KAMPUNG BIIH
AGROTOURISM
Kampung Biih Agrotourism presents a series of tourism activities that utilize plantations as their main sector. The purpose of this agro-tourism, besides preserving plantation products, is also to improve the community's economy, attract the public as a tourist spot, and as an educational destination for visitors.
Kampung Biih Agrotourism has been open since November 2019 and has succeeded in attracting the attention of tourists. Kampung Biih Agrotourism is located in Biih Village, Karang Intan District, Banjar Regency, South Kalimantan. From Banjarmasin to Kampung Biih Agrotourism, it takes about 1.5 hours. Meanwhile, the trip from Syamsudin Noor International Airport to Kampung Biih Agrotourism takes about an hour.
The typical rural atmosphere is still very strong here, plus the expanse of hills and forests that surround this village make the air even cooler. In addition, managers are starting to add Instagrammable rides or photo spots so that more tourists from outside of the area will recognize them. This location is also perfect for creating memorable experiences with fun activities. However, visitors should exercise caution when traveling to the destination due to the challenging road conditions. Please keep your eyes on the road and take the necessary precautions to ensure your safety.
