Overview

Depart from your hotel for Batang Ai Iban Longhouse and start an exciting adventure through the rural landscapes of Sarawak. Travel by van through pepper plantations, rice farms, and crowded markets, sampling local cuisine along the way. Board a traditional longboat at Batang Ai Jetty and cruise through the lush jungle to the Nanga Ukom Longhouse, where the Iban tribe's warm hospitality awaits. Spend the evening on the common verandah, performing cultural traditions and tasting local rice wine. On day two, wake up to nature's music and have a modest breakfast before venturing out into the bush. Trek along gorgeous paths, experience unique flora and fauna, and engage in activities such as fishing and foraging for a picnic lunch.
