A town seen from the water
The provincial tourism guide documents small-boat sightseeing on the Mentaya, including views of riverside neighbourhoods and a possible Sagonta Kota landing in Baamang Hulu. Treat these as route ideas to discuss locally, rather than a fixed circuit. Watch everyday river life and the changing townscape from the boat. This city outing is distinct from a forest or wildlife expedition farther downriver.
Agree on a suitable outing
Ask your accommodation or a local boat provider to identify the departure point, duration, price, return and any permitted stops. Check passenger capacity and a properly fitting lifejacket for each person. Departure depends on a suitable boat and river conditions; no scheduled service or confirmed online package is established here. Keep photographs respectful around homes and working landings. If arrangements do not suit, enjoy the river from Sampit’s public waterfront instead.
