Located close to the border of Kalimantan, Batang Ai means “main waters” & refers to the days of tribal wars. You’ll discover that fierce battles & headhunting raids occurred in Batang Ai, yet today the area is peaceful and home to about 30 Iban longhouses & the Aiman Batang Ai Resort & Retreat. The resort sits on the shore of the scenic Batang Ai Lake, amid lush rainforest. You’ll depart from Kuching with stops at the local market in Serian & a pepper farm. After arriving at Batang Ai Lake, you’ll board a boat & cross the lake to the Batang Ai Resort. The next day, board native longboats & venture upstream to an Iban longhouse where you’ll see Ibans perform a traditional war dance in full ceremonial regalia, followed by a typical native lunch.
