About this activity

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.
