Batam is actually a city that is still under development and this city is more geared towards industry and services than tourism. If they want to travel, most Batam people come to the surrounding islands such as Bintan, Balai Karimun, Natuna and Anambas which have more natural attractions.
Im from batam you actually come to wrong area some part of batam are still undeveloped. You can try to stay at sovrano hotel if you come here again and explore pasar penuin, pasar pasir putih
Best place in Batam......the exit channel at the ferry terminal. Just joking (well sort of)......get over to Nongsa - got golf, monkeys, café, beach bars, good food, watersports-jet ski's, paragliding, yachts, BBQ buffets. 1)-Tiger Beach Club 2)-Nongsa Marina 3)-Turi Beach Resort 4)-Nongsa Village 5)-The Gallery Shop & Café
yeah the exit channel was fantastic haha. guess the places you recommend are better, thats always the risk when you go somewhere where you dont know anything about,,
Hello, Great video ! Few questions: 1) Can I use Grab in Batam ? 2) Where can I buy a SIM Card as soon as I arrive in Batam from Singapore ? 3) Is Batam cheaper than Bali. I am confuse to decide which island I can go since I have just 3 days to go back to Singapore. Thank you so much for your help. Take care !
Hey! Yes you can use grab there, it is pretty easy. Depending on what SIM card you have from Singapore you might be able to have data roaming in Indonesia. I haven’t been to Bali yet so I don’t know about the prices, Batam wasn’t as cheap as I expected it to be.. If I were you I wouldn’t go to Batam tho. Maybe if you want to do watersports then it could be nice (that’s what I heard) but the city itself isn’t interesting or much to do.. Hope I could help you :)
Grab - best in Batam no issues, Telcomsel or XL can easy get at airport/ferry terminals, Batam & Bali completely different, it's like comparing chalk n cheese, Batam is more expensive now. Bintan or Ranoh Isl worth a trip.
Offensichtlich hast du die besten Locations in Batam verpasst. Es ist eine wundervolle Insel mit viel leckerem Essen, einheimischem Leben und Kultur, Massage, Meer, .... Du sprichst immer von "We" - aber schreibst oben "as I explore Batam" - wer ist also We ? Reist Du alleine ?
Das kann gut sein ja, zurück gehen würd ich trotzdem nicht nochmal, dafür gibt es so viele andere Inseln, die ich lieber erkunden will 😅 Ich reis nicht allein; aber meine Reisebegleitung möchte nicht in den Videos sein :)
the trash has got out of control........once too much they just have a burn up on the side of the roads.......I see a lot of people complaining about this to the authorities' now.

Are there buses in Batam? I didn't see any.. Yes, the trash is a lot..
@@Manusdreamabroad Yes, there are. Its called TransBatam
🌺謝謝
Batam is really² hot & humid!
haha yes it is, but south east asia in general is very hot!

That explains a lot 😅 maybe next time I go to the other islands you mentioned!

Yes I also think I went to the wrong areas 😂 will see if I give it another try or explore different islands 😊
Batam is a place where Singaporean businessmen take their secretaries for ahem…business. A seedy experience.
:D :D well i might say there are better places for Business haha

Batam is a working class place unlike bali. Sad to see those thrash.
It was really sad how much trash there was. I wasn’t even filming all of it..
the trash has got out of control........once too much they just have a burn up on the side of the roads.......I see a lot of people complaining about this to the authorities' now.
@@btkindonesia137 it is really sad to see.. i also saw people just throwing the trash into the ocean instead of the trash can 10 meters further..

"Fun" is relative. So far only the caucasians who went to Batam whines about it. Do some homework before you whine about it on YT.
