    Junia Guest house is a beautiful location to stay if you want to see some of bukit lawang or explore the jungle. Our host, Tony, made sure everything was arranged perfectly. I highly recommend the jungle trek, this was a great experience and also nice to learn about the jungle and it’s animals. I also recommend doing a tour to see the farmlands around bukit lawang! Great to see the way the locals live and you’ll see places you’ll probably miss otherwise

    We had a great time at the guesthouse. Brian is a great host and is mindful of his community and the environment. He invests in those who have need of it. We arranged our jungletrek through Brian and had a great time spending two nights on the jungle with Brosit and the guys. We lacked nothing and learned a lot about the animals we saw. Great experience!

    The homestay is great. The food, service, room, and overall experience were excellent. We also did the 3 day jungle tour with them, and we have a perfect experience! Our guides Herni and Lane (not sure of the spelling!) Were really good guides, and we have nothing but praise for the overall experience. They really did their best to ensure we had the best experience and we learnt so much. We highly recommend this homestay and junglle trekking tour

    What friendly people and so helpful! The food was delicious. Everything was neatly taken care of. Above expectations for this price! I definitely recommend a stay. I also did the jungle trek, the majority of the proceeds goes to, among other things, the education of children who normally do not have money to go to school. So if you want to do something good for the locals and have a fantastic time, you've definitely come to the right place.
