Excursão de um dia ao Parque Nacional Gunung Gading em Sarawak

We were picked up at our hotel right on time by the very friendly guide Mas Daud and a driver (didn’t catch his name). The drive to Gunung Gading National Park took about 1.5 hours. We were greeted at the Park by Antonia, a freelance park guide. You can tell Antonia is passionate about her job and equally passionate about all the plants in the forest. We were regaled with information about the various plants and flowers we saw off the trail. And most important of all, we saw a fully bloomed Rafflesia!! It appears Antonia keeps track of all the Rafflesia buds and has perfect knowledge of the probability when these very elusive and beautiful flowers will bloom. She was able to point out numerous other Rafflesia buds which we wouldn’t have spotted at all. Be sure to request for the very friendly and very knowledgeable Antonia if you fancy catching sight of the beautiful Rafflesia when you are visiting the Gunung Gading National Park.

The driver (Mas Daud) shared many things with us along the way down. subsequently, a local park ranger guided us through the main trail to see various stages of rafflesias. we also too a swim in the waterfall #1 before having lunch in a local eatery and heading back over the river via a vehicle ferry.

Excellent guide assigned to us, which makes my son's and my experiences in nature park memorable. A shout out to Mr Mas who shared generously with us and ensure that my son and I ( city folks) are well taken care of. i strongly recommend this day tour.

這個行程因為離古晉比較遠，所以有參與過的人不多，一開始我們也是有點擔心。不過我們遇到好嚮導 Mr. Mas, 一路行程相當順暢。上午先到達加汀山，由園區內嚮導Antonia帶我們一家作大王花的介紹，雖然沒有看到盛開的大王花，這個可遇不可求，也了解園區保護大王花的辛苦，不過還是有看到開花前的花苞及變黑凋謝的殘骸，再加上Antonia的介紹，整體旅行相當知性。結束大王花的導覽，再由Mas帶我們繼續向上健行到瀑布區玩水，孩子們相當開心。午餐則是山腳下的Food court，由於午餐是內含的，我們點了剛好的食物量，Mas會幫我們買單。結束後則是去Siar beach沙灘玩水，雖然沖洗間有蚊蟲較為髒亂，但天氣好，風平浪靜，很適合午後家庭在海邊玩水。Mas並沒有催促我們要幾點回去，不過我們自己還是抓約三點前離開，免得遇到午後雷陣雨，當然也可以在五點前回到古晉讓Mas早點下班。

Our driver Mr Yusuf was very friendly and told many stories gave us lots of infos during our trip on local culture etc. Then Antonia at the park was outsanding, she spoted many interesting insects etc, we managed to see 3 of the life cycle stages from the Rafflesia including a bud about ready to bloom so great experience.

Our tour guide for the park Antonia was extremely knowledgeable and did a thorough tour for our group of 5! Mr Foo and Abang Mas were great with their tour of the market an the rest of the tour!

雨のシーズンでしたが、ジャングルの深くまで行きラフレシアを探すのは冒険っぽく楽しいです。ガイドさんも丁寧に案内してくださり、予定には無い場所にも寄ってくれて満足出来ました。次回は乾季に行きたいと思います。

相當值得的一趟行程！看到了許多野生動物！ 也看到了大王花！ 唯一扣了一點分數的是，當地接洽旅行社記錯日期，當天司機遲遲沒有出現，還是我們打了越洋電話到旅行社對方才發現。還好對方很有誠意地解決了問題。

The tour operator sent text messages via WhatsApp one day before the tour to detail the pickup information, including the driver's number and vehicle plate. The driver/guide, Mr. Mas Daud, is a kindly helpful gentleman. He was always ready to answer my questions and offer alternative plans. On the way back, he suggested not go to the beach but stop over at Matang Wildlife Centre due to the rainfall. I am generally satisfied with the tour agency and its staff. I would like to recommend Ooo Haa Adventure due to its professionalism of guide and consideration for customers.
