Sarawak Longhouses bezoeken

Goed om te weten

Why go

Visiting Sarawak longhouses offers a chance to immerse in indigenous culture, experience traditional customs, and learn about the unique heritage of the local communities.

What to do or see here

Meet Iban (headhunters) or Bidayuh (farmers) at their longhouses! Learn their traditions – go on a day trip for a taste, or stay overnight for a deeper dive.

Best Time to Go

Always a good time! But if you want less bustle, steer clear of summer crowds (June - August).

Who is it for?

It's for anyone curious about disappearing traditions. It's suitable for all ages, though note that some trips may involve light hikes/river boats.

Top Tips

For comfort and convenience, choose a Bidayuh longhouse day trip (they're nearer Kuching). Iban longhouses involve an overnight stay with basic amenities (hole-in-ground toilets).
