A lovely day in a Bidayuh village with waterfall trek, yummy and warm locals
This is perfect if you want a taste of real Borneo in just one day — with local people, jungle and village life all in one.Saloma makes everything feel easy and welcoming. She’ll take you to her village, introduce you to the Bidayuh community, and bring you on a short jungle trek to a waterfall where you can swim and just slow down. Along the way, you’ll hear stories, meet locals, and even visit the village school.The food is a highlight — simple, home-cooked Bidayuh dishes made from ingredients grown or foraged nearby. And what many guests remember most is how warm and personal it feels, even if you’re just there for the day.Most travellers say they wish they had stayed longer — so if you have the time, the 2D1N or 3D2N stay is even better.What to ExpectReturn transport from Kuching cityVisit a Bidayuh longhouse and villageShort jungle trek to a waterfallSwim in a natural poolEnjoy home-cooked Bidayuh lunchLearn about local traditions and daily lifeVisit a local schoolMeet friendly locals along the way
