The Iban people

The arrival of the Europeans and the subsequent colonization of the island put an end to the Iban people’s main hunt. Instead, today they welcome tourists with tribal dancing and home-brewed rice wine.

Both in the air and on land it is full of life. It’s not unlikely that a wild boar whizzes by, or that a heap of colorful butterflies flies over your head. Experience the park after dark with Tourist Travel.
