Bucket list to do in Batam and Bintan

Batam and Bintan are two of Indonesia's most popular islands, located in the Riau Archipelago near Singapore. Here are 100 things to do and explore in Batam and Bintan: You can take a boat to Batam from Singapore Harbour Front Ferry Terminal or take a boat to Bintan Resorts from Singapore Tanner Merah Ferry Terminal. I have been to Batam and Bintan and both of these places are really nice. With Grab it is easier as well as no need to haggle with the taxis in Indonesia. Transport is a must as the bus frequency is low.
