ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE: SARAWAK

By plane It’s easy enough to fly into Kuching, Miri, Bintulu or Sibu from the Peninsula, and there are also decent connections with Sabah, Brunei and Singapore; Malaysia Airlines, AirAsia, Firefly, MASwings and SilkAir provide a comprehensive service between them. There are also flights from Pontianak in Indonesian Kalimantan to Kuching, operated by AirAsia. Note that Sarawak has its own immigration controls, so you will be stamped in and out even if flying between here and the other states of Malaysia.

By boat There’s a boat from Labuan island, off the Sabah coast, to Lawas.

By bus A handful of buses connect Bandar Seri Begawan and Miri, and Kota Kinabalu and Miri via Lawas. The only official border crossing between Kalimantan and Sarawak is at Entikong/Tebedu (daily, roughly 6am–6pm), 100km south of Kuching by road; it’s used by frequent buses plying between Pontianak and Kuching and all the way to Miri. However, there may be another once the latest section of the Pan-Borneo Highway is completed to Telak Melano, on the Indonesian border near Sematan, in 2019.
