We travelled with Trailfinders. The organisation was superb. We had a guide for our 3-day stay called Gandar who was very knowledgeable and thoughtful. A ranger called Ayub was assigned for the Orang Utan trek; frankly he was a genius, we saw eight including one very close encounter. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend any aspect.

The Sangeh Monkey Forest is a little out of the way for most foreign tourists which is truely a shame. This place is just amazing, the tall trees, friendly monkeys, picturesque settings, helpful guides and if your lucky the just married couples having photos. Grab yourself a guide and wander around, the guide will tell you about the forest, the monkeys and answer any questions. They will also be there if the monkeys get to inquisitive. The forest is quite different to the one in Ubud it is much easier to get around if you are less nimble with most if the grounds being flat and paved. Enjoy the tranquility and take your time.
