The pluses for this homestay during my 3 day stay.. - not too far or difficult to get to from the city of Kuching - excellent communication with hosts leading... read more up to arrival so you know exactly what is planned and what is happenning - great hosts, the family is very welcoming and hospitable, and the food is fresh and tastes amazing. They also have some amazing pets that are so friendly, 2 dogs and 3 cats. Also, everyone else you meet in the village is really welcoming and friendly so you don't feel out of place once you're outside the homestay. - Very interesting tours, with very knowledgable guides, and you learn so much you wouldnt from google and youtube. The tours are also quite varied and customisable so something to suit all tastes and energy levels. - A real genuine insight into how life is lived in jungle areas. - Accomodation is clean and for a junle homestay, has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The minuses - Well just one minus really, if you're hoping to encounter or view lots of wildlife, it may not fulfil that wish. So I'd advise to also book a trip to Bako nature reserve during your stay in Sarawak. In some parts you can explore some quite dense primary tree and plant life, but it's quite uncommon now to encounter, or even hear bigger animals like monkeys or flying foxes...

The minuses
- Well just one minus really, if you're hoping to encounter or view lots of wildlife, it may not fulfil that wish. So I'd advise to also book a trip to Bako nature reserve during your stay in Sarawak. In some parts you can explore some quite dense primary tree and plant life, but it's quite uncommon now to encounter, or even hear bigger animals like monkeys or flying foxes which were very common in the area around 20 years ago. This is of course part of a bigger problem being played out around the world. You may see some bird species but there's plenty of interesting insects if you like that (luckily not in the homestay, but the jungle areas!) More

  To visit Saloma Village means to enter the heart of hills kampung life of Sarawak. No touristic fakes or artificial reproductions. You stay with the family, in the family house... read more and eat the local (delicious) food. The place is simply beautiful and clean, all made of wood and totally surrounded by nature. Saloma and her colleagues are awesome guides who explain you the local flora, fauna and traditions with mastery. This is a unique experience not to be missed!!!
Thank you Saloma for letting us love Sarawak and the tribes living on its mountains!!!!!!

  We ended our 8 day adventure in Borneo with Saloma. She and her family welcomed us into her home and gave us an amazing and authentic experience. Food... read more and accommodations couldn’t have been better and were true to the culture. She took us to her...More

  I did the 3D2N tour with Gregory, Saloma's brother. We visited the local village, the family's rice farm, went on night-walks and trekked to a couple of waterfalls. Gregory was... read more a great guide and was able to explain village life and Bidayuh customs in great depth and detail. Saloma's family were also very hospitable and lovely and served up some truly excellent food.

The accommodation is basic but I think that adds to the fun and their house is spotlessly clean. Thanks so much Saloma, Gregory and family for a very relaxing weekend spent in your home!
