You can get
around Brunei by bus, hired car or taxi. If you are visiting around the
capital city, then public buses are reliable and cheap. The bus service
runs from 6 am to 6 pm. It is easy to catch buses plying the main highway
between Bandar Seri Begawan and Kuala Belait.
However,
should you wish to check out the hinterland, then a hired car would be
the best and least expensive option. Tour packages are pricey and taxis
are exorbitant.
You can always
hitchhike though. Hitchhiking in Brunei is a novelty so your chances of
getting a lift are good. However, cars are not likely to stop for you
along the main highway. While Brunei is generally a safe place to tour,
yet hitchhiking can never be 100% safe anywhere in the world. Use that
only if you do not have a choice. Try not to hitchhike alone though.
Alternatively,
you may travel by boat. There are regular boats connecting Bangar in the
Temburong district with Bandar Seri Begawan. While in Temburong, taxis
are the only means of transport.
