What You'll Do
Explore some fascinating and very different caverns in the gold-mining town of Bau, surrounded by spectacular limestone Karst mountain on this exciting half day trip from Kuching.
Wind Cave is full of bats. Walk along the wooden plank through the dark and eerie tunnels where you can hear the bats hanging from the ceiling of the cave. Search for swiftlet bird nests (some with baby birds) on the cave wall as well as creatures unique to tropical cavern habitat feeding off bat droppings!
A quick drive will take you to the Fairy Cave National Park with an impressive huge chamber halfway up a mountain. Walk up a series of flights of stairs to reach the entrance of the chamber. The approaching chamber will take your breath away on first sighting and it offers spectacular view to both inside and outside the cave. Walk into the deeper chamber filled with “Alien” movie-like formations and maybe crawl into one of the secret chambers for a taste of adventure caving.
Note: Fairy Cave close every Monday, Wind Cave close every Tuesday.

See What Our Guests Are Saying
Well, we have done the Wetlands wildlife morning cruise, the Bako one day tour and the Anah Rais+kayaking daytrip. Very nice places and not hard exercise (european people must be a bit careful with hard trekkings in Borneo, we are not used to so high humidity).
Very well organised activities. Good guides and drivers. They are always on time, kind and skilled. Absolutely not-crowded activities, this was fantastic (maximum 4 people).
Premises of Paradesa are well located, easy to find. Very professional people there too. You can arrange little questions with no problem, so you can make good use of each one of your days in Kuching. We have really enjoyed this place. Visit Sarawak!!
