From there you are transported with a scooter to the local village, where you can relax and stock up on snacks. Another scooter ride brings you to the klotok boat and the beginning of your river tour. As you sail through the river, keep your eyes peeled for wild orangutans, proboscis monkeys, a few more monkey species, crocodiles, endemic birds, and other wildlife. The guide will explain some of the key details about the wildlife. Bring some sunscreen, water, sunglasses, snacks and patience for the next 3-4 hours, and enjoy the peaceful retreat.
