PRIMATES AND DRAGONS OF INDONESIA
HIGHLIGHTS
• Sumatra - Indonesia's least visited, but most spectacular
big island
• Gunung Leuser N.P. rainforest and orang-utans
• Climb Mt. Sibayak volcano
• Two days tracking Komodo dragons
• Ubud, the heart of Bali's artistic community
SUMMARY
Combining two of Indonesia's best wildlife experiences this trip
takes in the islands of Sumatra and Bali as well as the archipelago of
Komodo National Park.
Sumatra with its magnificent natural landscapes is probably the
best place in the world to view wild orang-utans and is an essential
stop for any wildlife trip to Indonesia. Gunung Leuser National Park,
home to thousands of orang-utans, is where we start our adventure.
Wild orang-utans are only found in Borneo and Sumatra and some
scientists claiming that they are mankind's closest relative. From our
base at Bukit Lawang meaning 'door to the hills' we have easy access
to the jungle where there are wild animals alongside the many semi-
wild animals in and around the rehabilitation centre.
Komodo National Park is the only place where Komodo dragons can
be photographed in the wild, and despite their size and fearsome
reputation owing to their razor sharp teeth and venomous bite this
is very easily done. They hunt and ambush their prey including
invertebrates, birds and mammals, while the diet of the bigger
dragons consists of deer, as well as considerable amounts of carrion.
The Komodo dragons use their tongues to detect, taste, and smell,
as with many other reptiles, with the help of a favourable wind and
their habit of swinging their heads from side to side as they walk; they
can detect carrion from 9 kilometres away. They are now protected
under Indonesian law, and the national park, was set up to aid their
protection. Whilst visiting the national park there is time to snorkel
on colourful coral reefs where turtles are frequently spotted, and, if
lucky, Manta rays.
Indonesia is part of the Pacific 'Ring of Fire' and the mighty forces
raging beneath the earth's surface exert themselves upon this land
with geothermal activity in the form of steam vents. Billowing sulphur
fumes, hot springs and steaming mud pools can also be seen around
the volcano of Mt Sibayak which we will climb. Ubud located in
the cool mountains, is a traditional country town, the home of the
Balinese Royal family and a flourishing arts centre and is a fitting end
to our adventure.

TRIP NOTES
2
IS THIS TRIP FOR YOU?
This holiday is designed so that you can see the two main wildlife
highlights of Indonesia in a relatively short period of time. There is
plenty to see in the time you are there, and although there is a lot of
travelling involved, everything is scheduled so that it doesn't feel too
rushed. On most travel days the average travelling time is between
4-6 hours, though the day we go from Berastagi to Sanur via Medan
and Jakarta is a full day. There is plenty of time for sightseeing and
the trip has stops where we spend two or more nights.
The wildlife tracking on this trip should not be too hard for anyone
who is reasonably fit though conditions on the trek in Bukit Lawang
(3hrs one day and 2nd optional 6hr trek the next) can be muddy and
humid and takes place on mountainous terrain. Most walks around
the islands of Komodo and Rinca are a few hours.
When we visit Komodo National Park we spend one night on the boat
where the sleeping arrangements are fairly basic, being dorm-style.
Many people, however, enjoy sleeping on the deck under the stars
and find this to be a highlight of their trip.
LAND ONLY ITINERARY
The entries in bold at the end of each day indicate the meals included
(B=Breakfast, L=Lunch, D=Dinner).
Day 1 (Day 2 Ex London) To Bukit Lawang
Those not flying with the group from London will meet the tour
leader at the airport at 0900h (subject to change - see Final Joining
Instructions) and will then meet the rest of the group there. From
the airport we drive to Bukit Lawang (approx. 4 hours) on the edge
of Gunung Leuser National Park. The afternoon is free to simply
relax. Bukit Lawang is one of the most accessible places to spot
orang-utans, thanks to an orang-utan conservation programme
that has been operating on the eastern edge of the park since the
1970s. The national park is one of the orang-utan's last remaining
strongholds, with more than 5000 animals thought to be living in the
wild. Sumatran elephants, Sumtran rhinos and Sumatran tigers are
all also found in the park, though very rarely seen. The village is very
attractive, built along one side of the river; relaxing at the river side
it is not uncommon to see wild orang-utans come down to the water
to drink. Time permitting there is an impressive bat cave that can be
visited today (if time does not permit we'll have the opportunity to
visit it tomorrow), access involves some scrambling and a torch will
be needed. (B)
Day 2 (Day 3 Ex London) Gunung Leuser N.P. and Bohorok Orang-
utan Centre
This morning we will head into the Gunung Leuser National Park
which is one of the two remaining habitats for Sumatran orang-utans.
