Bandar Seri Begawan: Brunei River Safari with Hotel Pickup｜Brunei

Begin with a convenient hotel pickup and transfer to the boat jetty in Bandar Seri Begawan. Board a traditional open-deck local boat and cruise along the scenic Brunei River, enjoying panoramic views of the capital city's waterfront and surrounding mangrove forests.

During the cruise, pass by the magnificent Istana Nurul Iman, the official residence of His Majesty the Sultan of Brunei and one of the world's largest residential palaces. Continue into the tranquil mangrove ecosystem, home to a rich variety of wildlife and birdlife.

Keep an eye out for the rare proboscis monkeys, an endangered species found only on the island of Borneo. These fascinating primates are easily recognized by their distinctive long noses and are often spotted resting or feeding among the mangrove trees. You may also encounter kingfishers, herons, egrets, monitor lizards, mudskippers, and other native wildlife during your river safari.
