Many cruise ships offer tours venturing into the capital city of Bandar Seri Begawan, which is 30 minutes away, to see the city's mosque, museums and the Sultan's Palace. Another popular attraction is a tour of Kampong Ayer, the water village, made up of houses on stilts connected by wooden planks. Independent travelers can reach Bandar Seri Begawan by buses departing from Muara's Serasa Ferry Terminal.
