PROGRAM A :

Ujung  Kulon Wild has a Javan Rhino expedition since 1990 and planned for today, we have dates (the best time is on dry time - June to September))  There are still some spaces available if you are interested. We also have an optional extension for other endemic mammals of the Ujung Kulon including Javan small-toothed palm civet, Javan slow loris, Javan gibbon, Ebony langur, Javan warty pig to go alongside the possible chance of seeing the critically endangered and wonderful Javan rhino. Ujung Kulon Wild is specialises in trips for some of the rarest and most  elusive species and we hope you can join us on our quest for the Javan Rhino.

Tour Itinerary (the best time at Dry Seson) :
This  packages is special interest where you could stay on the jungle for couple day,all the day just walking and hunting the Javan Rhino on the dense jungle..our expert guide will provide what do you need, what you have to bring and where you go

DAY 01 : JAKARTA - UJUNG KULON NATIONAL PARK
* We  have recommended that you arrive in Jakarta the day before the tour is due to start.  we will start to collect all clients (from their hotels) at around 5am..Once we have collected everyone we will head towards the western tip of the island of Java and the forest park of Ujong Kulon National Park. The drive will take around 6 hours or so to get to Taman Jaya (the village on the Ujung Kulon border), from here we will get into  a  boat and cruise along the coast to the park’s gateway. This boat trip will take round 1 hours and we will have lunch on board the boat. arrive at the land at Laban point in the park. We will then hike south towards Karang Ranjang, searching for signs of the rhinos along the way,  we will have the camp close but not too close to where we focus most of  our efforts. Todays hike could be around 3 hours long, on arrival at the camp we will set up and settle in with some dinner. If the light is still good and people still have some energy we can take a little walk around. However we recommend that we are up and ready for the morning canoe along the rivers at dawn (or pre-dawn) so a good nights rest is a good idea tonight.

DAY ;  02-08 : UJUNG KULON NATIONAL PARK
* For  the next 7 full days we will explore the forest as we search for the Javan rhino, we will rise early each morning as we aim to find a rhino as they use the river to bath and browse on the semi aquatic vegetation.  In the past this has been the most fruitful ways to find and see the rhino. So by using up to three of canoes we will silently paddle up and down stretches of the river for a while in the hope that we see one. We will come back to the camp for breakfast and then plan the next course of action, we will probably look to cruise the rivers at dawn and dusk and also have the opportunity to set up hides overlooking some of the wallows that the rhinos like to use. This is an option for anyone wishing to do this and of course we can hike around and try and find fresh evidence of the rhinos as they move through the forest. As mentioned this is just an overview of what is possible and the exact day  by day plan will change and be discussed and dictated by the rhino’s movements.

* Alongside  the rhinos there are many other species in the park, like all tropical forests there are many species of birds, reptiles and amphibians. Mammal  wise there are Javan gibbons and ebony lutungs (both endemic to Java) in the trees, various squirrels around, Javan small-toothed palm civets,  bantengs and even leopards in the park. However the leopards have a near mythical status here and the rhinos are seen a lot more often. It is also worth keeping an eye out in the rivers and sea as there are salt-water crocodiles here and so be careful when near the river banks and keep your hands and feet inside the canoe at all times. We will return to the camp for our meals and of course our tents for each night.  We estimate that hiking per day will be around 2-3 hours, however some days maybe longer (~6 hours) and others much shorter.

DAY 09 : HANDELEUM ISLAND - UJUNG KULON
* Today’s  plan is very flexible, it all depends on where we have been camping, we  may head straight from the camp back to Laban and catch the boat to Handeleum Island. It all depends on how things have gone and what the rhino movements have dictated. If we do go to Handeleum we will take a boat for around 1 hours and on arrival there we could have the chance to  canoe the Cigenter River. This was widely regarded as the best place to  see Javan rhinos for many years. stay overnight at the camp

DAY 10 : UJUNG KULON - JAKARTA
* Star  early morning arround 4am using up to there of canoes we will silently paddle up and down stretches of the river for a while in the hope that we see one than retrurn back to the camp(breakfast), check out han crusing back to the port take for 1.30 hours,rrive at Sumur or than transfer back to Jakarta.End the trip
