I don’t know if it’s unbelievable good or unbelievable bad from the title.

Welcome, fellow travelers. I'll be your tour guide.
They'll be using mosquito spirals, they're really effective.
Might want to get a mosquito net.
That's the least of their worries! They might want to get an orangutan net! They can come right in. That's an orangutan bed if they wanted it, not their bed.
Do orangutans normally board waterborne vessels?
They're notoriously fast moving and aggressive

Actually provided on board. Ive been to this 3 days 2 night tour. My real highlight was the firefly + star viewing
That's not a bed. That's a buffet table for mosquitos.
Shows how much you get out of the United States there’s no way that isn’t covered with mosquito netting
But... There's none in the video.
You don't put them on during day.
And an open invitation to be robbed, kidnapped or worse
I don't think this is the United States. So they should be save.
I couldn’t find any locations on Borneo on the list, but KL has a safety index of 39.5 on Numbeo, and Jakarta is 47.4 (higher is safer).
Some US cities for comparison:
NY, NY: 49.3
LA, CA: 46.2
Houston, TX: 36.4
Baltimore, MD: 26.9
So uhhh yeah.
Do the orangatans get to watch you . . you know?
Sure hope not. Seeing sapiens goin at it, the orangutans might become erectus.
100% humidity + bugs + windy. It's a no from me.
Also the absolute lack of privacy. It's like having a Facebook account.
I can smell the mildew from here.
Mildew is happening in enclosed spaces. It's not going to be the same kinda problem here
There's an entire ecology between that carpet and the mattress.

No offense intended.
This is the fucking dream. Would need a mosquito net, obviously, but otherwise this sounds absolutely amazing.
Does anyone have a link to this cruise?
This is the company we went with. The conditions were a bit basic, but the food was awesome and the river was one of the best experiences in my life. https://www.orangutanapplause.com/
How much does a trip like this cost?
Here's the website. We did a 2 night tour. 2,000,000 IDR per person. I don't know what country you're from, but it was $550 Canadian dollars per person. https://www.orangutanapplause.com/
This'll need bottles of anti-bug lotion and protective clothing at the very least, and then night comes you'll have to set up mosquito netting besides electric zappers.