This is one of the largest national parks in the world, containing over
800,000 hectares of virgin rainforest. We will spend time with our
guide and have an opportunity to explore the trails, searching for
orang-utans and other wildlife. Whilst the Organ-utan rehabilitation
centre no longer exists, semi-wild orang-utans who still can't fully
fend for themselves are fed twice a day. We will visit one of these
feeding sessions. We get the opportunity to see these incredible
relations of ours close-up and learn about the very real threats to
their continued existence. This afternoon is free or explore further
on your own. (B)
Day 3 (Day 4 Ex London) Gunung Leuser N.P.
This morning we return to the Orang-utan centre for feeding time.
We will then venture further from the park headquarters today,
discovering the flora and fauna of the park, and continuing our
search for orang-utans. The park is host to approximately 700
different species of animal, more than 175 mammals, 320 birds,
190 reptiles and amphibians including Thomas leaf monkeys,
macaques and gibbons. Other mammals found include the Sumatran
elephant and elusive Sumatran tiger and rhinoceros, although the
last is unfortunately facing imminent extinction. We are unlikely to
encounter these shy animals. This trek will last approximately 6hrs
and can be taxing given the steep, muddy terrain so is completely
optional. (B)
Day 4 (Day 5 Ex London) To Berastagi with its volcanoes
We head out (approx. 6hrs) to the cool and picturesque hill town
of Berastagi. The town's setting is dominated by its two volcanoes
Sinabung and Sibayak. Although Sibayak last erupted more than a
century ago, geothermal activity in the form of steam vents, billowing
sulphur fumes, hot springs and steaming mud pools can be seen
around the volcano. Berastagi is known for its colourful fruit and
vegetable market and famous for its passion fruit, rambutan and the
foul-smelling (but to many delicious) durian, and we will have the
opportunity stroll around it. We may also have the opportunity to visit
one of the nearby Batak villages with their huge, wooden, communal
houses. (B)
Day 5 (Day 6 Ex London) Climb Mt Sibayak Volcano
Any visit to Indonesia, part of the Pacific 'Ring of Fire' would be
incomplete without visiting a volcano. Today we climb Mt Sibayak
and, if lucky, we may see the resident Siamang gibbons jumping from
tree to tree as we ascend. If we don't see them we will undoubtedly
hear them as they have large gular sacks (throat pouches) that can
be inflated to the size of their head, allowing them to make loud
resonating calls.
Tropical pitcher plants or Monkey Cups are also found on the
mountain, the name Monkey Cups refers to the fact that monkeys
have been observed drinking rainwater from these plants. After an
approx 3-4 hour walk to the crater rim and back there will be time to
relax at a hot spring before the short driving back to our hotel after
lunch. The rest of the afternoon is free. (B)
Day 6 (Day 7 Ex London) To Medan and fly to Sanur (Bali)
Today is a day of travelling. We first drive to Medan (approx 2 hours)
before flying to Denpasar, Bali via Jakarta. Upon arrival in Denpasar
we will drive to Sanur (approx 1 hour), arriving late afternoon/early
evening. Sanur was Bali's first beach resort and remains largely
unchanged compared to the rest of Bali's beaches. (B)
Day 7 (Day 8 Ex London) Fly to Flores; overnight in Labuan Bajo
Today we fly to Labuan Bajo (approx 1½ hours) on the island of Flores.
This is the point of entry for Komodo National Park. Depending on the
flight schedule, there should be some free time and options include
taking a boat to one of the nearby islands for some snorkelling or
visiting nearby caves where stalactites and stalagmites are found. (B)
Day 8 (Day 9 Ex London) Rinca Island
Komodo National Park, established in 1980, is comprised of islands
and the surrounding sea and includes mangrove forests, sea grass
beds, and colourful coral reefs. The three main large islands are
Komodo, Rinca and Padar although many smaller islands come within
the park boundaries.
Early this morning we will board our boat and sail to Rinca Island
(approx 2 hours). We leave the boat and, after a short briefing on
the life and habitat of the Komodo Dragons, travel on foot in search
of these giant lizards. Rinca Island is smaller than Komodo and the
frequency of sightings on Rinca is higher. We will walk for between
two and three hours today before returning to our boat for lunch. We
then sail to a nearby beach and coral reef teeming with fish, where
turtles are frequently spotted and if lucky Manta Rays. Snorkelling
(optional) is highly recommended. Tonight is one of the most idyllic
as we spend the night on board the boat anchored just off Komodo
Island. Whilst the exact spot where we anchor may vary it is usually
just off of some mangroves. Sleeping on the boat means we can spend
3
more time enjoying Rinca and Komodo and avoid having to return
all the way back to Labuan Bajo only to sail out again the following
morning. Accommodation on the boat is dormitory style though many
people chose to spend the night on deck, sleeping under the stars.
