Drift upriver on a klotok boat to see orangutans in the Bornean rainforest.

Tanjung Puting National Park protects peat swamp forest and lowland rainforest along the Sekonyer River. It is one of the best places in the world to see wild and rehabilitated orangutans.

Visitors sleep on wooden klotok houseboats, stopping at feeding stations such as Camp Leakey, a research station founded in 1971.
