Besides, there are also several festivals that you can only experience during this period such as the Food Festival, Gawai Dayak, and many other exciting festivals. 

And if you are looking for stay-cation or have a relaxing and serene holiday with your friends and family, it would be recommended to visit around December to February.

With the rain, it would make the natural beauty stand out more, and you would still be able to do some other indoor activities. Moreover, during this time, the accommodation and the flight would be a lot cheaper than usual which makes it perfect for you who are budget-conscious.
