Visite privée d'une semaine du nord de Sumatra

My family and I didn’t really know entirely what to expect when booking this itinerary, but words cannot express how incredibly impressed we were by the end of the trip. Discover Sumatra executed a flawless, seamless, and deeply memorable tour from start to finish. If you are on the fence about booking, do it! It was an absolute 11 out of 10 experience. The hands-down peak of our trip was the trek into Gunung Leuser National Park from Bukit Lawang. Sleeping in half-open riverside shelters, falling asleep to the sounds of the rainforest, and spotting wild orangutans was pure magic. That being said, the hiking can get intense on the 3-Day, 2-Night Jungle Trek, and we had moments of real difficulty within our group with some of the steep climbs and descends. This is where our incredible guiding team truly shone. They stepped in to assist the moment we struggled, even carrying our packs on their own backs for periods of time so we could hike unburdened and reset our bodies. Our main guide, Imran, went absolutely above and beyond every single day to ensure we had the best possible experience. We felt completely safe, comfortable, and cared for with him, as well as with the other guides and private drivers, every single step of the way. Their knowledge of the local ecosystem, plants, and wildlife is unmatched, and their camp cooking (amazing vegetarian jungle lunches and candlelit Indonesian dinners) was fantastic. Beyond the trekking, the rest of the itinerary was incredibly smooth. The 4-hour drives between destinations flew by, and our drivers were great about letting us stop for lunch breaks or photo ops whenever we wanted. All of the scheduled activities, from the sunrise hike up Mount Sibayak and the hot springs to the private cultural tour of Samosir Island, were incredibly well-timed. We truly did not know what to expect going into this, but we came away completely blown away. I cannot recommend Discover Sumatra and Imran's team enough. If you're looking for a seamless, unforgettable adventure, book this tour!

Excellent planning of our trip and great and great support during our trip. Orang-Utan Trekking got us really close. Similar with the Elephants. All guides and drivers were very friendly

Our 7-day Sumatra private adventure with Discover Sumatra was truly unforgettable. From trekking through the jungle in Bukit Lawang and spotting so many orangutans in their natural habitat, to watching the sunrise over Lake Toba and hiking up Sibayak volcano — every day felt magical. The guides were incredible: friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Everything was so well organized and seamless that we could just relax and enjoy the experience. We left with amazing memories and a deep appreciation for this beautiful island. Couldn’t recommend Discover Sumatra more!

We had an unforgettable week in Sumatra, all thanks to Discover Sumatra’s amazing organisation. The two-day jungle trek in Bukit Lawang was challenging but incredibly rewarding — we saw many orangutans and monkeys, slept by the river, and swam in it too! The climb up Mount Sibayak at sunrise with Mel Gibson was another highlight (his pandan brownies and coffee made it extra special). We also loved our time at Lake Toba, getting to know the Batak people and their culture. Sharing an authentic Batak lunch with Eric and his family was a true highlight that gave us a real taste of local life. Huge thanks to all our incredible guides: the jungle team in Bukit Lawang, our safe and experienced driver Aries, brilliant Mel Gibson, and kind Eric on Samosir Island. Beautiful nature, genuine people, real adventure — we couldn’t have asked for more. Can't recommend it enough.

Amazing guides and driver-guides, pleasant places to stay and incredible responsiveness to questions and issues via WhatsApp and email. I was able to work with them and create the experience I was hoping for. Strongly recommend! Also found their guides more ecologically and culturally respectful and knowledgeable than others. Thank you, Christine and Saprol and all of your guides!
