I had a wonderful 9-day trip in North Sumatra with Rimba Sumatra. A very special thank you to Rimba, who was our main guide and driver throughout the journey, from Bukit Lawang and Berastagi to Lake Toba and Samosir Island. Rimba was always friendly, patient and caring. He drove for many hours almost every day, often 4+ hours, and still took great care of us throughout the trip. Since my English is not very good, he patiently used a translator whenever needed and even taught me English along the way. He also accompanied and guided us around Samosir on the 28th, introducing us to the local scenery and culture. After spending so many days together, we really appreciated his patience, responsibility and kindness. The 2D1N jungle trek was another unforgettable experience. Huge thanks to Tommy, Andika and Immanuel. Even in the middle of the jungle, the food was delicious and beautifully presented, which really surprised us! When my sister and I were bitten by leeches, they took very good care of us. When I became too tired to continue the original route, they were very understanding and quickly coordinated a different route for us. We always felt safe and well looked after. Thank you also to our Mount Sibayak guide, Marison Sitepu, who prepared hot tea and biscuits for us on the mountain so we could regain some energy while enjoying the beautiful sunrise. It was such a thoughtful touch. Everyone was professional, warm and genuinely caring. Thank you especially to Rimba for being with us throughout these 9 days and making the whole journey smooth, comfortable and memorable. Terima kasih banyak! We will always remember this wonderful journey in Sumatra. ❤️🇮🇩

The five days in the jungle were a really cool experience and absolutely worth it. A big thank you to our guide Tommy for a great time – the rafting on the way back was an absolute highlight! The food was always great and there was always plenty of it. I highly recommend this tour to anyone thinking about doing it.

Wat ons aansprak was duidelijke website en communicatie in het Engels. Onze vertraging met de vlucht was geen probleem voor hem ons ons op te halen. Ontvangst in Bukit Lawang was vriendelijk en was perfect geregeld. Wat hebben we een prachtige trekking mogen ervaren. Ook daar had hij engels sprekende gidsen geregeld. Tommy en Adnika waren kundig en heel zorgzaam. Allemaal fijne betrouwbare mensen. Voor ons een echte aanrader. Allemaal bedankt.

De las mejores experiencias del viaje. Mil gracias a Rimba por dejarlo todo súper bien organizado. El trek por la jungla con Jojo y Giok fue lo mejor: no solo nos llevaron a ver orangutanes de forma segura y respetuosa, sino que además son gente majísima con la que te lo pasas en grande. Nos sentimos como en casa en todo momento. ¡100% recomendados!

Thank you Rimba. It was a great trip overall. You made our trip to the north east of Sumatra seamless and simple. Great communication meant we felt confident throughout. We recommend spending at least 3 days in the jungle.

The Sumatra tour and travel was truly a once in a lifetime experience! The jungle was amazing and captivating and our guide Tommy was great!! When we spotted a toucan but couldn’t see it again. He did a toucan call which the toucan responded and allow us to see it again. We did the 5D4N trek. The food was amazing truly above and beyond. The trek was not that intense and we spent a bunch of time swimming and relaxing in rivers. I recommend it to anyone!

Paradoxalement, nous n'avons pas utilisé cette agence pour Bukit Lawang mais pour réserver des transports en taxi privé climatisé entre Medan - le lac Toba - Singkil - Berastagi - Ketambe - Banda Aceh. Les chauffeurs étaient ponctuels, discrets et prudents. La communication via WhatsApp a été très facile, l'interlocuteur étant très réactif. De plus, malgré l'augmentation du prix de l'essence, l'agence n'a pas demandé de supplément au devis établi plusieurs mois à l'avance. Bref, nous recommandons vivement cette agence.

En fantastisk og veltilrettelagt oplevelse i Nordvestsumatra Rimba (Sumatran Tour & Travel.) arrangerede en fantastisk otte-dages tur for os i Nordvestsumatra i Indonesien. Hele rejsen var godt planlagt, og han sørgede blandt andet for transport mellem de forskellige steder, vi skulle besøge. Alt fungerede trygt og problemfrit. Vi begyndte turen i Bukit Lawang, en lille by på kanten af regnskoven. Her havde Rimba indlogeret os på en hyggelig Ecolodge, som var et perfekt udgangspunkt for vandreture i Gunung Leuser Nationalpark. Selvom vi havde lokale guider med på vores todages tur i regnskoven, valgte Rimba også selv at tage med. Det blev en stor gevinst for oplevelsen. Han er opvokset i området og har et imponerende kendskab til både den lokale kultur og regnskovens dyreliv. Samtidig taler han rigtig godt engelsk. Denne kombination gjorde, at vi lærte utrolig meget om både indonesisk kultur, lokal historie og områdets mange dyr. Kommunikationen med Rimba var nem og behagelig både før og under turen. Han var imødekommende, fleksibel og gjorde sit bedste for at opfylde vores ønsker og forventninger. Vi kan varmt anbefale Rimba til alle, der ønsker en personlig, spændende og velorganiseret rejseoplevelse på Sumatra. Han var med til at gøre vores tur helt uforglemmelig.
