I was little bit shy about massage as I am Muslim and most of Batam people also Muslim. But my shyness dissolved when I found beautiful Girls, Women and Men working in Shops, Massage parlors, restaurants, Hotels and different entertainment profession in Nagoya Hill Shopping Mall and nearby Hotels & Shops. In Batam, unsocial issues are hidden for those people who need those. After my first visit in May 2019, I went 2 times in Batam. I stayed Harmony Suits Hotel, a 4 Star Hotel but price only US$ 33 per night including fantastic breakfast and all facilities of kitchen in room!! Restaurant & Massage service were available 24 Hours in my Hotel room with very reasonable price.

We made this day-long tour from Singapore to see a bit of Indonesia. The journey by ferry takes about one hour, the reservation included the ferry return tickets and a private guided tour of Batam with one-hour massage included. All was nice, maybe not the nicest place on earth and quite different from the luxurious resorts in Bali and other Indonesian highlights, but all the same ok, it was a nice diversion from Singapore. What really made a good day was our guide, Irvin, who was waiting for us to arrive at Batam ferry terminal and stayed with us the whole day, very friendly and conversational, polite and funny, it was just like visiting an old friend and spending time with him for a whole day. During the tour we saw a very interesting Buddhist temple , a coffee factory and a bakery where they bake the traditional layer cake. You can buy coffee and cake if you want but you are not forced to, it’s really up to you. A nice traditional lunch and a fantastic massage we’re also included.

Part of my bias is likely due to the rain. It was a good tour, but obviously some of the out door stuff was a bit problematic. So be careful of this during the rainy season. Lunch was delicious and the massage was great, as was out tour guide. I’d recommend giving it a try if you’re looking for a day away from Singapore.