(B,L,D)
Day 9 (Day 10 Ex London) Komodo Island
The next morning we travel the short distance to the ranger station at
Loh Liang (about 15mins). Here we will be escorted by a local guide
and trek one of the routes which takes us through dry forest, a dry
river bed and over a hill, for about two hours. Vegetation on Komodo
island is different to that on Rinca being denser and with less grassy
hills. At the end of the walk we will return to our boat for lunch, before
sailing to "Pink Beach" for more swimming and fantastic snorkelling
(optional). The beach is named for the colour of its sand a mix of red/
pink corals. We end the day back at Labuan Bajo.
The day-to-day schedule for these two days should be taken only as
a general guide. A variety of factors, including currents and adverse
weather conditions, can lead to changes. Snorkel equipment can be
hired in Labuan Bajo before setting off at a per day rate. (B,L)
Day 10 (Day 11 Ex London) Fly to Bali and onto Ubud for free time
We fly back to Denpasar this morning and then drive (approx 2 hours)
to Ubud, surrounded by rice fields and temples, our final destination.
Ubud gets its name from the Balinese word ubad (medicine); the town
was originally important as a source of medicinal herbs and plants,
but these days is known for its artistic community, awash with artists'
workshops and art galleries. Ubud's history can be traced back to
the eighth century, when a Buddhist priest came to Bali from Java,
he meditated at the confluence of the two Wos rivers at Campuan,
just west of the modern day town centre. A shrine was established
and later expanded by Nirartha, a Javanese priest who is regarded as
the founder of Bali's religious practices and rituals as we know them
today. When Ubud became a Dutch protectorate at its own request,
the colonialists interfered little, allowing the traditional arts and
culture of the area to remain relatively unchanged. From the 1930s
onwards western artists and intellectuals arrived furthering the local
art scene, amongst them Charlie Chaplin and H.G. Wells. Ubud is still
a haven for literati, glitterati and art collectors. Upon arrival in Ubud
the day is free to explore. (B)
Day 11 (Day 12 Ex London) Free day
A wide range of optional excursions are possible today depending
upon peoples preferences. There are many temples and palaces to
visit including Goa Gajah, popularly known as the Elephant Cave.
Dating back to at least the 11th century, and originally a dwelling
for Hindu priests, the main highlights of this temple is the short
cave with a massive carved face of a demon at its entrance and the
holy pools. Legend has it that the pools were considered to be a
fountain of youth. The Mother Temple of Besakih, or Pura Besakih, in
the village of Besakih is the most important, the largest and holiest
temple of Agama Hindu Dharma in Bali. The temple probably dates
to the fourteenth century. It was built on the south slopes of Mount
Agung, the principal volcano of Bali and is actually a complex made
up of twenty-two temples that sit on parallel ridges. It has stepped
terraces, and flights of stairs which ascend to a number of courtyards
and brick gateways that lead up to the main structure. Gentle treks
around Ubud's rice fields or white water rafting are available for the
more adventurous, while interesting dance performances in former
palaces, or temple ceremonies depicting the eternal struggle between
good and evil play out in Ubud's mythical Barong and Kris dances.
Your tour leader will be more than happy to advise you on how best
to use your time. (B)
Day 12 (Day 13 Ex London) Transfer to Denpasar and depart
Trip ends after breakfast for Land only clients. (B)
For those on group flights, these depart in the evening and will arrive
in the UK the following day.
ACCOMMODATION AND FOOD
4 nights' comfortable hotels, 6 nights standard hotels, all en suite
and one night on board the boat in Komodo National Park. The night
spent on the boat is one of the most idyllic as we anchor in a quiet
bay. Accommodation is dormitory style with shared bathroom and,
if the weather is nice, it is possible to sleep on deck under the stars.
The accommodation is mostly two or three star. At Bukit Lawang the
hotel only has cold water, but as outside temperatures are hot this
is refreshing.
Food is cheap in Indonesia and you can generally avoid the spicier
food if you wish. Western food is readily available. Restaurants come
in all shapes, colours and standards; expensive- restoran, standard-
rumah makan and simple- warung. Quite often tea or water (aqua)
is drunk with a meal, beer is often not cold and coffee is unfiltered
and usually very sugary. Drinking water and tea/coffee are included
for the two days whilst on board the boat visiting Rinca and Komodo
Islands.
