When you are considering to visit Mulu National Park, a UNESCO Heritage site, 3 days 2 night package is the most suitable where you get to see everything, well, almost everything, minus the Pinnacles which needs a longer stay.

The 3D2N Mulu Tour package allows you to visit the 4 showcaves, ie. Deer Cave, Lang Cave, Wind Cave and Clearwater Cave, and even see the millions of bats coming out from the cave chamber.

Mulu Park is dominated by Gunung Mulu, a 2,377 m-high sandstone pinnacle. At least 295 km of explored caves provide a spectacular sight and are home to millions of cave swiftlets and bats. The Sarawak Chamber, 600 m by 415 m and 80 m high, is the largest known cave chamber in the world.

 

Deer Cave is one of the world's biggest cave passages. The cave is over 2 km in length, its entrance reaches 122m in height and 90m in width. The cave also has a landscape that looks like a moon. From a certain point of view, you get to see President Lincoln's profile.

   

Deer Cave

 

Lang's Cave has wonderful limestone shawls, stalagmites and stalactites. Bats are easier to spot in this smaller cave and you will be very close to the shimmering webs of thread worm larvae, another miniscule wonder of Mulu caves.

After you explore the caves, you can go to the bat's observatory to see the bats flying in and out of the caves' entrance in the late evening.

Wind Cave is named for the cool breezes blowing through it, with several chambers, including the cathedral-like King's Chamber, filled with dreamlike forests of stalagmites and columns. There's a sweaty 200-step climb up to Clearwater Cave and the subterranean river there.

   

Wind Cave

 

Clearwater Cave is a short boat ride away, Clearwater cave is 10th largest cave in the world and the largest in Mulu park. The Clearwater name came from the river which is inside the cave and just before you enter the cave you will see the water so clear and ready for you to take a dip after your cave visit. You will then have a picnic lunch there after the cave visit.
