A. Rahai`i Pangun A traditional
rungkan has been cleverly remodelled into a comfortable 5 cabin, 3 bathroom cruise vessel which departs regularly on journeys along the Kahayan and Rungan Rivers in Central Kalimantan. Named the Rahai`i Pangun, meaning big development in the local Dayak language, she is pioneering eco tourism here.
At 23m in length and 6m across, with 5 cabins below deck,and large viewing decks above, she plies the strong flowing waters at a graceful rate of 8 Knots. Passing serenely along the reflected jungle river banks, she makes her way past orangutan release islands and small communities. Guests relax on sofas as the timeless scenery slips by. Meals are made freshly on board, and are a fusion of local Dayak, Indonesian and Thai food. The emphasis is on taste, freshness and variety. Its a gourmet experience, according to many of our guests. Getting here is an easy hop of just over an hour from the international airport in Jakarta and after a short transfer to the boat, you can enjoy the tranquil scenes in this image
