English-speaking guides who are certified by the Indonesia Tourist Guides Association (ITGA-HPI Himpunan Pramuwisata Indonesia). They strictly follow the Gunung Leuser National Park guidelines and do their best to keep the jungle clean and the wildlife safe!

​

We organize unique and unforgettable jungle trekking

 striving to respect and preserve the unique ecosystem & biodiversity of the Gunung-Leuser National Park and especially protect the endangered Sumatran Orangutans. Our eco-friendly daily tours aim to support local people & traditional activities. 

 

The love of nature, respect, sustainability and mutual aid are deeply rooted in Sumatra Orangutan Explore's values. We believe that we all have a role to play in the preservation of the rainforest and its wildlife but also in the support of local communities.

Choosing a trek or a tour with Sumatra Orangutan Explore is your way to act in favor of our amazing but endangered rainforest, its exceptional biodiversity

 and its inhabitants!
