Sarawak: Land of the Hornbills
Our Sarawak Trips
Sarawak is the largest state in Malaysia and is home to the old rainforest in the world. Rich in history and culture with over 30 different ethnic groups living together in harmony. This is why Kuching (the state capital) has been given the first ever ‘City of Unity’ award and status.
Sarawak is definitely an adventurer’s dream. It offers some of the largest cave chambers and cave systems in the world. It has the longest longhouse in the world (1 km long!), it has the highest concentration of species per unit area in the world and out of the different species, 19% of mammals, 6% of birds, 20% of snakes and 32% of lizards are endemic to Sarawak!
Whether you’re a solo traveller, an old or young couple, a large family, scientific researcher, a wildlife enthusiast or an anthropologist…there is something for everyone to explore and experience.
What Our Sarawak Adventurers Think:
If you’re looking for a unique experience and getting of the beaten track this is the thing for you. In 4 months of travelling this was definitely one of my highlights. Me and my brother spend 4 days in Sarawak jungle with the help of Adventure Alternative Borneo. Nick did a great job with putting together a perfect itinerary for us.
We stayed at a remote longhouse and in a jungle camp next to a beautiful waterfall. The locals were very friendly and happy and the food they cooked for us was amazing. We spent the days trekking in the jungle and going down the river by boat. We even went trekking to a waterfall that even the locals barely knew existed. As far as we know we were the first tourists there ever, that’s something you don’t get to do everyday! Our guide was also nice and very knowledgeable. An incredible experience!
