This 5D4N journey brings you deep into the wild heart of Way Kambas National Park. You wonβt just visit a national park; youβll step behind the scenes with rangers, walk through protected zones few travellers ever enter, and witness the raw, everyday work of a ranger patrolling the place they call home, safeguarding species from poachers.
While most wildlife trips only offer surface-level encounters, this one takes you further into patrol routes, research areas, forest edges where elephants migrate, and community-led conservation spaces that are normally off-limits. Youβll learn, explore, and directly contribute to the local community economies and wildlife protectionΒ of Way Kambas simply by being here.
What to Expect
- Access 50% of exclusive, closed-to-the-public sites for a truly authentic conservation experience.
- Join rangers on a 98km river & 3-6km jungle patrol; observe wildlife tracks, learn how they fight poaching, and protect the forest.
- Spend a night deep in the forest, where rangers usually set up camp.
- Listen to real conservation stories, discussion about poaching and how to prevent it, and a question-and-answer session with the ranger.
- Gain rare access to Elephant Jungle Camps closed to the public, where youβll meet patrol elephants and their mahouts.
- Guided by local experts and our Escape Crew, a biologist bachelor or a naturalist guide with 16 years’ experience, your journey will reveal hidden stories of nature.
- Experience a journey shaped by exclusivity, authenticity, and encounters you wonβt find on regular tours.
Things to Know
- By joining the trip, you help protect the area by adding a ranger patrol schedule for security and conservation monitoring.

- Most activities are moderate to challenging, as each day involves 8 – 12 hours spent outdoors in the heat/humid climate.
- Homestays use shared rooms (4 people), bunkbed-style with AC and shared bathrooms; some groups get 2-person rooms.
- Local Escape identification vests are provided to enter restricted areas, and other essential gear such as binoculars, flashlights, tents, sleeping mats, and camping equipment.
- The region is hot and sunny for most of the year; sunscreen, hats, and breathable clothes are essential.
- Mobile signal is generally available except inside deep forest zones, such as during the wildlife safari.
- Avoid bringing suitcases; soft bags like carriers or duffels are much more convenient for this trip.
