Brunei: Inmersión Total Urbana, Acuática y Manglares Selvajes

Nos alojamos en Brunei por cuatro noches en el camino de Australia y el Reino Unido. Utilizamos guía de Borneo para todas nuestras excursiones y lo recomiendo, y recomendar los viajeros para parar un par de días. La gente es increíblemente amable y servicial, y casi todos hablan un poco de inglés. Por Borneo guía nos hicimos unas cuantas excursiones ... sumbling Eco Village (muy, muy rústico) con el bosque de noche a pie (increíble) y el barco hasta el paseo del dosel del bosque era una alegría. Aunque era temporada de monzón y llovió constantemente, pero aún así lo pasamos nuestro tiempo en Sumbling muchísimo. en Bandar Seri Bagawan (capital) hicimos un paseo de todo el día por el pueblo de agua, comer allí. Visitamos dos de las mezquitas más opulentas, y el mercado nocturno de comida. También hicimos un tour de manglares y vimos monos proboscis, lagartos de agua y un bebé cocodrilos. Pero, lo que hizo el expeirence agradable y memorable eran nuestras dos guías, Nazri y Qeelah. estaban jovial, divertido y muy entendido. llena de historias, hechos y información sobre todo alrededor de nosotros. aprendimos mucho, y nos divertimos tiempo haciendo. Nazri y Qeelah se aseguró de que la izquierda Brunei con unas grandes recuerdos de unas vacaciones estupendas. Brunei es un pequeño país, que desea pasar unos días significa que se puede ver mucho. uso Borneo guía para ayudar a hacer su estancia allí lleno de excursiones y para ver la mejor oferta.

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>

<p>A fantastic tour. The guide was so knowledgeable and friendly. I loved the mix of different experiences - the mosques, the museum, the market, the water village and the mangroves.</p>
