Things to do
Visit a longhouse, like the over 100-year-old Rumah Bundong (formerly known as Rumah Seligi after the late chief). For a few hour tour during the day, just head to the wet market (big outdoor square selling fish and other assortments) and talk to one of the yellow cab drivers. William Taba () will provide transport at a fair price (half price of any 'tour guide').

Where to eat
When in Kapit you must try some of the excellent local cuisine such as wild boar (babi hutan). There are great hawker stalls that open at the Open Air Night Market one street behind the public square. Unnamed Chinese Stall at the Open Air Night Market next to the Methodist Church (side closest to the Rajang River on the "upstream" end). Probably the best food at the night market.
