*Bako National Park is the oldest national park in Sarawak, established in 1957~*
Let me take you to Bako National Park in this post~ =)
So, here the journey starts~ hehehe...
There were altogether 12 of us~
Kuching City to Kampung Bako
From Kuching to Kampung Bako, it took about 40 minutes drive. *It is about 37km from Kuching city*
Do not worry of getting lost... as there are many sign boards around showing the route to the national park~ =)
We reached there at about 9 am~
There is a visitor registration counter at the boat jetty of Kampung Bako...
We registered at the center and pay the entrance fee~
Being students, we only paid RM50 for 12 person...So, it's about RM 4.20 per student~ =)
* I really do not know exactly how much per student...as I heard, they gave us discount~ hehe..
But, I guess it should be RM5 per student~So, remember to bring your student card if you are a student! *
For adults, it's RM 10 per person.  |
| You can see this at the visitor registration counter~ |

Kampung Bako to Bako National Park (Park Headquarter)
Then, we took a boat to the national park~
It's RM 18 per person for 2-way trip. You will need to add another RM7 in order to board the boat at Pandan Kecil Beach. So, it's RM 25 altogether~ =)
* No student price for the boat ride! >.< *
The boat ride was about 15 minutes to Bako National Park.  | ||

After the briefing at the center, we were supposed go to Telok Pandan kecil... It's 2.5km walk~
There will be a beach there~ and we were supposed to board the boat back to Kampung Bako there~
But, the 5 of us took the wrong turn and headed to Telok Paku..huhu... So, we wasted more than 40 minutes and walked for another 1.6km... huhu...
 |
| How on earth we did not see this sign?!!! >.< |

| Heading to jungle trekking...all smiles~ =) |
 |
