It’s a little over a year now since me and my friends have had the experience of a lifetime. From being picked up at the airport with a big smile, to having spend days on the water and roaming through the jungle hearing the most interesting stories, to learning so much about the history of Borneo (even danced little bit of the Bornean’s traditional dance), to having meaningful conversations and the most magical memories made that will never be forgotten. What all of these fun things have in common is Mickey. Mickey is not only enthusiastic and passionate about his job and Borneo but about life. There isn’t a person I would’ve chosen to experience this wonderful trip with other than Mickey because he added the magic to it. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. We will meet again Mickey! - Your Princess of Aruba -

I have been thinking about how I can describe Mickey the best, but I have truly no words. He is the most kind and passionate man I have ever met. He has become a true friend. I am so grateful for having Mickey as my guide and experience his point of view of this trip. Everything was magical and I hope that everyone will experience the same magical time that I had with Mickey and the fantastic crew ! Wish I could do it all over again :)

Mickey is hands down the best guide in Indonesia! Beyond being an exceptional guide, he became a true friend. His enthusiasm, warmth, and fun personality made my trip unforgettable. What really stood out was his deep passion for the rainforest and his dedication to protecting it - it was truly inspiring. On top of this, every detail of the trip was flawlessly organised, and the entire experience ran seamlessly. I can't imagine the journey being the same without him!

Mickey is the best! He loves his job and tells passionately about everything we saw during the tour. He is a cheerful, sweet, and above all, a helpful person. Our tour was an awesome experience and I would recommend it to everyone. We had so much fun and everything was arranged down to the last detail. I hope to come back some day. Greetings from Yara (The Chico’s ;))

Mickey, you are without doubt the most inspiring person I have ever met!

Your passion for your work is truly inspiring and your knowledge in general is mindblowing.

You are a gift to the rainforest and the wildlife. You make people see that part of world from a different angle, making them aware of why preservation and conservation is so important.

I'm so pleased Niels and I had you as a guide on our visit to the Tanjung Puting National Park, you made a very big impression on both of us.

I hope to be back again one day, to enjoy your enthusiasm for the amazing wildlife, and of course your warm and generous hospitality.
