From previous OFI tour participants:
"Having done wildlife and eco-tours on all seven continents, I can say
without hesitation that this trip surpasses anything I've done before. The
combination of the time spent with Dr Galdikas, the extensive up-close contact
with those amazing orangutans, the fascinating environments of Kalimantan
and the insights into Indonesian culture made this a truly unique and thoroughly
delightful experience."
Stewart H., New York
"Thank you so very, very much for the most wonderful animal experience
of my life to date. It was beyond anything I could have imagined."
Barbara A., Connecticut
"Our trip to Borneo was the best trip Brian and I ever had together. We
hope to go back some day. It was a lovely trip and it was so generous of Dr
Birute to give so much of her time to us. You did a great job!"
Brian and Helen S. San Francisco, CA
