- AStephanie Campbell· December 6th, 2024Ibing although young did a really good job of helping us all gel together and motivating us all to participate in activities which were new and outside of our comfort zone. His command of English was brilliant. He was caring towards me and very respectful and tried his best to interpret my dietary requirements to his colleagues. Ibing needs to build on his confidence and project his voice so all can hear him when he informs the group about planed activities and plans for each day as myself and some of the group could not hear if sitting at the other end of the table. Ibing was very proud of his country wanting to show us his culture, traditions and country. I loved the fact that he organised for us to attend his friend’s wedding, the best food I had during my time in Sumatra was at this wedding. (And there was no chips in sight). Ibing was able to communicate well with all people of all ages and cultures which shows a degree of emotional intelligence which is crucial when dealing with people. Ibing needs to be able to be truthful when he doesn’t know the answers to questions about his culture which he doesn’t know. No one knows everything and the guests did not expect him to know everything but to ask questions of the hosts and local people and give answers later. I have high regard for Ibing, Robbie and Del for the kindness, help, knowledge and support during our tour of Sumatra During our tour it would have been beneficial if Ibing had the authority to make important impromptu decisions to support and resolve problems guests encounter. When he was trying to sort out and resolve problems at Ricky’s beach house, management did not provide a timely and appropriate response, which resulted in guests having to pay for another accommodation and pay taxi fees at late notice. I feel that Ibing if he had the authority would have made appropriate decisions in the best interest of his guests. What would improve his development would be to train in nutrition and allergies so that people like myself have meals other than chips and bananas. They was so much that could be done with the food but was limited due to lack of imagination and understanding. I think that’s Tru Travels should invest in leadership training for Ibing, Robbie and Del to shape them as people to understand themselves and others and give them a wide world view. I see great qualities in Ibing and I hope Tru Travels gives him the opportunity to excel his natural abilities and learn and develop new skills to put him on the right path to gaining his aspirations and ambitions.Show moreTrip date: October 2024Review collected by TruTravels

- AAmy Lloyd· December 6th, 2024The tour was a complete adventure from start to finish. Not for the faint hearted, be prepared for a lot of walking and mud! Ibing was a wonderful guide - always smiling, friendly and on hand to answer questions, he treated us like his family. Having done tours with various companies this was by far the most challenging and off the beaten track - you’ll certainly get an authentic experience of what it’s like to live in Sumatra but be warned that this includes extremely basic accommodation, cold showers and intense trekking almost every day (the jungle walk is amazing but the easiest walk of the lot!). You’ll see amazing wildlife and some super cool locations with no other tourists, but it is a lot so be mentally prepared for a challenge.Show moreTrip date: October 2024Review collected by TruTravels

Everything from the people to the animals we got to see in the rainforest was a solid /. Ibing, our guide made this whole trip even more fun and enjoyable. By far the best tour I’ve ever been on.
