We wanted to take a trip around Tanjung Putin National Park
on a klotok, a type of traditional boat, but it is quite expensive and there so
many tourist companies and individual guides to choose from we were spoilt for
choice (read: confused as hell). Luckily,
however, we had met an Australian couple very briefly at a hotel in Saigon and
they had just returned from Borneo and taken a klotok trip with a local guide
called Jenie Subaru. They absolutely raved
about him and could not recommend him highly enough so about a week before we
wanted to take a trip we contacted him by email, agreed a price (cheaper than
the Australian couple had told us) and it was all arranged for him to meet us
at the airport and take us straight to the boat for our trip in the Tanjung
Putin National Park, primarily to see the orang-utans.
