Licensed Tourist Guide: Mr. Sim Kheng Kiat whose passion and knowledge have brought the world of the orangutans to life for us. His expertise and heartfelt storytelling have allowed us not only to learn fascinating details about these amazing creatures but also to feel a personal connection to their world and their plight.

The commentary was engaging, informative, and delivered with deep respect and affection for these majestic primates, leaving visitors both educated and moved.

As we venture into the heart of Borneo’s rainforests to meet the incredible orangutans, known as the ‘people of the forest’. These remarkable creatures, whose name literally translates from Malay as orang meaning ‘person’ and hutan meaning ‘forest’, are one of our closest relatives in the animal kingdom, sharing around 97% of their DNA with humans. Isn’t that amazing?
