Brunei-Muara
Sleep in Bandar Seri Begawan and treat everything else in the district as a short ride: the mosque, the museum, the water village, the night market.

Rules in force · 3
- Brunei ↗Check entry rules and any visa only on the Brunei Immigration and Registration Department site; many passports enter for a short stay without a visa, others do not.
- Brunei ↗Alcohol is not sold in shops or restaurants. Non-Muslim adult visitors may bring a limited quantity in; check the customs rule before you fly and declare it.
- Brunei ↗Dress modestly in public: shoulders and knees covered, especially at mosques and government buildings.
Brunei-Muara holds the capital, the airport and nearly every sight a first visit needs. Nothing here needs a second bed; the effort goes into timing around prayer hours and heat, not into transport.
