How to get here?

    • From International Destinations
      If you’re traveling from abroad, you’ll most likely need to connect via Jakarta, Singapore, or Kuala Lumpur. From there, you can take a domestic flight to one of Kalimantan’s airports.
  • By Sea
    • Pelni Ferries: The state-owned Pelni Ferries operate routes connecting Java, Sulawesi, and other parts of Indonesia to Kalimantan.

  • By Land and River
    • Land Crossings: There are border crossings between Malaysian Borneo (Sarawak) and West Kalimantan, such as the Tebedu-Entikong crossing. From these points, you can take local buses or taxis to continue your journey within Kalimantan.
    • River Routes: Some travelers opt for river routes from Sarawak into West Kalimantan, although this is more for those seeking a unique adventure rather than the fastest route.
