...Brunei, on the North coast of the island of Borneo is probably best known for HM The Sultan being the world's richest man. Perhaps he is, who knows? Does it matter?
Brunei is a devoutly Islamic state where there is no nightlife - no clubs or bars. But don't let that put you off visiting. Tthere are lots of hidden treasures - for those adventerous enough to seek them out.
For a lazy laid back holiday, try a stay at the Empire Hotel to experience life in the lap of extravagant luxury, but at an affordable price.
Then there's the virgin tropical rainforest - take a 'Flying Coffin' speedboat across Brunei Bay and spend some time at the rainforest centre in Temburong, the separated district of Brunei.
SCUBA Divers find Brunei an excellent base for reef and wreck diving and non-divers can learn under supervision from qualified instructors.
So, don't be put off by what you read on travel pages like Lonely Planet. Pay a visit - and be sure to fly with RBA. Go on, buy a ticket, we need the money!
