Enjoying Kalimantan is best though the rivers. The greater part of the land consists of forest and rivers. So, the main transportation in Kalimantan is by means of small boats/water-taxis.

On-land transportation in Kalimantan is by means of public buses, taxis, or becak.

Klotok ambulance is a small boat equipped with medical facilities for the health service in the hinterland in South Kalimantan Motor-vehicles are used for in-town transportation or connecting the cities with their vicinities/suburbs located nearby.

You can stay in the luxurious hotels in the city. In small towns, usually local losmen (like an inn) can be found. However, entertainment and restaurants of international standards can be found only in the big cities’ luxurious hotels.
