Group Trip Summary
Steppes Discovery, in exclusive co-operation with the Save Indonesia’s Endangered Species (SIES), offers intrepid travellers, the opportunity to explore Indonesia’s rich wildlife in areas rarely seen by outsiders. From the rainforests in Sumatra where tigers prowl, to fabled “Man of the Forest” in Borneo to the land of dragons in Komodo, this tour is unlike any other. Our unique partnership with SIES allows us to camp in regions not open to conventional tourism, away from the crowds in areas of pristine wilderness. The tour also includes a contribution to SIES to allow them to continue their much-needed work.
On this unforgettable journey you will learn more about conserving the forests and wildlife of this fascinating country by meeting with local communities and exploring majestic rainforests and national parks, looking for some of Indonesia’s most threatened wildlife.
The trip is led by Dr Claire Oelrichs, a veterinary surgeon, conservationist and coordinator of the Ecolodges Indonesia Conservation Fund and the driving force behind SIES. Travelling regularly in Indonesia she works closely with the National Parks and the Guides Training Courses raising their awareness of protecting the wildlife and their habitat in emerging.
