Does anyone know how they are offering cheap ferry tickets on Carousell? Are those legit?

Those are legit just that there is usually a chargeable $20+ misc fees at ferry terminal. Anyway, if you have a bank card, ferry companies like Majesty, Sindo and etc having ticket promo. Just call the ferry office to enquire.

I bought at Qoo10 before. Around $30+ including tax all that.

Actually I heard that if you get the to and fro tickets from batam side. It's only $20+

Hehe if you use the right item and cart coupons, can discount until $19bucks all in not even including credit card rebates yet. Pity I don't dare to go Batam. :s22:

$10 discount if you are ntuc member. http://www.sindoferry.com.sg/ntuc-union-silver-plus-card-batam-centre-sekupang-and-waterfront

My friend always bought from carousell. She said she either collect from harbourfront or dhoby ghaut from the seller but you must book the ticket yourself i think.

Most will simply choose the hotels that are across the road from popular malls. Especially those that have complimentary shuttle service to other malls.

Its at one end of Batam and has all the water sports. Perfect if you intend to stay all the time in the resort. Will be expensive if taking taxi to town and back.

there are many shop selling lense in mall, but better purchase from official glasses shop, not in counter counter coz you never know where they got that stuff

Holiday inn is better choice if you dont want to take risk

Turi Beach is good choice for average rates. if you want high class, go to montigo

Visited Batam today with my family and took the transport service from Uncle Piaw.

We were extremely satisfied with the service of Uncle Piaw. He is very friendly, patient and honest. We recommend him highly to anyone considering his service....
