Why You Should Pay the Official Jungle Trek Price
Choosing the official price for your Bukit Lawang jungle trekking tour means you are directly supporting ethical and sustainable tourism in Sumatra.
Unfortunately, some operators advertise cheaper jungle treks – sometimes including accommodation or transport from Medan – but these are illegal under the guide association’s rules. Cheaper offers usually mean that guides, assistants, cooks, and porters receive unfairly low wages, and quality or safety standards are often compromised.
By paying the official price, you help to:
- Guarantee fair salaries and safe working conditions for local guides and porters
- Maintain high quality standards for your trekking experience
- Support the local Bukit Lawang community and families who depend on tourism
- Protect the rainforest ecosystem of Gunung Leuser National Park
- Promote sustainable and responsible travel in North Sumatra
At Discover Sumatra, we are proud to follow the official ITGA-HPI pricing system. We pass on all the money for trekking to the guides, assistants and other people involved, enabling us to pay them one of the highest salaries in Bukit Lawang.
Your choice to book responsibly ensures that tourism in Bukit Lawang stays fair, respectful, and sustainable — for the people, the wildlife, and the rainforest itself. 🌱