Single Accommodation:
Single rooms are available for a supplement, please enquire for
prices. Please advise the sales team at the time of booking if you
require a single room.
Extra Accommodation:
Is available before and after the trip, please ask your sales consultant
if you wish to book extra nights.
TRANSPORT
We use a private coach usually with air-conditioning. Road conditions
are often not good, and progress can be slow because of the roads
in Sumatra or heavy traffic in Bali. Most travel days the average
travelling time is between 4-6 hours. We also use a boat when visiting
Rinca and Komodo islands. All bookings on domestic flights are made
in economy class.

WEATHER AND SEASONALITY
Indonesia has an equatorial monsoon climate with the weather
remaining similar throughout the year. It is hot and humid;
temperatures range from 23-33ºC during the day and rarely drop
below 20ºC at night. In the mountains temperatures are much cooler
and on the coast sea breezes usually keep temperatures comfortable.
In most parts of Indonesia the long rainy season falls between late
October and early May, though rain occurs throughout the year. Rain
tends to come in sudden tropical downpours.

your agent to confirm up-to-date timings. Please note timings may
change at a later date and cannot be confirmed until approximately
two weeks before departure.
Internal flights during the trip are with a local airline.
UK Regional Flights

RESPONSIBLE TOURISM
Tourism can be a real help to local communities, providing income,
positive cultural exchanges and a financial incentive to protect their
natural environment. Ours is a 'total approach' to responsible tourism,
covering everything from the way we plan and operate our trips to the
practices of Exodus as a company. Local restaurants are used for
lunch stops throughout the trip benefitting the local community, and
our visits to the orang utan centre and Komodo National park helps
support conservation.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Passports and Visas
All nationalities require a full passport that must be valid beyond the
intended length of stay. It is your responsibility to have the correct
personal documents and to obtain your own visa, if one is necessary,
in accordance with the regulations of the country you are to visit.
The information offered below is to help you with that process. We
are not responsible for the actions of local immigration and customs
officials, whether at points of entry or otherwise, and any subsequent
effects.
A visa can be obtained on arrival for British nationals. This will cost
approximately USD$25 depending upon nationality .
Visa regulations can change without notice: please check the current
regulations in good time to obtain a visa if one is required.
Vaccinations and Health
Travel health can often be something people forget about before
going away, but a little preparation and knowledge can go a long way
to help you stay fit and healthy while abroad.
There are no mandatory vaccination requirements for this trip.
Recommended vaccinations for this trip are: Polio, Tetanus,
Diphtheria, Typhoid, Hepatitis A.
Malaria prophylaxis is essential on this trip, and we suggest that you
seek advice from your GP or travel health clinic about which malaria
tablets to take.
Dengue fever is a known risk in places visited on this trip. It is a
tropical viral disease spread by daytime biting mosquitoes. There
is currently no vaccine or prophylaxis available for Dengue, and
therefore the best form of prevention is to avoid being bitten. We
recommend you take the usual precautions to avoid mosquito bites.
The above information can change at short notice; as we are not
qualified to answer all your questions about travel health we strongly
recommend you contact your Medical Professional or a Travel Health
Clinic at least 8 weeks prior to departure for up-to-date information.
Insurance - are you adequately covered?
You must have adequate travel insurance, and if you are joining a trip
which goes to high altitude, you must check that you are covered up
to the maximum altitude of the trip. If you are resident in the UK we
strongly recommend Exodus travel insurance, which is specifically
designed to cover all activities on your trip.
If you are a UK citizen and travelling in Europe you should obtain the
European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) from your Post Office. This
gives free medical care in many European countries, but should not
be considered a substitute for adequate insurance.
Local Time
GMT +7hrs.
Group, Staff and Support
The group will generally be between 6 and 16 people. There will be a
local leader and drivers and local guides where needed.
The minimum age of clients on this trip is 16 years. Please note
that anyone aged under 18 must be accompanied by (and share
accommodation with) a parent or legal guardian.

MONEY MATTERS
Currency Information
The national currency of Indonesia is the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR),
with an exchange rate of 17500 to the UK£ and 11000 to the US$.
Exchange rates are correct at the time of publication.
ATM availability/Credit Card Acceptance/Travellers cheques
ATM's are now widespread in Indonesia and is the easiest way of
obtaining money. It is possible to draw a maximum 2,000,000
IDR in one go. Credit card acceptance is not widespread at places
that you will visit, except for Ubud in Bali. Travellers cheques are
not recommended, as the rate will be lower than for cash, and they
can only be changed in the main cities only which is usually time
consuming.
