- Join me as I explore Batam, an island in Indonesia often overlooked by tourists. In this vlog, I take you through the less traveled paths of Batam, from its quiet temples to bustling market festivals. Discover Batam's promenade, wander through its malls, and experience the local culture firsthand.
Despite Batam being an island for people from Singapore to come there for a weekend, I found the island had limited activities and areas that were covered with trash. I give you my honest review of Batam, showcasing both the good and the less appealing aspects, helping you decide if it's a destination for your travel list.

❤nice Batam I from batam❤❤
Hi when u wannna go again?
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.
That explains a lot 😅 maybe next time I go to the other islands you mentioned!
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 :)
And thanks for the feedback 😊
Batam is undeveloped city in Indonesia. Different to Jakarta, Surabaya, Yogyakarta, and Bandung
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
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..
I did not know batam has chinese temple
I discovered only because I walked past 😅
