Watch the fireflies and wildlife that come out after dark on a 4-hour river cruise from Kuching that includes pickup and drop-off at your hotel. Navigate waterways lined with mangrove trees, then try to spot the crocodiles and monkeys at the water’s edge, as fireflies blink and glow in a natural light show.

Kubah National Park is an easy and enjoyable day trip from Kuching. Situated on a small sandstone plateau, this small park boasts crystal clear streams and a host of small waterfalls and bathing pools. Kubah is mostly covered by mixed dipterocarp forest, but it also has one of the widest selections of palms and orchids in Borneo. The varied wildlife includes bearded pig, mouse deer, black hornbill and many species of amphibians and reptiles. However, Kubah’s wildlife tends to stay deep in the forest so it is not really a park for “wildlife encounters”. The appeal of Kubah National Park lies in its rainforest scenery, its waterfalls, streams and bathing pools and the 93 species of palm found within its boundaries.

Devoted to rehabilitating injured, orphaned, or rescued orangutans, the Semenggoh Nature Reserve provides an unparalleled opportunity to watch semi-wild orangutans in action without venturing deep into the forest.

This full-day national park tour includes pickup and drop-off at Kuching city hotels and entrance fees, and it’s the perfect way to explore Borneo’s spectacular wilderness.
