Arut Riverside Guesthouse

Kalimantan


Pangkalan Bun's most atmospheric backpacker stay consists of nine basic riverside rooms in converted shophouses, some on stilts over the water. Owner Ryan can arrange budget klotok tours to Tanjung Puting National Park as well as fishing and jungle trekking trips. A free boat shuttles guests across the river from the laneway opposite Hotel Abadi.
