Niah Caves - getting there

 

By Bus

Take the no. 33 bus (Miri Transport or Kingswood ) to the Long distance bus terminal about 20mins away or catch a taxi for RM12 - RM15.

Take any bus going towards Bintulu, Sibu or Sarikei and stop at Simpang Ngu junction (this takes 1hr45min). Bus fare at RM10

At Simpang Ngu, there's a supermarket and an open market so you can either grab lunch here or pack some for the journey. From here, take a taxi or private car for RM30 to the park entrance (about 30mins away).

On coming back, it's best to leave a little earlier about 4.00pm so that a taxi can be arranged for you by the ranger to take you out to Simpang Ngu

By Taxi

There are many taxis that can take you to the park for RM120 per way. Try negotiating with them and sometimes it can drop to RM 80 per way.

By private 4WD or Vans

You can catch one of these at the bus stop just across the road from the local bus station (at the tourist information centre). The bus stop is just in front of the football field. Ask around for one that will take you to Niah National Park . Cost is about RM15 to the park entrance. There may be a short wait as the driver usually leaves only if he has 6 passengers for the trip.

If you're thinking of leaving the park by 3.00pm , then you can try making your way to Niah town. Just follow the river, there's 2.5km trail along the river to Batu Niah town. Here, there may be a few private 4WD or vans around to take you back to Miri.
