Excursão ao Centro de Vida Selvagem Semenggoh e à Vila Cultural de Sarawak em Kuching

The guide Saini is friendly and knowledgeable. The cultural trip allows us to understand the Sarawak culture better and deeper understanding of the tribe daily activities. This day trip combines the cultural village and orangutan observation which is better for travellers with limited number of days in Kuching. We are lucky to see 4 orangutans. Ruby the orangutan who didn’t appear for months came to the feeding platform. We also saw a young orangutan, Sem, who is old enough to venture out on her own away from her mother. It is advisable to bring portable fans and mosquito repellent as you may stand in hot sun for a couple of hours. There is a washroom at the orangutan observation area. You can choose not to take electric buggy ride and walk from entrance to observation area. Some parts are uphill which may be challenging. We opt for electric buggy ride as we have elderly and children with us. The orangutan shown in the picture is Ruby.

Highly recommended attractions when you are at Kuching. At cultural village, I get to taste the tribes traditional sack and dance between the bamboo poles! The show was nice ended with a traditional lunch. We get to taste dishes like umai, terung assam soup etc. The semmengoh was a unforgettable place for us as we get to see 4 orangutans; Alvin the dominant male, a mother with a baby and a young orangutan. It was a lucky day. Thanks to our experienced guide Mr Saini ! we had a wonderful time 👍

We requested Chinese tour guide. Both klook and the tour agency helped us arrange it. He is local people and enthusiastic about their culture. Really nice. In terms of the spots, performance at culture village is nice. Visiting lived aboriginal buildings is impressive. It’s such a brilliant idea that let aboriginal live there, keep performing their customs, and earn money at the same time. It’s super hot. Be sure to bring water with you. Besides, visiting orangutan center is interesting. We are very lucky to meet “old lady” in person. Sometimes, they won’t come out from the forest as they are wild.

Unforgettable Sarawak Cultural Village and Semenggoh Wildlife Centre Tour. yesterday's excursion to Sarawak Cultural Village and Semenggoh Wildlife Centre in Kuching was an absolute delight, and it would not have been as amazing without the hard work and knowledge of our exceptional guide, Rick. From start to finish, this tour was filled with fascinating cultural experiences and wildlife encounters that left a lasting impression on us. First and foremost, let me praise our guide, Rick, for his unparalleled knowledge and passion for the region's culture and wildlife. Throughout the tour, he demonstrated an impressive understanding of the history, traditions, and customs of the diverse Sarawakian communities. His enthusiasm was contagious, and we found ourselves engrossed in his stories and explanations of the various traditional houses in the Cultural Village. Rick's ability to bring the past to life truly enriched our experience, and we felt a deeper connection to the people and heritage of Sarawak. The Sarawak Cultural Village itself was like stepping into a living museum, where we had the opportunity to witness authentic performances and demonstrations by the locals. It was an eye-opening experience to learn about the distinct ways of life and artistic expressions of Sarawak's indigenous groups. Thanks to Rick's engaging commentary, we left the village with a newfound appreciation for the region's cultural diversity. The highlight of the tour was, without a doubt, our visit to the Semenggoh Wildlife Centre. Witnessing orangutans in their natural habitat was a dream come true, and we were incredibly fortunate to spot not just one but two of these magnificent creatures during our visit. Rick's expertise in wildlife and the rainforest ecosystem added another layer of excitement to the encounter. His insights into the behavior and conservation efforts for these endangered primates left us feeling grateful for the opportunity to observe them up close, while also fostering a sense of responsibility to protect their habitat. In addition to Rick's commendable guidance, the tour itself was well-organized and seamless. The transportation was comfortable, and the schedule allowed ample time to explore both locations without feeling rushed. The combination of cultural immersion and wildlife adventure made for a perfect balance, making every moment of the tour truly enjoyable. In conclusion, I cannot recommend the Sarawak Cultural Village and Semenggoh Wildlife Centre Tour enough. It was an enlightening and memorable experience made even better by the hard work and knowledge of our guide, Rick. If you're looking for an opportunity to delve into Sarawak's rich culture, witness incredible wildlife, and be captivated by passionate storytelling, this tour is a must. Thank you, Rick, and the entire team for an unforgettable journey!

Saya sangat gembira. Ia adalah pengalaman yang membuka mata di perkampungan budaya untuk mengetahui tentang sejarah. Ia adalah tempat yang indah. Pusat hidupan liar juga menakjubkan, kami dapat melihat 6 ekor orang utan! Barisan untuk masuk sangat panjang dan sesak kerana cuti tetapi Encik Yusof berjaya membawa kami masuk dengan cepat! Beliau adalah pemandu pelancong yang sangat menyeronokkan dan mesra, sentiasa menghiburkan kami sepanjang lawatan. Beliau sangat berinformasi dan penuh dengan pengetahuan, kami banyak belajar daripadanya! Lawatan dan pemandu pelancong yang sangat disyorkan. Prosesnya mudah dan lancar.

The Cultural Village was very interesting and educational but you’d need to ask the staff questions to find out more about the lifestyle of the people. It could be also that we were there just at opening and the staff were just getting ready. The show is a must and do be punctual as they start right on time. The tour to the Wildlife Centre was short as it was to coincide with the feeding times of the orangutans. You may want to let your guide know if you want more time at the start so he or she may cater time for it.

Our guide, Lucian, was the best. He was warm and very knowledgeable. The tour and experience were great.

interesting to visit their cultural village. Able to spot an orang utan in ther wildlide centre although its not a certain chance whether they will come out of the jungle.

Yusof our guide was very knowledgeable on Sarawak culture, the different ethnic groups and he is well versed in all things Kuching. Speaks excellent English & very friendly. Made the entire tour very informative & entertaining. We enjoyed the cultural village very much, especially the 11.30am show. The orange utans at Semenggoh Wildlife Park were a delight.

導遊很熱心介紹許多背景知識，有任何跟馬來西亞有關的問題也會盡力回答，在文化村看到許多本地住民的生活方式及場域，還有現做的點心（要付費）吃飯前的舞蹈表演非常精彩，一定要看，下午的紅毛猩猩保育區有看到四隻，聽說有人同一天上午去都沒看到，所以看運氣好壞，整天的行程都很熱，要帶防曬
