Wrejang river A trip up Sarawak's longest river normally starts from Sibu to Kapit passing through the riverine settlements of Kanowit and Song. The region is mainly occupied by the Ibans. One hour up from Kapit is the tumultuous Pelagus Rapids. After the rapids is Orang Ulau territory. Travellers can conclude their journey at Belaga where the nomadic Penan often come to trade.

River safaris Rivers are a way of life in Sarawak and in many areas provide the only means of travel. The rainforest encroaching on the rivers edge and many tribal longhouses along the way make journeys down these rivers a unique experience.
