Before embarking on a jungle tour, guests will get acquaintated with the island’s history at Medan, the region’s capital with visits to the ultan's Deli Palace and the Great Mosque.

A drive through the verdant scenery takes guests right in the heart of the jungle. Two important Indonesian animals, the Sumatran elephant and the orangutan are waiting over at Gunung Leuser National Park.

Guest will then make their way to Batak Karo, a traditional village at Peceren before you reaching Brastagi, an area known for its cool climate, orchids, flowers, vegetables and fruits. It is also home to the Batak Karo people, who have unusual wedding, and funeral ceremonies which can last for days.

The adventure continues with more excursions to other natural sites, such as Lake Toba and Samosir, an island within a volcanic lake. The cascading Sipiso-piso Waterfall in the Batak highlands and the village of Pematang Purba will be experienced along the way.
