After 10 years, we wanted to reminisce our time in Kuching and Antoni did just that for us. From Itinerary planning, to fetching us from the airport, bringing us around on the various days, then sending us off, it was an awesome seamless experience because of him.
Antoni not only brought us to off track places like Serikin and Serian, he also introduced the various places and history to us. But, it wasn't a sight and sound tour alone. He brought us to try many local delicacies, some of which he bought at his own expense.
Am blessed to have met Antoni back in 2011 on our first trip and have never regretted looking for him since. In my opinion, Antoni is the best guide in Sarawak! 👍 He's a gem to CPH.

First and foremost, we would like to express our gratitude and a huge thank you to CPH Travel for making our 5-day school trip to Sarawak a meaningful experience!
A special thank you goes to Ms. Fion who has helped us from the very beginning. Ms. Fion has been extremely accommodating and flexible to our needs, especially since we are travelling with children and teenagers. She has been incredibly helpful and managed to secure a spot at the hotel, even with our last-minute clearance for one of our learners who had visa issues.
The tour guide, Mr. Adam, and our bus driver, Mr. Wilson, were both very welcoming and helpful throughout the 5-day trip. All the briefings on the bus conducted by Mr. Adam were very informative and educational for all of us, as they helped us understand more about Sarawak as a beautiful and lovely state of Malaysia. Mr. Wilson was also super cool with the learners, allowing them to play their favourite jams on the bus while we were travelling.
The food was superbly nice, the stay at the Grand Margherita Hotel was a pleasant experience, and the places we visited were all memorable and brought us closer to nature!
I will definitely recommend CPH Travel to anybody I know who plans to visit Sarawak for sure!

Kim Boon is very knowledgeable about Anah Rais long house and Kuching in general.
We went to Anah Rais on Hari Gawai, which is a major festival for the Bidayuh people. The long house was quite busy with people, because they were preparing their celebration.
Lots of people wearing their traditional costume, which is rare according to Kim Boon.
You can checkout their long houses, costumes, and my favourite is their rice wine, tuak.

Sadly we can only give this tour a 3 as the trip went ahead in spite of a looming thunderstorm, which caused it to be cancelled after everyone was soaking wet.
Malaysian afternoon storms are quite common and there was some rain falling on the trip out from the city to the boat. At our request, CPH travel did offer a repeat trip at no extra charge, but we opted for a partial refund. Its a hard call for the guide to make, but local experience must have suggested that the weather was going to get worse and he should perhaps have called the trip off earlier. The boat is small and narrow with a sun shade at the back half. In good weather this would be fine, but it's no protection against a thunderstorm.

I went on the Santibong Wildlife Cruise with Antoni. We took a boat down the Sarawak River to Wetlands National Park. It was a great excursion! We saw the elusive Iriwaddy dolphins (under a double rainbow!), proboscis monkey bouncing around the treetops at dusk, a saltwater crocodile, a remote fishing village and a tree loaded with shimmering lightning bugs. Best of all, Antoni is a remarkably knowledgeable naturalist with superb English, an engaging story teller with a great sense of humor. So glad I went.

Wonder-filled day! It was a great hike. We saw families of the silver monkey. Further up the trail there were probiscus monkeys in the trees. We saw the beautiful green snake basking in the sun. We took a boat ride to see the sea stacks and got a wonderful treat - pink dolphins swimming in the water. They came so close to our boat. The lunch provided was delicious. I’m a vegan and the had vegetables and rice that was well prepared. Our Guide was Kim. He did an excellent job explaining about the vegetation and trees in the Forrest. Kim was very patient as we asked a lot of questions. I highly recommend this tour.

The best thing about Antoni is he is very knowledgeable and experienced. Everytime he explain the places that we visit he always share his experience there and we can feel the personal touch of these places. Do seek for Antoni from CPH travel agency if you truly wants to feel and understand Sarawak in the eyes of its people.

Great 3d2n tour to Batang Ai. The guide Antoni was great and had a professional approach and a good cook . The local host at the longhouse was friendly and exiting to socialize with. The accommodation was very basic and authentic but they had made it a bit more comfortable than the local apartments in the longhouse. I loved it.
The day trip was amazing and fun.
I booked it trough “Paradesa Borneo” agency - don’t do that. They just forward the booking to CPH and charge something extra for that service (however, Paradesa are great for day trips in Kuching area).

My wife and I did a 1night/2day Iban longhouse tour and our guide, Antoni, made the experience wonderful. I genuinely don't think it would have been as rich of an experience without him, so I highly recommend asking for him if you do such a tour with CPH. He's knowledgeable, passionate about guiding and his work, and goes above and beyond to sweeten your experience.

Honestly I was very sceptical to go for the tour . I am not really an outgoing person. But our tour guide ( Mr Antony ) is extremely good, knowledgeable and intelligent in presenting and conducting the tour . I really had fun and this would not be possible without mr Antony being our tour guide . Thank you and you must definitely go for this.
These are activities list
- sight seeing of mangrove. Such a beauty
- three types of rare monkey which can only be found in Borneo
- crocodile
- dolphins if you are lucky
- fire flies
- eating while watching sunset in middle of the sea

It seem that we have to pay upfront for the tour from CPH. Is it wise for me to do so or perhaps it is better to book the tour when i arrive in kuching

They are a reputable company. If the particular date you want is inflexible then book in advance, otherwise, so so when you get to Kuching.
