w MALAYSIA Save: You’d expect wild landscapes and even wild animals on a jungle adventure, but how about world music? That’s what awaits on Intrepid Travel’s Sarawak Rainforest World Music Festival, which combines indigenous and international music at the three-day party (plus a night’s homestay with one of the performers) with a host of animal-spotting opportunities. The operator’s southeast Asia
destination manager, Andrew Dalton, says: “Sarawak offers incredibly rare treats for nature lovers. There’s the chance to see orangutans at the Semenggoh Sanctuary, spot proboscis monkeys in the wild at Bako National Park and visit one of the world’s largest cave networks to watch the exodus of millions of bats at sunset. The chance to see endemic wildlife among the beautiful tree canopies truly showcases the fascinating biodiversity in Asia.” Book it: The 11-day trip starts at £1,340 land-only, departing Kuching on July 22. The price includes a festival ticket and wildlife activities.
