5.00I am so glad I took this tour, which was the best possible introduction to this lovely country in northern Borneo. My tour guide was Mohammad Effendi, who customized the trip to my preferences. We visited 3 spectacular mosques: the Jame' Asr Hassanil Bolkiah Mosque, the Ash Shaliheen Mosque, which reminded me of the mezquita in Córdoba, Spain, and the Omar 'Ali Saifuddien Mosque. We also went to the Kianggeh Market, and saw the Royal Palace (Istana Nurul Iman) from the gate, and the tour also included a very picturesque boat cruise to the Water Village (Kampong Ayer).
Great tour of Brunei’s highlights.

5.00Enjoyable tour of Brunei’s important sites. Water village is not to be missed, a very unique feature of Brunei. Recommend combining this tour with the proboscis monkey river tour to get a full scope of Brunei.
A comprehensive city tour

5.00Gandi was an excellent guide with extensive knowledge of his country to share with us. He loved our visit to the market, two Mosques, the Royal Museum and boat tour and visit to the water village. Visiting a water village home was special, ended with a great lunch.
