    It's a rare chance to really get off the tourist map (apart from the first 2 days on the river with the orangutans)....

    Thanks for your review. I was in Kalimantan in 1996 and sounds like nothing has changed! What an adventure it was! One of my greatest experiences was seeing the orangutans
