Destacados

Take this 3-hour tour to get to know the city of Kuching, which is cut almost in half by the meandering Sarawak River—the city's lifeline. Kuching's skyline is a mix of minarets and domes, ornate temple roofs, church spires, a fortress, towers, and both modern and colonial buildings, all set amid a profusion of greenery against the backdrop of the inky-blue Santubong and Matang Mountains. During this tour, a guide takes you through the city's history, from the era of the White Rajahs to the present day. Select a morning or afternoon departure time when booking.

About Kuching

Kuching, capital of Sarawak on Borneo, is a river city of colonial buildings, Chinese temples and nearby rainforest with orangutans.

Kuching stretches along the Sarawak River in the north-west of Borneo, with a waterfront promenade between old colonial buildings. The Brooke family, the White Rajahs, ruled Sarawak from here for a century, and their legacy survives in Fort Margherita, the Astana across the river and the Old Courthouse. The shophouses of the old Chinese quarter and the Tua Pek Kong temple show the other side of the city's heritage.

Top-ranked sights in Kuching: Kubah National Park, Semenggoh Wildlife Centre, Bako National Park.
