Mulu Caves (GPS: 3.95, 114.7833 approximate) are the most famous cave system in Sarawak. They are one of the main reasons for visiting Gunung Mulu National Park. There are a number of caves which are open to the public. They are collectively known as the Show Caves, and I am listing them below for your convenience. Some of the caves, including the Sarawak Chamber, are not open to visitors because they are too inaccessible and dangerous.

If you are the adventurous type looking for something more than just a walk in the park, or the aforementioned caves, then you should contact tour operators in Miri or Kuching and ask for caving expeditions. Even the Sarawak Chamber can be visited, if you are prepared to cough out RM500 for the opportunity, and willing to spend 10-15 hours in utter darkness.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
