What to Expect
North Sumatra, a province in the island of Sumatra, is home to vast rainforests inhabited by exotic wildlife, framed by towering volcanoes and scenic waterfalls gushing down into verdant valleys. The northern, riverside town of Bukit Lawang has a well-known orangutan rehabilitation centre. Dubbed as the Paris of Sumatra, Dutch colonial architecture has been preserved in Medan the capital.
This 3-day package is perfect for adventurous animal lovers who are keen to explore the rainforest of Gunung Leuser National Park – a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the northern Sumatera and to see the numerous birds, plants and mammal species – most famously the Sumatran orangutan, Sumatran tiger, Sumatran rhinoceros, siamang gibbon, Sumatran serow, sambar deer and leopard cats. Located alongside the banks of Bohorok river, Bukit Lawang offers a relaxed atmosphere with endless jungle trails promising adventure and wildlife encounters.
