What you can expect
Begin your tour at the Kampong Ayer Cultural & Tourism Gallery, which provides essential context regarding the architectural evolution of the village—from traditional Nibung palm structures to modern homes equipped with electricity and satellite connectivity.
Then, traverse a vast network of over 30 kilometres of walkways, connecting approximately 30 distinct villages that function as a self-sufficient town, complete with schools, mosques, and emergency services.
Next, continue with a river safari into the surrounding mangrove ecosystems, specifically targeting the habitat of the endemic Proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus). These primates, characterised by their distinctively large noses and complex social structures, are most active during the early morning or late afternoon.
Navigate the Brunei River by water taxi or private boat and observe these animals in their natural riparian environment, often accompanied by sightings of saltwater crocodiles, monitor lizards, and a diverse array of tropical bird species.
