The trip was amazing, everything was well planned and local escaped really made things easy and enjoyable. I had so much fun, got to try new things, and even made a new friend. I’d definitely join another trip with local escaped in the future

I’ve been following Local Escape for quite a while, and I’m glad to finally travel with you guys.

This is my second trip to Ujung Kulon. My first trip was quite unfortunate (I went with another open trip with poor accommodation and service), so I decided to visit again since I love how we can explore both the sea and trek the jungle here. I always joked that Ujung Kulon is like budget Labuan Bajo–it’s a nice escape not too far from home with beautiful views without breaking the bank.

Local Escape was great. The team shared very detailed information on what to bring, what to know, and reminders even before the trip. The storytelling is enjoyable; I learned a lot about badak Jawa, local superstitions, and how taman nasional operates.

Accommodation is comfortable. Even though I love nature and would love to travel adventurously, I still need a comfortable bed to sleep on and a clean toilet to use. I’m glad we got both with Local Escape.

Besides the special Local Escape itinerary, I truly appreciate your commitment to sustainability and impact on the community. One of the reasons I chose Local Escape is because you guys use reusable lunchboxes and cutlery during the entire trip (except the single-use bottled water during the start and end of the trip hehe) because I’m trying to be responsible with my waste. I often bring home plastic trash to recycle from my travels, but that’s not the most practical. Local Escape offers a solution to my travel worries in terms of waste, and that’s great.

I also believe that travel should positively impact or at least not damage local communities, hence the fact that you guys have programs to build bridges in Ujung Kulon and shelters in Waykambas is admirable.

The guides are helpful and caring, and I’m glad to connect with new friends during this open trip. I also appreciate Local Escape’s personal touch with the postcard+photo at the end of the trip :’)

Thank you, Local Escape. I’ll travel with you guys again. Waykambas is on my wishlist.

The trip is very worth the price. Compared to other trips I heard about from my friends, the service and experience is excellent. The local guides and tour leader are very knowledgeable and friendly, always making sure we had a pleasant experience during the trip. I would definitely choose Local Escape again for my future trips. The preparation for the trip was also very easy since Local Escape’s team provided us with guidelines for the whole trip planning.

Very well thought of. Dan dibuat local dan in house guide nya juara. Story tellingnya juga cakep bgt

Loved that we got to explore less mainstream spots while also supporting SDGs.

the perfect one for trip to sanctuary etc

not typical travel agent, with wonderful experience and fascinating storytelling

Seru bangetttt! I will try another Local Escape trip. Everything went smoothly and on time. It felt like trekking with my friends, even though with strangers.

It was honestly such a fun and smooth trip! Everything felt well-organized but still chill enough to enjoy the moments. I love the storytelling, the knowledge shared by the local guides, Kenny, and Mutiara, also they were super friendly! Would totally recommend.

I could feel the Local Escape team’s passion for nature and wildlife through their ethical approach and genuine support for the local communities. As a result, the trip not only gave me a new experience but also offered fresh insights and a new perspective.

Although this is not my first nature trek trip, this is my first solo/open trip. I am glad that I made the choice to go with Local Escape, my overall experience has been more than satisfactory. What sets this trip apart from my other travel experiences are the guides, Muti, Kenny and Rendy, that were kind enough to share their stories, knowledge and wisdom to us during the trip. If not for them, I would have never known the extensive history & current condition of not only Rhinos in Ujung Kulon, but Ujung Kulon in general. The kindness they extended during the trip is also greatly appreciated, not once ever I feel unsafe in this trip. This is definitely a trip I would never forget, and actually makes me excited to travel with Local Escape again. The friends I made along the way also made the trip even more enjoyable. Thank you for making my first open trip experience memorable and fun!

I truly enjoyed every part of the experience. From the activities to the people, the thoughtful planning, and the meaningful connection with the local community — everything felt intentional and memorable. Thank you for creating such a beautiful journey. I’ll definitely carry this one with me for a long time!

Keren banget manajemen, komunikasi, dan arahannya. Jelas dan nyaman, memperhitungan keseluruhan aspek dari sudut pandang peserta.

a little bit of surprise because most of the participants are women, but it’s a good thing hahaha

Trip ter eco friendly yg pernah saya ikuti. Semuanya keren, menyenangkan, dan mengesankan. Guide, photographer, dan storytellernya helpful dan menambah wawasan ttg badak dan ujung kulon

Enjoyable, Educating, and Terrifying yet Interesting stories

Its amazing

Crew professional, cepat tanggap dan ramah, memberikan informasi yang baik untuk setiap tempat yang dikunjungi, memastikan setiap itinerary berjalan dengan baik, aman, menyenangkan, dan terdokumentasikan dengan baik. Memastikan peserta sampai tepat waktu hingga titik tujuan terakhir. Terima kasih banyak untuk semua crew terutama untuk Mas Kenny, Rendy, dan Nedy. Terima kasih juga untuk post card gift nya.

Very enjoyable and will be an experience I will always remember. All the crew members were very friendly and helpful. They were a beacon that brightened our day and provided the best service to assist us. Thank you, local escape team, you are truly amazing

Sangat recommended! Tripnya gak cuma explorasi tapi juga edukasi. Guide dan Renger helpful dan baik2 semua. Salute ke team local escape!

Felt really safe during the trip

Overall, so good. The itinerary was a real anti-mainstream one. The guides are so helpful and informative, and they know how to make the situation feel less tensioned (I am so grateful for this, especially . as a first-timer masuk hutan). The food was pleasing.

Sangat nyaman dan menyenangkan

Berkesan. Local guide sangat mengenal area yg dikunjungi dan memiliki cara komunikasi yang baik sehingga peserta yg ikut bisa engage dan tertarik mendengar cerita yg dishare, selama mengikuti perjalanan, local guide selalu memastikan peserta aman dan nyaman (peralatan lengkap, p3k lengkap, memberi amenities yg diperlukan peserta, sederhana tp ga terkesan kurang), perjalanan ini sangat cocok untuk peserta yg memang ingin mencari itinerary yg berbeda dari tour biasanya dan memberi experience yg lebih lengkap dan menarik bagi peserta yg mencari tidak hanya wisata tp tantangan dan cerita dari tempat yg dikunjungi, not only two but four thumbs up for local escape team!!

keren, seru, selalu membawa suasana dalam keadaan santai.

friendly guides, all-rounded services

Worth the price

pertama kali trip bareng locale escape dan puas banget sama servicesnya. tour guide dan tim locale escape sangat memperhatikan keselamatan peserta. overall untuk tripnya sangat memuaskan!

Menyenangkan secara keseluruhan karena mendapat pengalaman dan pengetahuan baru.

super fun! dapet pengalaman baru yg bener2 gak bikin kapok dan nagih buat dilakuin berulang2.
