To explore a country is not only through flights and buses, or other engined vehicles. Sometimes, travellers need to go beyond that and find that strength to explore the world differently. You might be surprised at how much you can get to know a place intimately on a bicycle!
Travelling by bicycle is the greatest way to see the world; just the wind and the open road, with your family or friends – no cellphones on glued to your hand, no maps, walls, or guidebooks. Maybe just an action camera that mounted at the bars?
Get to know the beautiful backyards of Kiulu through a cycling adventure. This half day cycling tour takes you far away from the regular tourist itinerary, offering a truly unique and authentic bicycle tour through the unspoiled breathtaking countryside.
Your tour begins with a safety briefing – the dos and don’ts, basic hand signals, and a short question and answer session with your guides. Your journey will take you across bridges to venture into the rural areas of Kiulu. If you’re lucky, you’ll be able to cycle next to a kerbau (water buffalo), but don’t try to knock them as you’ll lose for sure! The first break is at Tombung Village, where you can witness the daily life of the local community as they welcome you to their native dusun house with light refreshments. There, you will enjoy listening to their stories as they share their local customs, traditional music, and local delicacies. Your journey continues with a visit to the local farm to experience rubber tapping and its tedious process. Your journey ends at a beautiful riverside where you can opt to take a short dip in the river or relax by the banks. After you’re done, lunch is served!
CHARITY… Part of the tour fares are contributed to Tombung Village Charity Fund to bring the standard of living of the village, especially on their children’s education development.
