Borneo might not be known for its cities, but Kuching is truly a gem and the perfect place to begin or end your family adventure. Named, the ‘Cat City’ and with references all over to its feline friends, as well as its delicious food, relaxed vibe and a melting pot of cultures, it’s undoubtedly one of the most family-friendly urban areas in Borneo and a place that all the clan are sure to fall in love with.

Your driver will be waiting for you at the airport for your short drive to your centrally located hotel. From here, it’s an easy walk to explore the highlights of this charming city. Why not walk along the lively riverfront, cool off in one of the many cafes or take the kids to try a famous Sarawak Laksa for an authentic experience.

Day 2 – Cycling trip & river cruise

This morning, you’ll learn more about this fascinating city on your guided cycling tour. With little traffic, it’s a very safe journey for all the family as you first head out to explore the traditional Kampungs. Greeted by the friendly locals on the way, you’ll be able to try some more of the delicious local street food and explore the exciting open-market of Kubah Ria. Later, you’ll board a traditional Sampan boat, as you head back over the river to the heart of the city. The rest of the day is free for you all to explore or rest after your adventurous morning.
