Itinerary

  • Semenggoh Wildlife Centre

    For over 20 years, the wardens here trained young orangutans, who had been orphaned or rescued from captivity, how to survive in the wild. The success of this programme has left the surrounding forest reserve with a thriving population of healthy adolescent and young adult orang utans, who are now breeding in the wild. The programme has been transferred to Matang Wildlife Centre, but Semenggoh is still home to its successful graduates, semi-wild orang utans and their babies. They spend most of their time roaming the forest but frequently come back to the Centre for a free meal. If it is the fruiting season in the forest, some or even all of them may not come to feed. This in itself is a good sign and another step on the way to full rehabilitation. Semenggoh Wildlife Centre is home to semi – wild orang utans where they are trained to fend for themselves in their natural surrounding. Some or even all the orang utans may not come to the centre to feed ( 0900hrs / 1500hrs ) especially if it is fruiting season in the forest.

Perfect private 1 on 1 tour to see the Orangutans

Published on Sep, 2024

Really great tour, just my partner and I in air conditioned car with our guide Wesley who was wonderful. Picked up on time direct from our hotel and driven straight to the Orangutans, Wesley sorted everything including entry passes and gave an insight into the City and of course the Orangutans, he obviously has quite a connection to the Orangutans and knows them well, taking us to the best places to make sure we saw them. Then delivered back to our hotel. I highly recommend this tour and Wesley for a hassel free one on one tour. 5 ******

The guide was extremely knowledgeable about orangutans in general and those at Semenggoh.

Published on Mar, 2024

The driver/guide was so knowledgeable about orangutans in general, as well as the orangutans specifically at Semenggoh. I learnt so much from the guide about orangutans that I was not aware of. Also, the guide showed me local plants eg pitcher plants and peppercorn plants and told me about these too. Therefore, he was knowledgeable on a lot of different topics. He was very friendly and sent me several WhatsApp messages on the way back to the hotel containing links of other things to visit in Kuching, and restaurant information. He drove safely and made the visit to Semenggoh extremely enjoyable.

Nice experience

Published on Dec, 2023

Orangutan may or may not show up depending on the season. I was lucky to see three of them. You have to walk in the swamp area, so bring a pair of wet-proof walking shoes.

Amazing morning spent with the Orangutans

Published on Jul, 2023

The whole morning was amazing. We saw 4 orangutans & Ganya one of the males followed us along the path & we were able to see him up close to us. We also saw Seduku the Mother of Ganya resting in a low branch near the road. She is 52 years old. I highly recommend this tour. Our guide Smigeo was amazing & even took us to a market afterwards to show us the local food. The whole tour was an absolute highlight & we managed to take amazing photos & videos

Bucket list experience!

Published on May, 2023

This is a magical experience, a bucket list experience not to be missed! The keepers are very knowledgeable and it is wonderful to see these endangered animals in a natural environment.
