Discover Kuching
per person
Explore the city centre of Kuching with its historical buildings, traditional temples and small hidden alleys.
Listen to your guide relating the unique history of Sarawak, which sounds like right out of a fairy tale book with stories of rich sultanates and oppressive rulers, headhunters and pirates, European adventurers and the “White Rajahs”.
Half-day Tour
1
Walk along the bustling Main Bazaar, Chinatown with its red lanterns, the colourful India Street, as well as the aromatic spice market.
A ride on a ‘sampan’, a traditional river taxi, will bring you across the river to stroll through a Malay village with traditional houses on stilts. You will get to see mosques, churches and temples. It is thanks to your guide’s explanations, that you will slowly realise how multi-faceted Sarawak is, with all its various races, cultures and religions living together peacefully.
Kuching’s Waterfront, an esplanade with little patches of gardens and cafes along the Sarawak river, boasts perfect motifs for photographers. And so do the stunning historical buildings from bygone eras, like the Fort Margherita, the old Court House, the Post Office or the famous Sarawak Museum.
