Bandar Seri Begawan is a city of two terrains: the stilted water villages that make up some of the city's historic aquatic districts stretch out into the sea, while drier districts spread out over the flatter areas of land. The beaches around the area offer vibrant undersea life, drawing scuba enthusiasts and snorkelers from around the world. Above ground the gold-domed Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddin Mosque dazzles with its intricate marble design and museums provide ample cultural stimulation.

I had to pay a premium to do this tour as I was travelling solo but that did mean that I got a guide to myself for the day, which was a little intense but also meant we could spend longer at places I liked and less time or even skip those I was not too bothered about. All of it was interesting but wandering around on the boards of Kampong Ayer, after stopping off for tea in what ha to be it’s very poshest house, was probably the highlight.

Brunei is known as a nation of foodies, thanks to our long culturally rich history giving us a diverse cuisine of Malay, Chinese, Indian and other Asian influences (a blend similar to the rest of Malaysia). This means our traditional indigenous recipes are overlooked and not represented in the majority of places to eat. So this tour is very different and offers the opportunity to learn about, cook and enjoy eating REAL local food that's unique to Brunei!
Inclusions: All related expenses including transportation, guiding and ingredients are included in the cost of the tour

We were met my Aisha, who was delightfully friendly. Our tour guide, Nina, was exceptional. Her English was perfect, her knowledge remarkable and her charming yet professional attitude was compelling. Nina gave us an enormous amount of interesting information. As we had already done some of the activities on the tour, she was very flexible and immediately suggested alternatives which were not supposed to be on the tour. Since we were enjoying ourselves so much, we over-ran the tour timing - by about 3 hours! So a half day tour turned into a day tour, with Nina seeming enthusiastic about showing us moire, all at a minimal additional cost. I’m not much of a “tour person” but enjoyed this day enormously. It was very interesting and memorable.
