Explore the hidden gems of Indonesia with locals. A once-in-a-lifetime experience that also helps preserve our rainforest. Read Why
Ich habe dort leider nur den 2 Tag und 1 Nacht Trek gemacht, das war viel zu kurz.
Edi und seine Mitarbeiter sind alle sehr nett und freundlich. Das ganze Dorf ist es.
Es wurde sich einfach um Alles gekümmert und sämtliche Sorgen wurden einen genommen. Die Guides sind sehr bemüht und auch lustig. Man merkt richtig dass es ihnen mega Spaß macht den Menschen ihre "Heimat" zu zeigen.

Deze tour geboekt, van te voren geen informatie ingewonnen, achteraf helemaal niet nodig! Super tour! Geweldige gids die alles wist en alle animals wist te vinden, ook veel informatie over de planten. Eten was ook super. Al met al een prachtige ervaring met deze geweldige organisatie.
Amazing tour with these fantastic tour operator. The guides were very friendly and knew everything about the animals,...
Our family (two adults and two teenagers) did a 3D2N tour in January 2018. We were delighted with our experience. Our individual needs and interests (one keen birdwatcher, allergy to peanuts) were accommodated seamlessly.
Our guide Faisal provided additional resources about the birds of the rainforest and was constantly diligent in spotting and helping to identify the birds we had seen (and of...
Local-Guides helped us incredibly with all our questions beforehand via email, and always replied promptly, enthusiastically and patiently! We booked through them also a very comfortable (airco, shower) accommodation, beautifully bordering the jungle, for a supergood price.
And our guides were spectacular! Firstly, I was positively surprised that despite the good price we had, we had not just one...
Met veel plezier hebben we deze jungle trekking gedaan. Adhi was onze gids en heeft ons overal veilig doorheen geloodst. Eerste dag was even wennen, voornamelijk aan het yoga matje om op te slapen..
Ontzettend genoten van de mooie plekken die er te vinden zijn in de jungle. Ook af en toe doorbijten met de vele heuvels en bergen op en neer. Er werd rekening mee gehouden en genoeg pauze ingelast....
We had a 2N/3D houseboattour and this was the absolute highlight of our holiday in Indonesia!
The pick up from the airport was as perfectly organised as the rest of our trip from our friendly manager Nur.
The whole crew and our guide Johannes solicitous accomponied us, that we felt absolutely relaxed on that trip. The food was delicious and in fact, all of our needs got satisfied.

After a splendid tour with LG (local-guides dot org) in Kalimantan, we decided to do the 8 Day Sumatra Tour with them, and it was just another dream come true! We were a bit unsure in the beginning because the price was so much lower than other tour agencies, but everything was super nicely organized! The only reason they are relatively affordable is because they work directly with the local guides,...
Have booked the excellent guide Budi for a few days with my mother and my fiance and was more than satisfied what our guide Budi shows us.
He is very professional and knows so much about the torajan history, which he explains in an good english very enthusiastic (he loves his job, the nature and people.)
Because of him, we could join an ceremony and felt integrated, as he knew everybody and could...
Sal and Budi advised me very well with a choice of itineraries and Yulius and Lia were the best guides. Once he knew my interests, Yulius planned three varied and interesting days and took me to a number of villages and burial sites round Rantepao; as well as attending a funeral, we visited a village where preparations were being made for another, and I was able to see craftsmen preparing the bier,...
We had very high expectations of our Tanjung Puting tour, and it still exceeded our expectations! While cruising along the river sekonyer using klotok, we saw many bekantan and birds. The first feeding place there were some orangutans in tanjung harapan station, and then we set out again down the river and staying near the jungle lodge, a delicious diner completed the fascinating day! We slept under...
3 days 2 nights was the perfect amount of time, spend the days searching for animals and the nights in a shanti camp, eating well prepared meals, with some card trick entertainment. Anytime less than this trekking you get stuck in a bit of a tourist trap at the semi wild orangutans and in season it can become tedious. The furtherin you go the better and less full of other people and a more authentic...
We booked a 4D/3N tour quite late into our planning as we had to move our plans following the earthquakes in Indonesia. Both the staff at Local-Guides and our assigned guide Nur were incredibly helpful before the trip began and provided lots of information to us.
We stayed a night in Pangkalanbun before we set off on the tour. Nur and our actual guide Chris met us at the hotel on time and took us...
We had an amazing time. Our guide, Adhi, met us the evening before at our guest house (Sam's bungalow) and went through the plan for the next couple of days and everything we'd need to bring. He then met us again after breakfast the next morning. He organised for our bags to be stored whilst we were trekking and off we went.
We saw loads of orangutans and other wildlife during our trek, we had our...
Wir hatten im voraus die Tour über die Webseite von Local Guides gebucht und unsere Erwartungen wurden mehr als übertroffen. Es war einmalig!
Wir wurden von unserem Hotel pünktlich abgeholt und zum Boot gebracht. Alles war sehr gut organisiert. Unser Guide Joe Bowo - ein ehemaliger Ranger des Tanjung Puting National Park (siehe auch den Spiegel-Artikel "Orang-Utans auf Borneo - Mensch trifft Waldmensch")...
Boeken ging heel gemakkelijk. Aanbetaling per paypal. Rest contant er plekke (begin dus tijdig met het pinnen van de max. hoeveelheden die je mag). Communicatie was prima. Alle vragen werden snel en duidelijk beantwoord. Bij aankomst wordt je opgehaald door iemand van Local Guides en bij vertrek ook weer weggebracht (handig!).
De boot (One Piece) was prima (met een western toilet en douche. dit...
We did a 3 days/2 nights trek with our guide Randy. He was so helpful, was constantly looking for animals and told us everything about the flora and fauna. Also, he was really considerate about if we could keep up. We saw many different animals and beautiful nature. The camps were also really nice, the food is so good (and so much) and the atmosphere is great - all guides and cooks are really nice....
This tour was an amazing surprise. Everything was well organised. We booked with the help of local guides and had Nur has guide.
The klokok is really nice and peaceful. You sleep in the jungle with these amazing sounds of the animals and the nature.
In october there were not so many people so it was quite nice ans of course seeing the orangoutans is something to do.
The food on the boat was...
I contacted Sal well before my holiday started, and since the beginning he has been nothing but great, thoughtful and creative to find the best solution for my trip that me and my family wanted. The 3 days tour on a boat in the Borneo jungle have turned out to be the best memories of our holiday in Indonesia!
Living on a boat for 3 days, seeing a lot of Orangutan and funny looking proboscis monkeys,...
This tour was more than we expected ! Beyond imagination...and it is not only about seeing orangutans and other animals. Delicious food, comfortable setting included shower and toilet (!) , fantastic service and endless serenity ...
I don't what I like more seeing those beautiful creatures or just be taken away by boat cruise on gorgeous jungle river entire day. Sleeping under sky with pink mosquito...
The tour was wonderful and well organised by our guide Nur.
The residence is a boat known as a klotok. It’s basic sleeping and washing, which is fit for purpose, and makes you feel a lot closer to the jungle. We loved every minute.
The food and drinks on board are excellent. The walks though the jungle even better.
We saw several orang-utans on each day, including a close up (it touched my...
