Experience this unique ecosystem and, with luck, see the dolphins too on this small-group experience with 2-way transfers from your Kuching city hotel.

Excellent trip even if we didn’t see dolphins. Lots of crocodiles and proboscis monkeys and bird life. Adam was very knowledgeable and captain tried hard to find wildlife
