"Close encounters with Irrawaddy dolphins deep in the pristine rainforest of Kuching".

Sarawak, Malaysia, has a very representative tropical rainforest
When traveling to Kuching, you must go for a walk in the suburbs
Travel through the vast tropical rainforest and see rare wildlife
Start your adventure

The Santuwang River hides a wonderful world
Here you can see the rare Irrawaddy dolphins

The Irrawaddy cruises freely in the Santubong River, its estuary and the shallow coastal areas
We were lucky enough to see it several times this time.

In the mangroves of the Santubong River
There are also wild crocodiles living there
Although these crocodiles are ferocious
Will not actively attack ships

Sit on a local boat
You can experience the life of wild animals up close
If you are lucky, you may even see groups of proboscis monkeys.
This monkey that doesn't eat bananas is an outlier among monkeys
They are different from common monkeys and their living habits are completely different

Proboscis monkeys are very sensitive and shy and will quickly move away once they detect the presence of humans.
Therefore, being able to observe their lives up close is a rare experience and adventure.

At night, you can also chase fireflies under the guidance of local people.
The sunset is also very beautiful~
