Public Transport-Kuching City.

Kuching is considered a non-active city at night, therefore public transportion after 7 pm may be limited to certain locations within Kuching or outside. Taxis are available 24 hours but also limited to those who used to travel at night and have a place to book for oncall taxi or rent a car at reasonable rate. Since all tourist spots in Kuching area is located quite far from one to another, therefore rent a car for convenience, you'll be able to visit more places. Unlike Kuala Lumpur City, Kuching serves without Train, no LRT, no commuter except for Bus/Water taxis (Sampan).

If  bus is your mode of transport in Kuching City ..first you need to study the bus route and make sure you know where you are going.

To be honest to visitors...While in Kuching City don't expect nice,cosy,air-condition bus station ..

My experience..If you want to go to Semenggok Wildlife Centre to meet Ritchie and family the Urang Utan.Go early in the morning take bus number K6.Don't take on noon e.g 13:30pm bus from Kuching because you might miss the return bus you go at noon returning is difficult .Go at 07:00am and are just in time to see Ritchie and friends 'The Urang Utan' feeding time that is at 09:00 am everyday.Spend few hours there and return by bus at noon is easier, but not after 04:00pm it might be difficult.

** Ritchie is the oldest urang utan at the wildlife centre in Semenggok.

Airport & Airline Services

Anything to purchase ........ chicken or beef......teh tarik,roticanai and nasilemak on sale onboard now.For safety reason !!#$%^&**&^No outside food please!!!!!!.
Some airline you have to pay for this.....just hope next time they don't impose toilet fee in the plane.


Back in the 70's,80's and 90's taking the plane was a special event where the passengers were treated like kings from the moment they entered the departure aiport to the moment they left the arrival destination.
For instance those day not many people are afford to fly.But now everyone can fly(airasia tagline).So thing have change in the airlines business and not everyone agrees it's for the better.To-day online booking and self check-in(web check-in) for that matter, those who are access to internet and with credit card this system are good for them anyway......
I think to-day airlines or airport staff are less customer services or courtesy..why ...as you talk to machine most of the time.The welcome ,Thank You,Have a pleasant flight greeting, are seldom use to-day or even smile from the customer services staff.
Just try our budget airline what you hear is just "Anything to purchase"..Talking about budget airline the boss say the first airline to sell "roti canai" and "Nasi padang".I hope this will be not the most expensive roti canai and nasi padang in Malaysia.
The good news of airline today is Internet surf and phone call in the air would no longer be a dream.
By the way no big deal here it's your choice to fly ...to go cheap or whatever that suit your budget.
