Travel Preparation:
☎️ SIM card and plug adapter are essential! Brunei uses British standard plugs, so buy one in advance. You can also get local data SIM cards at the airport or convenience stores for easy communication and navigation.
📄 Visa and documents are crucial! Make sure your passport is valid for more than six months, and get your e-visa or visa on arrival ready in advance. Print out all documents and carry them with you.
👕 March is hot and humid with frequent rain, so bring light, breathable summer clothes like quick-dry T-shirts and shorts. But for temple visits, wear long sleeves and pants; a long-sleeve jacket is necessary.
🌧️ Don’t forget rain gear! March is rainy season with sudden showers. Carry a foldable umbrella or a lightweight raincoat just in case.
🥾 Comfortable shoes are key! Suitable for strolling around Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque and hiking in Ulu Temburong National Park. A pair of sneakers is practical.
🔋 Power bank and sunscreen are important! UV rays are strong during the day, so reapply sunscreen regularly. Phone use for photos and navigation drains battery fast, so bring a power bank to enjoy the day worry-free.
