Sarawak Päiväretket

Lähdemme Kuchingin keskustasta klo 7 aamulla, ja noin 30-40 minuutin ajomatkan jälkeen saavumme laiturille, josta pääsee Bako National Parkiin. Laiturilta on 10-15 minuutin venematka Bako National Parkiin. Puistossa voi nähdä villieläimiä, kuten apinoita, villisikoja ja myrkkykäärmeitä, aivan läheltä. Retki alkaa klo 7 aamulla ja päättyy klo 14.00. Koska kävelyä vuoristossa on melko paljon, se voi olla raskasta vanhuksille tai heikkokuntoisille, joten on suositeltavaa levätä riittävästi edellisenä päivänä ennen retkelle osallistumista. Opas on erittäin ammattitaitoinen selityksissään ja antaa riittävästi turvallisuusohjeita villieläinten tarkkailuretken turvallisen etenemisen varmistamiseksi, joten voit osallistua huoletta. Kuchingissa vieraillessasi monet käyvät myös kulttuurikylässä ja Semenggohissa, mutta Kuchingin kohokohta on ehdottomasti Bako National Park. Vaikka hinta ei ole edullisin, se on ehdottomasti kokemisen arvoinen. Lopuksi, muista ottaa mukaan hyönteiskarkotetta, jotta vältyt hyttysten pistoilta.

We had a wonderful experience at Sarawak Cultural Village. Our tour guide, Jacky, was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. He guided us through each of the traditional Sarawak houses, sharing fascinating insights into their history, architecture, and unique cultural heritage. His engaging explanations made the visit both enjoyable and educational. We were warmly welcomed with a traditional cultural dance, which created a wonderful first impression. The stage performances were vibrant, entertaining, and showcased the rich diversity of Sarawak’s ethnic communities with great talent and energy. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kuching - it is an experience not to be missed!

recommended to sign up for the tour. the tour package includes the return transfer from hotel within designated area to site, the admission ticket, and the return buggy ride within the park. the tour guide also gave useful tips.

Again, we had the best experience in Sarawak. Went to the Fairy cave, wind cave which are both amazing. and spotted loooots of bats! Thanks to our amazing tour guide and driver Jacky. he really is the best!! Also a food connoiseur. went to lunch with him and he suggested all the must tries while in Sarawak, even for after the tour he suggested great restaurants and even local places we can go to eat. we had the best time, also our last stop was the Semeggoh wildlife and visited the Orangutans. Jacky knows what time do these apes go out eventhough there a 2 hour period of the feeding time, he knows what exactly the time is perfect to go when they are “all” out. Thank you again Jacky! When you go to Sarawak, it is a must to book tours from this company ooo haa and if you can request for Jacky. You will the best trip of your life as he will take care of you from picking you up to dropping you off! Thanks for the experience! we will always remember this ☺️

Went for a Kuching walking tour, guided by Drika and had a very insightful experience! We walked through all the main heritage trails, and learned about the history of Sarawak, the Brooke family and reign, as well as the overall society and culture of Sarawak. We also stopped for a little lunch at La Tanza Cafe, that served satay and refreshing drinks, to cool down from the hot weather (bring your hats!!). I would recommend this walking tour, and thank you to Drika for being such a knowledgeable and fun tour guide!! 10/10 would recommend Drika as a tour guide as well!

We had a fantastic experience visiting the Sarawak Cultural Village and Semenggoh Wildlife Centre, and our tour guide, Hanafie, made the day truly special. He was engaging, informative, and made sure our whole family had a great time from start to finish. ​The highlight of the day was definitely Semenggoh—we were incredibly lucky to see the orangutans come out, and they hung around for a whole hour! It was a breathtaking sight and an absolute treat to watch them in their natural habitat. ​My kids (ages 12 and 14) thoroughly enjoyed both locations. Between exploring the traditional houses at the Cultural Village and watching the orangutans up close, it was the perfect mix of learning, culture, and nature for their age.

Se oli hyvin järjestetty ja erittäin nautinnollinen kierros. Opas Billie oli melko asiantunteva ja mukautti matkaohjelman sekä ruokamaistelun tarpeisiini. Opin paljon Kuchingista ja sen ruoasta ja minulla oli hauskaa.

Oppaamme Din (kirjoitusasu kyseenalainen) oli erinomainen ja auttoi meitä saamaan parhaan mahdollisen kokemuksen. Hän oli niin asiantunteva ja hyvin valmistautunut jokaiseen retken osa-alueeseen. Näimme suuren valikoiman kasveja ja eläimiä sekä opimme ympäristöstä ja paikallisten ihmisten kulttuurista. Majoitus ja ruoka puistossa eivät ole hienoja, mutta ne ovat mukavia ja riittäviä. Puiston tulisi asentaa hyttysverkot mökkien takaosan kylpyhuonealueelle. Matkamme Bakoon oli Sarawak-kokemuksemme huippuhetki.

Retki oli hyvin järjestetty ja saimme yksityisauton käyttöömme, koska muita ihmisiä ei ollut. Onnistuimme näkemään krokotiileja ja vaikeasti havaittavia iravadi-delfiinejä aamuristeilyllä.
