点评:We spent a relaxing, memorable. 2 days, 3 nights in Batu Katak. We went to over-touristed Bukit Lawang first to ensure we saw orangutan and then escaped to sweet, authentic Batu Katak. We found the locals in Bukit Lawang a bit grumpy. (Their town has been overtaken by tourism, so it's to be expected.) Batu Katak was like night and day. - The village is small, beautiful, and sleepy. And the people were so welcoming!
We had Joe as our guide. Highly recommend. WhatsApp #: +62 812-6340-3452. He was happy to tailor an experience just right for us. We had planned a full-day trek in the jungle with him, but I was exhausted from our 2-day trek in Bukit Lawang. Joe pivoted seamlessly! - He took us on a short walk into the forest to see the Amorphophallus titanum flower, then to the weekly rubber market, which was fascinating to watch. We spent time learning about Karonese medicine and then ended the day chatting with the local beekeeper.
We stayed at Jungle River, which is the best location in my opinion. The waterfall was right outside our cabin and my husband came and went to it constantly.
I do recommend stopping for coffee at Orchid Bungalows. When I asked if they had coconut milk, they went out, grabbed a coconut and made some on the spot. The proprietor also makes fantastic cigars. It was a lovely experience chatting with him about his locally-grown tobacco.
I cannot recommend Batu Katak (and Joe!) enough.
翻译:我们度过了一段轻松、难忘的时光。巴都卡塔2天3夜。我们先去了人潮汹涌的Bukit Lawang,以确保我们能看到猩猩,然后逃到甜蜜、正宗的Batu Katak。我们发现武吉拉旺当地人有点脾气暴躁。 (他们的城镇已经被旅游业取代,所以这是可以预料的。) Batu Katak 就像白天和黑夜一样。 - 这个村庄很小,很美丽,而且很昏昏欲睡。人们非常热情!
我们有乔作为我们的向导。强烈推荐。 WhatsApp 号码:+62 812-6340-3452。他很高兴为我们量身定制适合我们的体验。我们本来计划和他一起在丛林中进行一整天的徒步旅行,但我在武吉拉旺的两天徒步旅行已经筋疲力尽了。乔无缝旋转! - 他带我们步行一小段距离进入森林,观赏魔芋花,然后前往每周一次的橡胶市场,观看的过程非常精彩。我们花了一些时间学习卡罗尼斯医学,然后与当地养蜂人聊天结束了这一天。
我们住在Jungle River,这是我认为最好的位置。瀑布就在我们小屋外面,我丈夫经常来来去去。
我确实建议您在 Orchid Bungalows 停下来喝杯咖啡。当我问他们是否有椰奶时,他们出去抓了一个椰子,当场做了一些。店主还制作很棒的雪茄。与他谈论他当地种植的烟草是一次愉快的经历。
我极力推荐 Batu Katak(和 Joe!)。
