RWMF Reminder
Friday, January 12, 2007
RWMF or Rainforest World Music Fest will be held on the 13th-15th July 2007 in Kuching, Sarawak. This year will mark their 10th anniversary and tons of spectacular performances have been promised. A recent check on their official website shows that there are no signs of the 2007 events yet. However, quite a number of travel agencies have taken to putting up special packages for the event on their website already. They are certainly not going to miss out on any chances due to the massive crowd who comes for the event every year. Most of the hotels, both in the city and at the RWMF venue, will be fully booked by as early as next month so make your reservations quick!
Personally, I love the service provided by the travel agency we went for last year, Borneo Mainland Tours, as their service was efficient and their employees are really friendly people! From pre-RWMF event days (flight schedule, payment) leading up to the shuttle service (from Kuching International Airport to hotel of your choice, in my case, Santubong Resort) to the check-out process, everything was handled professionally with a touch of friendliness. They even returned to the resort to return my friend's hat which was left in their shuttle van even though they were already in the city on the first day. Hows that for quality service?
The package we took was very cheap compared to others. It was RM1000 per room for 2 pax, which means RM500 per pax really. That RM500 is inclusive of 4 days and 3 nights stay at Santubong Resort with breakfast x3, 3 days event pass (RM60 x3), complimentary (don't you just love when they use this word when they could have just easily use the word 'free'?) one way airport transfer and a few
The room we stayed in was humongous. It could have easily fit in 15 people, no joke. You *can* do that, provided the 13 others buy their own RWMF tickets. Now... you didn't hear that from me. ;)
Just in case you've never been to RWMF, here's a few random pics to entice your senses:
Oooh that weren't all of course. There must be hundreds if not thousands, of RWMF photos on the web. But of course, there ain't nothing like experiencing the real thing eh?
