The people there are very lovely and friendly . Once we arrived they welcomed us and at night they perform for us as a welcome dance . Not only that they have a big pool , kids will take bath or play around at that pool , it's so lovely to see how the villages lifes.

Having visited a Bidayuh longhouse in Mongkos (just near the border with Indonesia), can recommend the experience as a good way to get a glimpse in the traditional life of Borneo's tribes. Although most longhouses along with their residents are not left behind by modernity (most have satellite dishes and smart phones) you can still observe a life style that is quite different from the bustle of the city. The Bidayuh tribe still make their living from pepper farming and ratan basket weaving. They continue to live in a 200m plus house and raise their children in a communal way. With a good guide it is a great opportunity to learn more about the history and place of these people. Have studied this area quite a bit, happy to answer any questions!