As you will probably be carrying much of your money in cash, we
strongly recommend using a money belt.
Extra Expenses and Spending Money
You should need about £150-£200/$240-320 for all meals not
included, which will allow you to eat well. Apart from the food, you
should allow money to cover soft drinks (more if you like a beer) and
souvenirs. There is an airport departure tax of 150,000 IDR which
must be paid in cash. Some temples and sights charge a nominal
camera fee, your leader will be able to advise you on exact amounts.
Optional Excursions (approximate costs, depending on group
sizes)
There are a number of optional activities, which if you wish, your
leader can arrange for you. They are subject to schedules and
availability; your leader will let you know what is available and the
exact local costs.
It is also possible to arrange many of these activities independently
if you prefer.
Labuan Bajo
Snorkelling at nearby island from £15/$25pp (number dependant)
Caves with stalactites and stalagmites (number dependant) taxi costs
from approx £15/$25
Snorkel equipment £3/$5 per day for Rinca/Komodo Island
Ubud
3 hour bike tour around Ubud £15/$25
Full day temple tour £30/$48 less for individual temples
White water rafting £40/$65
Tipping (leader and local staff)
This is entirely at your own discretion however; we suggest that you
allow a few pounds for tips for the local guides and staff. In Indonesia
with the increase in tourism, tipping has become customary. The
local staff will probably expect some gratuity and we suggest you
allow for this. The leader will suggest to the group that they donate
a sum of £20/$32 per person towards a kitty on arrival. This money
is then used for tipping of local guides, hotel porters, drivers etc. It
is basically to ensure that the hassle is taken out of various activities
for you. If you do not wish to contribute to a central pool for tips you
are of course free to do so.
If you feel that your leader has performed well over the course of your
trip, you may want to show your appreciation of their services. The
sum you choose to give is entirely personal, but as a guide, £2-3/$3-5
per person per day would be a reasonable starting point.
The 'tipping kitty' explained above is entirely separate from any
contribution to the tour leader. Our local staff are paid well and fairly
for their work with Exodus.
WHAT TO TAKE
Essential Equipment and Clothing
Casual clothes. As it is generally hot and humid, light cotton (neutral
colours as this will make animals and birds more approachable) are
recommended for most of the trip, though it will be colder in Berastagi
and you should bring a light jacket/jumper with you. Please note that
Indonesia is a Muslim country so modest dress is required on this trip
when visiting holy sites and rural areas (i.e. legs, shoulders and upper
arms to be covered as well as a headscarf for women).
Sandals are useful as they are cooler and are easier to take off when
visiting temples
Torch/flashlight
Strong walking shoes for the jungle walks in Gunung Leuser N.P. and
Komodo N.P. and Mt Sibayak
Sun cream, sun hat, sunglasses, lip balm
Swimming costume will be well used
A rucksack is needed as you will be carrying your own gear during
the day walks
Lightweight waterproof jacket or an umbrella
Optional items:
You may like to take a mosquito net if you think you will get bitten
by mosquitoes, as these are not always provided. Rash vests or swim
suits that are like shortie wetsuits as they can protect you from the sun
whilst snorkelling. Binoculars. There are a number of opportunities to
go snorkelling and you may want to bring your own mask and snorkel.
Baggage and Baggage Allowance
At time of writing the standard weight limit for hold baggage on
the recommended international carrier for this trip is 20kg. We
recommend packing only one piece of checked baggage.
Internal flights in the destination country are subject to a weight limit
of 15kg.
As advice about luggage allowances for both hand and hold luggage
is subject to change, we suggest you check www.baa.com and/or the
airline's website for the latest information prior to your departure.

The information in these Trip Notes is given in good faith. Where
differences exist between the Trip Notes and our current brochure,
the Trip Notes supersede the brochure. All holidays can be subject to
unexpected changes; in order to enjoy them you should be prepared
to be flexible where necessary. Occasionally, as stated in our brochure,
it may not be possible to follow the itinerary as planned. This may
be for a variety of reasons - climatic, political, physical or other.
In these circumstances we will make the best possible alternative
arrangements that maintain the integrity of the original itinerary.
As fuel prices, airport taxes and exchange rates fluctuate, and airlines
manage their rates to match demand, it is proving harder than ever
to guarantee our Flight Inclusive prices. Although we endeavour to
keep our website as accurate as possible, daily fluctuations mean that
our Flight Inclusive price may be out of date. For accurate prices we
recommend that you contact one of our Travel Experts, or your Travel
