Sarawak: Rencontre Unique Orang-outans Semenggoh Sauvage!

This was definitely the highlight of our stay in Sarawak. There was a lot of waiting around but when you can see orangutans, who really cares? Very well organised although it didn't feel that Semenggoh was open long enough to experience all the walks there, which was a bit weird. Very, very glad we took the tram because the walk to the feeding platform is a long one - especially in the heat. Our driver/guide from Klook was very knowledgeable and pointed out orangutan nests and when branches were moving showing activity. He knew the history as well and explained how the alpha male became the alpha male. He also explained the dynamics of the troop well. We were delighted that a mum and baby showed up. They kept the park open a bit longer so we could see them properly. It was amazing. Then a very steep upward climb to the cafe/giftshop and the tram back to the carpark!

A truly unforgettable experience. I went as part of a World Challenge tour group to Semenggoh in July 2025 and had an amazing time. We saw 8 different Orang Utans feeding. The guide was funny and informative and it was clear that everyone working there took great pride and pleasure in their job. We were lucky though as our guide did highlight that you don’t always see as many, especially in fruiting season when there is less need for the orange utans to come to the feeding stations. Location wise, I can’t really comment because we went on a coach tour but it was only about a 30 minute journey from the centre of Kuching.

Wonderful tour guide, Eng. Very informative, on time pick up. Beautiful place and we loved the orangutans!

Fabulous experience and excellent facility very lucky to to 5 Orangutangs. Best thing i have ever done would full recommend you go. We went during the fruiting season and was advised we might not see any. We waited quietly and it was not long before. The first appeared and then they just kept coming. We even managed to see a very large Orangutang and a shy 3 week baby in the tree. We caught the buggy to the feeding station and return

Stunning scenery, absolutely loved this trip. Rangers so professional and friendly,so much knowledge. Loved seeing Orangutan

Wynn - my guide , so knowledgeable & set expectations right , from the beginning . Whether or not the orangutan shows up or not is not upto anyone . While we waited for them if at all they showed up , Wynn had so much valuable information to share which made me appreciate the species even better than I started . Luckily for me - Edwin and Dania showed up . The atmosphere was unbelievable giddy for everyone there 😀

Lovely experience , thankfully we were able to see 5 orangutans. They are so beautiful to watch in their safe environment. Apparently we were thankful to had seen so many as others hadn’t seen any during their feeding time. Magical moment to see them.

Our guide Eng was delightful & gave us a brief history of Kuching while we drove to Semenggoh Nature Reserve to see the Orangutans, which fortunately we did.

Great guide! Highly recommended. Very Informative and reliable. Excellent english. Good and safe driver.

Our guide Kim was fantastic who looked after us on our day trip to see the Orangutans and wildlife on this typical monsoon rainy afternoon in Sarawak Walking thru the rain forest was an experience and seeing these animals in safe surroundings was 5 Star ⭐️ We were mesmerized for 2 hours watching and being told about the animals and history of the venue The venue is a tad tired in some areas and decking & seating was broken which does need some TLC but never the less the object was completed in seeing these animals Great day for animal lovers
