The Malaysian kampung homestay experience

At Homestay Kampung Belimbing, Sarawak, guests get to experience Bidayuh culture in a traditional longhouse community.

These days, travellers look for different ways to experience the country or place they are visiting, instead of just going for the usual “touristy” stuff.

Such “experential travel”, although not something new, has been growing in popularity. In Malaysia itself, travel itineraries offered by local guides and tour agencies would normally include either a homestay visit or accommodation.
