Tourists can now experience the 'Brunei River Cruise', the latest tourism product in the market to provide a wholesome experience of the water village scenery.
The tour product was launched by chairman of the Brunei Tourism Board, Dato Paduka Hj Hamdillah bin Hj Abd Wahab at the RMS Portview Seafood Restaurant yesterday.
The launching event was attended by representatives from foreign embassies in Brunei Darussalam, members of Brunei Tourism Board as well as government officials and stakeholders of the tourism industry.
The cruise offers four different tour packages including Water Village Tour, Proboscis Monkey Tour, Night Cruise Tour and Firefly Sighting and Seafood Dinner.
With the launch, three new models of a 25 feet pontoon boat running on 100 hp engines were unveiled and put into use. They can accommodate 14 passengers.
The Brunei River Cruise is designed and run by AAA Dolphin Dive and Trading, a local tour operator specialising in river and marine activities. The cruise is expected to complement the existing tourism products and enhance the tourism market in the country.
AAA Dolphin Dive and Trading will also contribute US$1 for the preservation of the Brunei river's environment and wildlife awareness programmes for every tourist or passenger on board the Brunei River Cruise.
