De 10 la experiencia

Llevamos un mes recorriendo indonesia y el tour de 3 días con 2 noches en klotok por borneo es nuestra mejor experiencia. Continuamente desde el barco ves un montón de monos y fuera un montón de orangutanes que nos fascinaron. Nuestro guía yuus fue de 10, atento, simpático y muy interesado en los orangutanes y en la selva en general. Nos fuimos hasta con pena del cariño que le cogimos. La cocinera de 10, comimos mejor que en todo el viaje, variado cada día y cantidad que podíamos haber comido 4 personas en vez de 2. Sin duda repetiríamos. Dormir se duerme muy bien, con el ruido de los pájaros, ves el amanecer cuando te levantas desde la cama. Por la noche te colocan mosquitera y las sábanas y se duerme de 10. Bichos ni uno. Yo no me puse ni repelente y no me picó ni un mosquito en toda la experiencia. Gracias!!!

NATURALEZA, DESCONEXIÓN Y SERENIDAD.

Estoy a punto de volver de uno de los mejores viajes de mi vida, por indonesia. Soy backpacker y aventurera y probablemente lo más increíble de este viaje ha sido Borneo y sus orangutanes. Atravesar el Tajun Puting en Glotok es mágico. Despertarse por las mañanas rodeada de naturaleza, los sonidos de la selva de despertador. Tuve la suerte de tener a Yusuf el primer día y Ryan después como guías locales. Les encanta su trabajo, son agradecidos, amables y están siempre pendientes de ti. Sari, la cocinera, me preparó unos platos de comida local, de lo mejor que he comido en este viaje. Dani desde España me asesoró en todo antes, durante y después. La verdad es que ha sido un puntazo tenerlo siempre al otro lado del WhatsApp. Desde aquí mi agradecimiento total a todo el equipo de Wildlife Dream Tours. 100% recomendable.
