Terrific tour from an unsurpassable guide!

Mawi was one of the best guides I've ever had. He was knowledgabe and generous and friendly and super communicative. He adapted my tour of Brunei to fit my specific interests and gave me a thoroughly fantastic overview in a single day. He also helped me buy a shirt and plan my next day. It was thoroughly enjoyable and I can't recommend him more highly!

Great tour

This was a wonderful tour. Fisal is an excellent guide; he is a very nice, sincere, and intelligent person. In addition to showing us the sites, Fisal explained many things about Brunei’s history and culture. He told us the great things about living in Brunei. We especially enjoyed the mosque and the water village. It was great seeing a family’s home and eating the delicious fried bananas.

Peaceful, Wildlife-Packed Private River Safari

We left our hotel at 7am and it was the best call because we were on the river before the group tours and the late private tours, so it felt calm, quiet, and special. We were one of only two boats out there. We spotted around 10 proboscis monkeys, grey monkeys, tons of birds, and even a crocodile. Our guide and captain were warm, knowledgeable, and made us feel completely safe. The boat was clean, comfortable, and well kept. Such a fun, peaceful experience and totally worth it.

Guide was polite and...

Guide was polite and helpful. Arrived right in time. I liked boat trip through water village and monkey photo-hunting. I am upset about Viator price policy: solo tourists should pay for 2 pax. This is comment to Viator, probably will not chose trips from here anymore as I was charged double price several times despite the fact I am traveling alone.
