Discover adventure holidays with the leading Asia travel experts on small-group or tailor-made tours.
Brunei, a hidden gem on the island of Borneo, is a land of regal splendour, untouched rainforests, and rich Islamic heritage. Though small in size, this sovereign sultanate boasts immense wealth, thanks to its vast oil reserves, and is home to one of the world’s richest monarchs. The Istana Nurul Iman, the Sultan’s 1,700-room palace, is a sight to behold, best viewed from the water while cruising the Brunei River.
Brunei’s capital, Bandar Seri Begawan, offers a captivating mix of tradition and modernity. The Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque, with its golden domes and floating lagoon, stands as an architectural masterpiece, while the nearby Kampong Ayer, the world’s largest water village, provides a glimpse into the country’s centuries-old way of life. Beyond the city, Brunei’s natural wonders unfold in Ulu Temburong National Park, where pristine rainforests shelter rare wildlife and hidden waterfalls, offering eco-adventurers an unspoiled paradise.
With alcohol banned by law, Brunei embraces a tranquil and deeply spiritual way of life, where Malay, Chinese, and Indigenous influences create a fascinating cultural tapestry. Whether you seek history, nature, or a glimpse into the life of royalty, Brunei offers a journey both opulent and serene.
