Great way to engage with nature - I really enjoyed this tour. I recommend seeing as much of the Bruneian countryside as possible, and this riverboat tour is perfect for those with limited means and time. Fendi was my guide, and he did a great job explaining the history and ecology of the Brunei River basin. I recommend!

Brunei Discovery - We had a great experience & learned a lot about Brunei & the river wildlife. We saw white heron/egret birds, a small crocodile, the proboscis monkey & long tailed macaque. The opportunity to visit s house in the water village was great too. Our guide was very good. Warm, friendly and answered all our questions.

World's Best Water Culture with Schools and a Cultural Museum - The water culture tour included sighting of several proboscis monkeys in the trees. My driver Baby took me on a great water ride through the huge water city. Truly the most sophisticated water culture I have ever seen, with several schools, and a parking lot off shore for residents to drive to work in the city. This is the first water culture museum I have ever seen and I spent an hour here, exploring the photos and artifacts.

Proboscis monkeys and water village - It took us quite some time but thanks to the team’s efforts we managed to see the proboscis monkeys! After that we visited a water village house and tried some delicious local sweets. It was an opportunity to find out more about Brunei culture and everyday life 👍

Would do it again - The boat ride was very nice. Saw Proboscis, crocodile and different kinds of birds. Also you get to see how locals live along the river.
