Sarawak Youth Adventure 4 Days

Kuching is the capital city of the Malaysian state of Sarawak. It was a country ruled by a family of English Rajs from 1841 to 1941 as opposed to the rest of the region being run as a commercial concern by the British East India Company. Kuching is a great destination as it has:

• National parks and wildlife conservation centres with orang utans, several species of monkey, amphibians, and flora such as the Rafflesia - aka the dead corpse lily. 

• The Fairy Cave areas – with its great cave, abseiling and rock climbing walls.

• It is a ‘user-friendly’ city that is interesting to roam around with its historical architecture, multi-cultural heritage, photogenic cityscapes, museums and more.

• Kuching’s culinary delights are so special to the extent that Anthony Bourdain has repeatedly sang the praise of its’ own variety of Laksa.

But there is more and it is awaiting re-discovery by visitors and travellers. BASE Adventure has designed this programme to meet this objective.  

​

This programme is designed for students ages 13 and older.
