A real highlight for me was being to able to get close to orangutans and learn so much more about them for example, their behaviour. The other highlight was staying in the jungle and living near the iban tribe and getting to know a very different way of living. Also, i just want to say that our facilitators out in Malaysia and Borneo were fantastic and couldnt do enough for us!

Ever since a very young age I have loved orangutans and to be able to have close contact with several orangutans over a period of 2 weeks was an absolutely amazing experience! I got to know each of the orangutans really well, such as their own personalities! The second part of the programme where we travelled into the jungle in Borneo was definitely a 'once in a lifetime experience'! Although at first it was a bit of a shock (when you realise you are actually in the middle of nowhere with no communication with the outside world!), our guide was very reassuring and the tribe were extremely welcoming.

I really enjoyed spending time with the orangutans and helping to entertain them each day. I also really enjoyed the jungle portion of my trip and spending time getting to know the Iban Tribe; I was surprised at how welcoming they were.
