Pedal Power Series : NW Discovery
From: USD$47.00
Beautiful Kuching City can be explored on foot on your own in most cases but to really have an up close and unique experience, hop onto a bike with us as Pedal Power is best.
Visit tropical gardens and parks, historical monuments, important landmarks and quaint villages on the fringe of the city with our knowledgeable bike leaders.
A relatively easy ride with some undulating roads and the odd hill, this route takes you through the city and across the river into some green areas with breathtaking lookouts. A simple local lunch or afternoon tea stop will be a delightful respite after all the calories burnt enroute.
