The BIGGEST Floating Village in the World 🇧🇳

The Oldest Floating Village in the World is called Kampong Ayer and it is located in the city of Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei. Here you will find hundreds of homes that sit on wooden stilts right along the Brunei River and more than 20,000 people call this place home! It is documented as one of the oldest and largest water village settlements in history and in this video I will give you a tour of this very unique location!

[@applewildknight]

Hi Chris, a Bruneian here. Thank you for bringing your always positive perspective in the visit to Brunei. Indeed Brunei is not like Dubai or other rapidly growing metropolitan countries but we are proud of our culture, heritage and way of living. Thank you for being so respectful and kind. Wishing you the best and we hope to see you again. And if you do decide to visit again, let us know early :)

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much! I will definitely come back one day! I appreciate the love!

[@achrafb9114]

im from france, really nice to see such new horizons. thank you also for not doing as many other youtubers who say bad things about brunei just bcs it doesnt have the same moral values as them.

[@wildearth3992]

France ? T’es arabe toi pas français 😂

[@cheryll8008]

Hi Chris I live south from Brunei in a place called Kuching. Still in borneo. Bruneians are educated and able to converse in English so well! They are very civic concious too

[@zrullex]

Sup chris , Wand here... I hope you gonna visit Brunei again in the future.. Thanks for visiting Brunei 😁👋 Edited: also it's Wand.. Not Wayne.. That's why i say magic Wand... And maybe my pronunciation is a bit off.. A little bit of nervous in front of camera... 😅

[@rokiahtajuddin2089]

You are humble tourists and could interact with locals .Then you know how nice and welcoming the people are towards tourists.

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@hayleykhan896]

Oh wow, what a place! I think you’re going to do positive things for Brunei’s tourism. You guys are braver than me, some of the boardwalk was giving me second hand anxiety! What lovely people too! Good luck to Wayne ❤

[@RespectAndLoveAndPeaceWins]

Love this video. The sights, the happy boatman, the watervillage and those precious kids. Thanks for doin it Chris - I appriciate it. All the best to you & Gladys. ❤️🙌

Chris … Thank you for portraying my country in a more informative content. For the time being I live in your California to experience its fast and furious pace. Believe it or not I’ve been in CA for 23 yrs and hv not bumped into another Bruneian living in CA. Hope u did enjoy what Brunei had to offer as there not many like it.

I also would love to meet him too maybe one day 😃

[@fritoguy]

That floating village definitely looks a lot better then some I’ve seen in South America. See any crocs when you were there?

[@socielledstance]

As a Bruneian I’m impressed on how fluent the high schooler is in english. Back then people of his age rarely speak English fluently. I guess the age of KZbin does help.

[@sitizitun2535]

Thank you for coming to Brunei. ❤

[@buj1387]

Good of Wand for looking after his nephew and nieces. Ghris and Glady are strangers after all. You can see his serious demeanour before Chris puts him at ease with, I'm sure, his friendly manners as well.

[@GrilledChickenRamyun]

Hi Chris. Local here. First of all welcome to our humble country. Secondly i feel really bad because i never get to stumble upon you i swear if i were around id would definitely give assistance and tour you around. The thing about Brunei is you have to know someone to fully experience Brunei. Trust me people would take you to their homes, take you to dinner etc😂 also yes Brunei can be very quiet if you come at the wrong timing most would be in school, work etc. id suggest you to have a guide next time. Alsoooo please come back during Eid! Its the best time to be around! Now that Bruneian familiar with you. High chances Brunei would def be eager and enthusiastic to give you the best visit. Might aswell be your second home. Us here are very friendly altho not all can speak english but theyre all friendly and helpful. Another note appreciate you embrace the simplicity, difference here. As for that, would love to thank you

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much for the kind words!

[@nirobeata]

My bro amazing video as always and brunei is such clean and beautiful country with nice people ...stay safe .. Cheers Nirosh .

[@Nikkioq]

He seems like such an outstanding young man.

[@Jeflexful]

Wow! I had it all wrong at fist about that local water taxi driver man. When I first heard you said he was to charge $40 for the trip, I thought that was steep but rightfully so too. What I didn't know was he meant that it was a package deal for 2 hours! That's insanely cheap actually! And that man there could handle himself in a conversation with a foreigner using a foreign language. Mad respect to him

[@kimsryfishing]

Hello friend, look very nice city ❤❤❤

[@Travelwithchris]

Hello! Yes it is! Such a beautiful place!

Amazing content , I would so live on one of them if it was sun 🌞 all year round would be so cool

[@marul69]

Our wettest months are usually July, but the rest of the year it's usually hot and sunny. I've never lived Kg Ayer but I have relatives who do and we mostly visit and stay with them during school holidays. But, most have moved inland so no chance of that anymore. If you want to experience staying there, try booking a room at Kunyit 7 Lodge. The host is a good friend of mine and she is a walking history book about Kg Ayer 😊

[@ricardorodrigues1163]

I would love to relocate to Brunei with my family (girlfriend and our 5 year old daughter). Can someone shed some light on the process and if it is easy to stay there? Can I get a temporary residence permit if I buy a house / apartment in Brunei? We are from Portugal.

[@TibbyIbrahim]

You should probably need a working visa if you want to stay here. And can only rent a house/apartment. But i might be wrong. So best probably ask our embassy

[@wawaweewa9159]

General rule ocountries are more accepting to give residency or even citizenship if you move to work there for a good amount of time
