    Brian and his staff are very kind and welcoming. If you are planning to do a jungle trek, this is a perfect accomodation. At first we were a bit shocked by the price of the jungle trek (2.600.000 rupia for 2D1N per person), but after asking around...

We are proud of our guesthouse on the hill of Bukit Lawang. We like to show you the jungle life. Bryan is a jungle guide and organises treks from 1 day to 10 days with his team. You can stay close or go all the way to Ketambe looking for orangutans, thomas leaf monkeys, hornbills and If you go far tiger prints or elephants. We also offer traditional Karo tribe cooking, jamu and medicin, sharing our knowledge of the jungle and playing guitar together (if you want of course).
A quiet, clean, place with a big garden in Bukit Lawang to explore the jungle and learn about traditional Karo culture.
