Bako National Park

Embark on a nature-filled adventure to Sarawak's oldest national park, Bako National Park. After a pick-up from your Kuching hotel at 8:00 AM, you will experience the beauty of nature on a land journey to the park, with opportunities for sightings of White-Collared Kingfishers. A 25-minute boat trip along the edge of the South China Sea will take you to Telok Assam, the site of the park's headquarters, where you will register at the park's office and browse the Information Center.

You will then explore the park's 17 well-planned trails, spanning an area of only 2,727 hectares and consisting of 25 types of vegetation that flow into seven ecological systems. The park is home to an abundance of flora and fauna, including long-tailed macaques, bearded wild boars, mudskippers, and fiddler crabs. Your tour guide will assist you in tracing the shy proboscis, and you will have the opportunity to witness the spectacular view of the signature Sea Stack.

After your adventure-filled morning, you will enjoy a delicious lunch at the park before heading back to Kuching. However, if you choose to stay overnight at the park's hostel, you will have better chances of spotting more wildlife such as silver langurs, monitor lizards, flying lemurs, and green pit vipers. A brief night walk might also bless you with a chance of sighting the Malay Civet. You will spend the night at the park's hostel, with basic overnight facilities, before continuing your exploration of the park the next day. Check-out is at 11:00 AM, and you will return to Kuching by the same route.
