" HOW CAN WE MAKE YOUR DREAM COME TRUE?
08 June 2016Welcome 2 PT. Orang Utan Kalimantan Tour & Travel.
We are a small orangutan tour company, offering you the opportunity to see orangutans in their natural environment. Let us bring you in the mystic Tanjung Puting National Park, located on the island of Borneo, in the Province of Central Kalimantan, Indonesia.
Unfortunately, orangutans are one of the endangered species in this fast growing world. Their natural habitat is quickly being destroyed by deforestation to meet the high demands of our capitalist economy. It`s with great respect and compassion that we would like to bring you to the orangutans’ world. By doing so, we also open doors to the local community, giving them a chance to find new jobs opportunities that are better for our environment. Slowly but surely, they too might become strong supporters of their natural resources. If we can all end up helping the orangutans cause, little by little, maybe there`s still hope!
The creation of PT. Orang Utan Kalimantan originates from our loving couple, Ennog and Isabelle, who met in the jungle of Indonesia in 2006.
Ennog is an Indonesian, born in the village of Kumai Subdistrict in Central Kalimantan. In his early age, he could see foreigners departing from the port of Kumai by boat, to reach the Tanjung Puting National Park. That`s where they could find the mysterious orangutans. Ennog was fascinated by these visitors. So later, he found a job with one of the boat owner, to work as an assistant on the boat. He then got a job as a cook on a boat, then as a captain and finally became a tour guide.
Throughout these years of experience, he managed to learn English and also participated actively in various training to obtain the following certificates:

2. The making of a documentary with the Australian Orangutan Project (AOP), regarding the Orangutan Threat by Palm Oil Companies around Pangkalan Bun

As the years went by, she travelled to see more of the fauna around the world, and ended up in 2006 in the jungle of indonesia for an Orangutan tour. "
