Day 1: Jakarta - Bandar Lampung - Way Kambas

Day 2: Combination Trip of Elephant and Tiger Track
Today you will visit the Way Kambas Elephant Conservation Centre, home to 65 Sumatran elephants. It is a delight to watch and help bathe the elephants, play with the feisty young ones or learn more about elephant care from the mahouts. This centre is improving all the time and with more attention and support the elephant welfare will rise to the hoped for standard. Then continue to Kalibiru Atas - There you will trek into the tiger territory with your expert tiger guides. The Sumatran tiger is a highly endangered animal but relatively safe in this park. Kalibiru Atas is a very active area for tigers who hunt the sambar deer while graze on the grasses. Late afternoon back to lodge, dinner and overnight. (B, L, D)
Day 3: Bungur River cruise and Short trek trip
After breakfast, take the route to Bungur through rural Sumatra with your guide and park ranger. At Bungur you take a small boat slowly up river for 2 - 3 hours. On the right is the forested park and on the left is a panorama of small holder farms where cattle or buffalo plough the fields. You should see plenty of water birds and raptors. Some of many species of Kingfisher will be seen especially the Small Blue. Hopefully you see some primates (Long tailed Macaques and Langurs – not Siomang Gibbons as they are more central in the Park). During this period you will stop for a coffee break on the edge of the river. After this you will be taken down a side stream for a short hike in the forest to an area which is being reforested (assisted by SIES and ALERT) where there is a park out station. Here you will have lunch, and a short talk of the history of the fire affected area. Then you will have the opportunity to plant your own tree leaving behind your special mark. Late afternoon cruise back to lodge, dinner and overnight. (B, L, D)
Day 4: Way Kambas - Jakarta Airport - Hotel.
Today an early morning you will have fun riding bicycles into the park to search for Siamang gibbon. These primates have a most exotic call and can be easily found by following the sound. You will be able to observe and photograph them well if you can find them in the treetops. If your bicycle safari is not successful the guide can take you further by car. Then back to the lodge for breakfast and transfer to Bandar Lampung Airport for flying to Jakarta. On arrival hotel transfer, check in hotel and relax time. (B)
