Make your own way to Singapore Harbourfront Centre Ferry Terminal for your 10:00am (GMT+8) high-speed public ferry to the Indonesian town of Batam. After about 1 hour at sea, you will arrive at Batam ferry terminal to clear immigration.
Welcome To Batam Monument
  • 20m
Upon clearing immigration in Batam, your small-group licensed guide will meet you with a signboard, and escort you to your air-conditioned vehicle for a tour around Batam, the largest city in the Riau Islands Province of Indonesia. You will first stop by for a photostop of the Welcome to Batam monument. Modelled after the world-famous Hollywood sign, many tourists and locals come to Batam Center to take photos with the Welcome to Batam monument.

Batam Layer Cakes
  • 20m
Next, you will get to make a quick stop at a local bakery to sample famous Indonesian layer cakes, also affectionately known to the locals as Kueh Lapis. Kueh Lapis is not difficult to make, but it requires time and a lot of patience. The bakers hover next to the oven for a couple of hours grilling each layer of batter. Kueh Lapis is typically served in small, thin, rich and fragrant slices.
Museum Batam Raja Ali Haji
  • 20m
Next, you will visit this local museum named after a famous local poet to learn more about the history of Batam through its many collections and artifacts.

Pura Agung Amerta Buana
  • 20m

  • 20m
Next, you will stop by Garuda Park (Taman Rajawali). Built in 2017, this park features a monument with a statue of the Garuda, often used to represent Indonesia, much like the Bald Eagle in the United States. The Garuda symbolises the virtue of knowledge, power, bravery, loyalty, and discipline.
