Kalimantan

Kalimantan
Kalimantan or Indonesian Borneo is a big and still unspoiled island. This green island, only rarely visited by tourists, is the island of the orangutans, vast jungles and numerous big rivers. The indigenous population, the Dayaks, live deep in the woods and are mostly only accessible by boat.

Travelling in Kalimantan brings you in the middle of nature. Comfort is often hard to find. During cruises on the river you will sleep on the boat. On the mighty Mahakam river you’ll experience and be part of life on the river on your private houseboat. In the South near Camp Leaky we use simpler boats, with few other facilities than a matrass, mosquito net and a booth where you can wash on the back of the boat. But at the same time there is a dedicated crew on board that’ll give you their full attention during these beautiful tours.

Climate

Kalimantan klimaat
Kalimantan is warm and very damp! Yearly some 3000mm of rain. The rainy season runs from November until May (included), but even during the rest of the year there are occasional tropical showers.

Example round trips Kalimantan

Neusaap
Travelling over Kalimantan is not so easy. There are only few decent roads and distances are long. For most Kalimantan round trips we frequently use domestic flights. But then you do see everything on the island: Orangutans, the mighty Mahakam river, Dayak villages and the fantastic underwater world around the bounty islands in East Kalimantan.

Duikers can get their fill around the islands Derawan, Sangalaki and Nabucco. Our Indonesia experts will be happy to put together your tailor-made diving trip or round trip.
