Unvergessliches Brunei: Stadt, Wasserdorf & Dschungel-Safari

Für einen Stopover in Brunei hatte ich diese Tour gebucht und kann diese bestens weiter empfehlen. Nora und Brian haben mich sehr gut betreut und mir die kurzen Zeit möglichst viel gezeigt. Neben der Stadtbesichtigung mit den Moscheen, dem Palast sowie dem Markt haben wir noch einen schönen Ausflug in die Mangrovenwälder und das Wasserdorf gemacht. Herzlich Dank an die beiden fü den tollen Tag. Leider hatte ich nicht genügend Zeit, um eine weitere Tour ins Umland zu machen und die ethnologischen Aspekte in den Dörfern kennenzulernen. Die Agentur bietet ebenfalls solche Touren an.

Wir waren in Brunei für 4 Nächte auf unserem Weg von Australien nach England. Wir benutzten Borneo Reiseführer für alle unsere Ausflüge und würden empfehlen Reisenden empfehlen und Zwischenstopp für ein paar Tage. Die Leute sind alle sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und fast jeder kann etwas Englisch sprechen. Durch Borneo Reiseführer haben wir ein paar Touren ... Sumbling Eco Village (sehr, sehr rustikal) mit der Nacht Spaziergang in den Wald (super) und der langen Boot bis zu den Wald Canopy Walk war eine Freude. Obwohl ich während der Regenzeit hier war und es regnete es ständig, wir haben trotzdem die Zeit im Sumbling hat uns sehr gut gefallen. In Bandar Seri Bagawan (Hauptstadt) haben wir den ganzen Tag über durch das Wasserdorf, nachdem wir hier zu Mittag gegessen. Wir besuchten zwei von den meisten opulent Moscheen und der Nachtmarkt für Essen. Wir haben auch einen Mangroven Tour und sahen proboscis Affen, Wasser Eidechsen und ein Baby Krokodil. Aber, was auch die herrlich Zeit angenehm und unvergesslich werden unsere beiden Führer, Nazri und Qeelah. Sie waren jovial, lustig und sehr gut informiert. Voller Geschichten, Fakten und Informationen über alles um uns herum. Wir so viel gelernt, und wir hatten eine tolle Zeit, es zu tun. Nazri und Qeelah sorgte dafür, dass wir links Brunei mit wunderbaren Erinnerungen an einen schönen Urlaub. Brunei ist so ein kleines Land, das einen Zwischenstopp für ein paar Tage kann man so sehen so viel. Nutzen Sie Borneo Guide, damit Sie Ihren Aufenthalt hier voll an Ausflügen und das beste zu sehen.

We had a good experience with the company, we spotted a lot of Proboscis monkey, the tour guide Aziman & the skipper Bibi had so much knowledge about where is the best place to spotting the monkey. Very recommend.

We saw just about everything there is to see in Brunei on this full day tour. Our guide, Grace, was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We covered a lot of ground in at a good pace. Unfortunately, because of the upcoming holiday, we were not able to enter the mosques, but still took pictures from outside. Lunch was delicious and a lovely location. I loved the boat ride and getting to see the proboscis monkeys!

This is a review about Bruneian Guide, the tour guide. We were in Brunei on a cruise. We booked the tour via Viator (same company as TripAdvisor) initially. It turns out the tour was only available for pickup at a hotel in town (Bandar Seri Begawan). Also, the timing for the cruise docking isn't compatible with the tour he has. So Bruneian Guide messaged me in Viator indicating as such. But he was so super helpful. Initially he tried to help me find another guide who can accommodate us. But after trying for some time, it turned out everyone he knew was already booked up (the cruise came with 3,000 passengers). Then he tried to just find us a driver (and a car), and actually found a driver for us. Well, at the beginning of the cruise, we ran into a few fellow cruisers who happened to have space in their tour, so they invited us to join. And we decided to join their tour, as with a driver (and a car), we will have to do our own research on where to go. So we asked to cancel. Bruneian Guide was so super graceful, and just helped us cancel with the driver. We can't thank him enough. All in all, he is just a super helpful and honest person. If we return to Brunei, he will be the first we will call.

Our driver Eric was great. His English was wonderful and we had no problem understanding him. He was very knowledgeable about the country and the culture. He made us feel very comfortable throughout the day. The tour was fun and informative. We started at the market, where Eric explained the foods that were specific to the region. I asked him to identify a lot of the fruits and vegetables and he was happy to answer. Eric also explained the local foods at the lunch buffet so that we knew what to expect. We visited two mosques, which were both beautiful and fascinating as I had never been inside one. Eric graciously answered all of our questions about the religion. The river cruise was great. Eric and the boat driver managed to find us a troupe of monkeys, even though I had been told it would be hard to see them during this time of year. We also walked through the water village, which provided us with insight into the local culture. The only thing I would change would be the amount of time we spent at the Royal Regalia Museum. It got a little repetitive after a while, and it was really cold inside! But I am definitely glad we visited as the items displayed were beautiful. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Brunei.

If you have only one day in Brunei, this is your best bet - a great mix of history and heritage, urban life and nature, all rolled into a fun, convenient and enlightening experience with a very friendly Brunei-born guide!

I didn't really know what to expect of my short visit to Brunei. I signed up for the 5 hour tour with borneoguide.com, and my guide for the day (Faisal), was excellent. He provided me with loads of information, his English was great, and he was very open to answering questions. I obviously have no experience with the other companies, but would highly recommend this guide. He was early showing up the hotel, great at spotting wildlife during the mangrove tour, and genuinely friendly and wanted to ensure I enjoyed. He also seemed to know everyone in Brunei, and would stop and chat and say hello. Great experience. I was on my own, so had to book a solo tour, and it was expensive however.

Brunei is a different Place: Ruled by a Sovereign sultan, the richest man in the world with a private Collection of more than 7000 cars (incl 450 Ferraris!). And the Sultan reminds everyone of who is in charge through lots of imposing and impressive sights: A mega-large mosque that cost $4 billion With a golden dome, Palaces for everyone to see for himself and his Family, museums of Crown regalia, royal horse stables, monuments to celebrate the Sultan's rule, etc, etc. What is Worth to see in Brunei is the Water Village where real People live, the river, and the tropical jungle along the river. As Brunei has lots of oil Revenues, they have kept the Rainforest and jungle much more intact than Indonesia and Malaysia that to a large extent have replaced rain forest With palm oil plantations. You easily see all sights of Brunei in a day - no reason to stay longer unless you want to admire more of the Sultan's achievements.

<p>I was in Brunei only for a short stay and this tour will give you, as it says, the full Brunei experience. The water village is very interesting and the meal was very good. I recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bandar Seri Begawan.</p>
