The short vote ride to the park was very enjoyable. We walked around the beach a little bit and saw very unique rock structures and noticed a few wild bearded pigs walking around. Within the park, we saw a number of different animals like snakes and monitor lizards, I was not fortunate enough to see the proboscis monkey but I believe I will return as I have a few more days here sunblock and mosquito repellent are a must and be prepared for rain which comes and goes there are a number of cool hiking trails and the forest itself is really beautiful with many different trees, some being very unique in that they are covered in spikes. My tour came with lunch, which is a the face style and was pretty good. I'm quite picky and found plenty to enjoy.

This was a nice relaxing sunset cruise. The food provided was good and the staff were attentive. We booked at our hotel who didn't tell us that you need to have your passport no. This is needed for insurance. Fortunately they took my driving licience no as proof .

An unforgettable experience! The reserve is home to semi-wild orangutans, and seeing them in their natural habitat was truly incredible. I was lucky to witness a few orangutans swinging through the trees and coming down for feeding—such a rare and special sight! The environment is well-preserved, with lush greenery and a peaceful atmosphere. (P.S. Do note that sightings are not guaranteed, as the orangutans roam freely, but that’s part of what makes the experience so authentic. Arriving early during feeding times increases your chances.) Overall, a and anyone looking to see these amazing creatures up close while supporting conservation efforts!

Fantastic experience , although still very sad to see the beach area either washed up rubbish including gas canisters!

We booked a guided snorkelling tour with Borneo Dream as I had read great reviews. They were easy to deal with and communication was prompt. Our group was very small, just my family of 3 plus 1 other. Our guide, Bas, was really friendly and knowledgeable. Without him we would have missed so much! We saw turtles, sharks and a lionfish among others. He knew the types of all the fish we saw. We dived where it was quiet, with no other boats around which I thought was great. Visibility was pretty good on our tour and at times it felt like I was in a giant fish tank. We had a leisurely lunch on an island and all 3 dives were not rushed and plenty of time. It was truly an amazing experience for me.

I had paid for a driver to take me to the Fairy caves and Wind Caves (highly recommend) I asked him if it was worth me coming here due to it being fruiting season and he said sure let's try. Turned up for the afternoon feeding time, in torrential rain, and was blessed with the appearance of 4 orangutans! All the staff are really friendly, it was a great experience!

Aloha everyone, You can take red bus 1 in near electric house to bako national park for 1 myr. And one you arrive at the jetty, it's 100 myr one way or 200 myr roundtrip to the park. If u meet 3 other travelers, then the 100myr is divided into 4 or 25 myr per person. Going back can be tricky since all members have leave at the same time. You don't need a guide, all trails are clearly marked. Ironically, we only saw pigs, monkeys- black and probiscis near the visitor center. If you can, spend the night since animals come out early mornings and evenings. For Semenggoh Wildlife Centre, take bus 103. Download Kuching metro to track bus. Finally, make sure you visit the tourism visitor center. They will provide you with detailed instructions.

In short - one of the best outdoor activities/ holiday attractions I have been on! Loved the whole trip and staff ( just make sure you take some cash with as there are some charges on the islands and they don’t accept cards ) but other than that it was an amazing trip and would go again ❤️ Highly recommended 👍🏻

Why it is magical? It feels like in the LOTR movie 😁. We were hiking up Mount Irau via mossy forest. Recommended. But pls check out the weather. Make sure no rain in a week

I came to Kuching expressly to see this Orangutan Centre and was not disappointed. I booked through "Ooo Haa Adventure Tours" and the cost was 125RM. Collected from Ranee Hotel (this was close to where I was actually staying) in a minivan with 6 other travelers. Takes minimum of about 45 minutes to get there and the guide arranges your entry ticket and a ride on a motor train to get to the feeding site. After a brief introductory talk by a ranger the food is laid out on a feeding platform, and you wait in anticipation. We saw 5 orangutans (very large male, a smaller male, a juvenile male and a mother and baby - OMG - so excited and privileged. Apparently, it is sometimes very "hit and mis" as to whether the animals indulge us with their presence and the people who came for the morning feeding session only saw 2 orangutans (but two is infinitely preferable to none). No complaints about anything - I loved the experience and was thankful to/for the Ooo Haa Adventure Tour.

Fantastic experience. Communication was Good. Our Driver was amazing. He told us so much information about Semenggoh and Kuching. We saw two Orangutans, they came so close to us. Definitely worth the money

It is worth visiting. Need to check the time of feeding beforehand. We made a trip and reached there about 11 am unfortunately we are not allowed to enter. We can only enter at noon 2pm.

Fantastic jungle. But the trails Were over crowded and our tour group of 21 meant it was very hard to hear anything from the guide. Guide shared the absolute minimum information so I would not say enriching visit. Good if you want to look but not if you want to learn anything. There is an issue of plastic garbage everywhere, at low tide you can see the plastic caught up in the vegetation, lots around the buildings, and even watched the wild pigs eating it out front of the cafeteria. I wish I brought a bag to collect garbage as i feel tourists should contribute to the solution. Driver was good and company easy to communicate with. Lunch was satisfying.

The orangutan park was great however the bus picked us up late then we drove around Kuching picking up other visitors for another hour. We arrived gone 230 when the slot was 2-4. Much cheaper and efficient to get a Grab or taxi and pay 35RM for entry yourself. We were an hour away which was quite far but wouldn't have been as bad if we hadn't had to drive around Kuching.

Just got back from an overnight stay.Alex our guide was amazing, very knowledgeable and considerate. Did some great short walks to enjoy probiscus , and other monkeys, insects, snakes, and really interesting plants. Would highly recommend
