Kuching by bike, boat & bites – uncover hidden gems the local way
The ultimate half-day adventure to discover Kuching by bike, foot, and boat. Covering 85% of Lonely Planet’s listed sights (and plenty more hidden gems), this cycling tour combines Kuching’s heritage highlights with a peaceful pedal through traditional kampongs (villages). Add a local sampan river crossing and full-on food tastings at a bustling market, and you’ve got yourself a proper local experience.Unlike other Kuching tours that may just stick to the city centre, this one takes you off the beaten path across the Sarawak River, where you’ll explore quiet village roads and wooden bridges with stories around every corner. It’s beginner-friendly and relaxed, so you don’t need to be super fit – just curious, hungry, and ready to see the real Kuching. Perfect for travellers who are short on time but still want to dive deep into local culture, taste authentic Sarawak flavours, and support sustainable tourism. It’s also a brilliant way for families, couples or small groups of friends to spend a morning seeing both the well-known and the totally unexpected sides of this charming city.
