Done with the feeding session, we can do a short trekking in the forest, before proceeding to Camp Leakey which will take about 1,5 – 2 hours by boat. After lunch on the boat, you will have a chance to take another short trekking or visit the information center before joining the afternoon feeding session at around 2PM. Then we will cruise down slowly to nypah palm area, where you can see beautiful fireflies during the night, if the weather is good.
