I so wish I could do this!
If anyone goes, please post pics, for those of us living vicariously through traveling fruit hunters!

Finally, good to see this Maryoto!
The image is amazing!

Would it be possible to start from Balikpapan??
There are direct flights from Denpassar to Balikpapan, and direct flights from Cairns to Denpassar.
So easy for Far North Queenslanders to get to balikpapan.

Daintree, If I go, for sure will try and share some :D

Do you have any estimated price per day including transport for the day??

If going through Denpasar can you bring something rare and nice from Australia?

I can trade for durian scions. I have two rare Indonesian varieties: "Super Copper". It's copper color and better than Black Thorn apparently. They are in the same category due to the same color and similar taste. Also have durian Cumasi (strong fermented alcoholic taste ) , sold for $25 kg per kilo, which is extremely expensive in Indonesia considering most durians cost $1 per kilo.
Also have durian Nenek, very possibly the only tree in entire Bali. I brought it from Central Java. Lindsey described this durian: "One of the best durians that you may ever find in all of your years of durian hunting"

PS. You may need to fly to Banjarmasin, also from Denpasar. I think that's closer to Maryoto.

Would be too far if you fly from Denpasar.
You need to fly to Banjarmasin.

Hey DurianL,
Sounds like a good idea, I’ll let you know.


Ok, that’s 500km from Balikpapan.


Maryoto, can you give a price estimate?
And how many persons max per tour?

Hi mate,

No max persons in a tour, if the persons not enough with one car then we can rent another car.
I'll give you the details about the tours including prices etc. in a document if you can chat me through my WatsApp number +62 812 2688 1182.

Would love to see pictures and a report of your experience.  I was very close to visiting Borneo-Kalimantan over the holidays this year, but couldn’t fit it in.  Always next year.

This is pretty cool. Will you be doing these tours again in the future?
