Fascinating
Wealth of
Borneo

Kalimantan Province of Indonesia Borneo Island with a wealth
of
ecological and cultural treasures that
survive deep within the rainforest jungle of Indonesia ’s
largest island. We discover The Meratus Mountains Dense Jungle and
tarditional villages which are a virtual mosaic of traditions
flourishing in the bustling seaports and riverside cities
of Borneo. South Kalimantan ’s dense jungle and wide
terrain of wetlands have traditionally kept the region isolated from
all but the adventurous travelers, and along the upper reaches of
the rivers, you can discover the rich Dayak Culture. The
indigenous
Dayak settlements in the Meratus Mountians of Kalimantan is an ideal
way
to
experience the incredible culture, where village elders practice
traditional medicine and mark their status with intricate body tattoos
and remarkably heavy ear adornments, we will be warmly
welcomed guests in their traditional longhouses. At Borneo you can
enjoy a sightful experience of traditional culture and grand
diversity of exotic flora and wildlife adventure ashore for captivating
jungle explorations and unforgettable encounters in our village visits.
Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime exploration of the Kalimantan Island!
The Expeditions are a collection of exploratories and Indonesia dream
destination journeys
that reflect the particular passions and favorite places. We created
