Borneo Eco Tours: Explore Eco-Farming and Orangutan Wildlife with Wacky Jacky’s Textile Retreats

Are you ready for a memorable adventure that combines eco-conscious travel, wildlife exploration, and cultural immersion? At Wacky Jacky’s, we’re thrilled to introduce our Borneo Eco Tours, a retreat like no other. This retreat isn’t your typical textile-focused getaway, it’s an opportunity to step into the heart of Borneo’s lush landscapes, encounter incredible wildlife, and contribute to vital conservation efforts.

Join us for this once-in-a-lifetime journey and discover the magic of Borneo.

Discover the Magic of a Borneo Orangutan Tour

Have you ever dreamed of seeing orangutans in their natural habitat? Our Borneo orangutan tour is the highlight of this retreat, offering you the chance to witness these majestic creatures up close. Over five days, you’ll cruise down the river on a traditional Klotok boat, guided by local experts deeply passionate about the region’s wildlife. Along the way, you’ll visit orangutan feeding stations, spot proboscis monkeys and rhinoceros hornbills, and even take a night trek to experience the jungle’s nocturnal wonders.

This immersive experience is more than just a wildlife tour. It’s a journey into the heart of Kalimantan’s ecosystem. You’ll also visit a local village, learn about the efforts to protect Borneo’s rainforests, and plant trees in a national forest to aid reforestation efforts.

Eco-Friendly Retreats with a Purpose

At Wacky Jacky’s, we believe in creating retreats that leave a positive impact. Our Borneo eco-friendly retreats are designed to support local communities and promote sustainable tourism. During your stay, you’ll spend four nights in an eco-lodge surrounded by nature, enjoying locally sourced meals and learning about eco-farming practices in the area. This retreat is a chance to connect with the land, the people, and the unique wildlife that call Borneo home.

Beyond the environmental focus, this retreat is also about relaxation and rejuvenation. Whether you’re cruising on the river, exploring the backwaters in a longboat, or enjoying a quiet moment at the lodge, you’ll find plenty of time to unwind and soak in the beauty of your surroundings.

A Journey Beyond Borneo

While the heart of this retreat is the Borneo orangutan tour, the adventure doesn’t end there. After exploring Kalimantan, we’ll head back to Surabaya for a two-night stay in a famous heritage hotel. Here, you’ll have time to shop, enjoy a high tea, and delve into the city’s rich history.

Next, we’ll journey down the coast of Java to Banyuwangi, where you can choose between hiking the iconic Mount Ijen for its breathtaking blue fire or relaxing by the pool and exploring the local area. The retreat concludes with a scenic ferry ride back to Bali, where you’ll spend three nights in Candidasa, unwinding by the beach or visiting Wacky Jacky’s Quilt Shop to stock up on your favourite fabrics.
