Brunei Darussalam (Brunei, the Abode of Peace) is small, prosperous, stable and peaceful oil rich Kingdom located on the northern shores of the Island of Borneo, which it shares with Malaysia and Indonesia.

Mostly covered in luxuriant and pristine tropical rainforests rich in exotic flora and fauna, Brunei is a paradise for nature lovers and for ecotourism in general.

Because of its small size and excellent road and tourist infrastructure, the best preserved rainforests in Borneo can be easily and safely discovered in day long trips from the comfort of international standard hotels ranging from tourist class inns to the regally opulent Empire Hotel & Country Club, a member of The Leading Hotels of the World, making the enriching experience of ecotourism a much more approachable proposition for those who cherish comfort and safety.

With plenty of greenery, fresh and invigorating pollution free air, a healthy environment free of tropical diseases, no traffic jams and one of the lowest crime rates in the world, Brunei presents many opportunities for students to encounter nature at its best in the unspoiled rainforests and learn through challenging and fun activities that foster bonding, problem solving, leadership and interpersonal skills. Many school groups have already benefited from these programmes, which include activities such as jungle trekking, rock climbing, white water rafting and obstacle courses.

Whether it is enjoying the bountiful nature, admiring the opulence of Brunei’s ancient monarchy, discovering the fascinating Water Village – the largest in the world – and the thriving culture and traditions of the Malay people; or simply enjoying a world class round of golf, horse riding by the beach, being pampered in luxury at the spa or having fun with the kids at the exciting thrill rides in Jerudong Park, Brunei will reveal itself as a true Kingdom of Unexpected Treasures.
