PLAN YOUR VISIT

Getting there: Brunei is easily accessible ifrom many countries via Brunei International Airport, which is just outside the capital, Bandar Seri Begawan

Getting around: The most convenient way of getting around is by bus within the city centre, and there are other buses, though infrequent, that head to areas outside of the capital. The country has few taxis, so if you require one during your trip, you’ll have to book it in advance. Arranged tours are usually the recommended way to get between tourist sites
