Brunei · A closer look

Waterfront communities and everyday hospitality

Good visits leave room for the people who live and work in the places you came to see.

Ask before entering

Water-village walkways do not make every house a public attraction. Use a local guide and arrange any home visit with the host.

Ask about local dishes and explain dietary needs. Follow local customs around religious observance and the consumption of food and drink in public.

Ask permission before photographing people, homes or worship, and accept a refusal without pressing.

Agree hosted visits, guide language, fees and the return transport before setting out.
