Description
Enjoy a relaxing leisure boat ride through Brunei’s nostalgic Water Village, where traditional stilt houses line the waterways. Along the way, we’ll make several stops beneath the natural mangrove trees and through the surrounding wetlands to look out for the rare and endangered proboscis monkeys, found only on the island of Borneo, as well as other fascinating wildlife. This peaceful journey offers a wonderful opportunity to experience Brunei’s unique riverine environment and observe its wildlife in their natural habitat.
