Tour Itinerary
Telang Usan Travel & Tours is collaborating with several Bidayuh communities in different regions and arranges exciting village experiences to immerse into the daily life of Sarawak's native Land-Dayaks. Visit the remote Bidayuh village in the scenic Bengoh region and experience the warm hospitality of one of Sarawak's indigenous communities. After a boat ride across the Bengoh Reservoir, explore the village and its surrounding farmland, learn about local traditions and daily life, enjoy coffee or tea with a local family, and savour a typical lunch prepared by your hosts. This tour can be combined with a visit to the Semenggoh Nature Reserve to observe semi-wild orangutans during the feeding session (wildlife sightings cannot be guaranteed) or with a guided hike to one of Bengoh's beautiful rainforest waterfalls.
