Lovely way to see Kuching, our guide Farhah was good fun and knowledgeable, she showed us around the city and explained the history and culture. It gives you an idea of where everything is based and what you would like to see, good to get off the beaten track and see the local side a few mins out of Kuching centre cycling through the villages across the bridge then back by boat. The pace is easy, felt very safe around traffic, you stop for food and drinks along the way. A great way to start your visit!!Great way to see Kuching, both sides of the river.

Great way to see Kuching, both sides of the river. Pace was leisurely, traffic was considerate to us. Several stops including the hidden mosque and cafes to taste the local food (included in the price) crossing over to the other side found us winding our way through sleepy Malay villages, very little traffic and good roads. We did around 16K in all, but well worth the effort. Saw lots of places you could miss driving a car. Guide was brilliant and ensured the pace was right for us Oldies!I was lucky to be the only one to sign up on this day for the tour, so I got to have my guide, Farhah, all to myself. Lucky me! She was incredibly knowledgeable about everything she showed me...she is a true historian and great guide who I highly recommend. Not only was she so knowledgeable, b...
I was lucky to be the only one to sign up on this day for the tour, so I got to have my guide, Farhah, all to myself. Lucky me! She was incredibly knowledgeable about everything she showed me...she is a true historian and great guide who I highly recommend. Not only was she so knowledgeable, but she was really easy to talk to and made me feel very comfortable in asking all of the dozens of questions I kept asking. She was professional, kind, and went out of her way to help me find coconut oil. I will be returning to Kuching in July and will definitely take another tour with this company, and hopefully in Farhah's company!It’s a great escape from busy city life. Thank you to my tour leader Ms Bangsik. It’s nice and knowledgable of you. Great explanation. Good food for breakfast and lunch. Hope can ride again in future. Keep up a good job. 👍👍👍👍👍 Fauziah.

She was very knowledgeable and we learnt a lot about how the local families live as well as visiting places were tourists wouldn't normally go.

See Kuching on foot is the best. Biking is a better alternative than driving or riding in a car around. If you're ready to experience Kuching on two wheels, Paradesa Borneo gives you professional advice on how to go about it.
