One juta one month room with air con and security is quite gd, i think is quite convenient la.

When u want visit her, u can stay there also.

is it safe for a first timer to visit Batam? i might be heading on the 18th June. what things should i take note of besides the regular 'no flaunting of wealth'.

how do i book a driver cum 'farm' guide in advance? any lobang?

thanks!

Since this is your 1st time perhaps you need to rely on taxi drivers to 'show' you the way

Read more On this thread and try to tag along with seasoned campaigners here

Enjoy

bro playboy85 judging from your forum name u are 25~6 batam is safe is not like some country where u think u will get robbed empty even when walking around just use comment sense and u will be fine there. Stay away from Disco as can be kinda shocking if u wanna go go with some friend and dont freak out when u see some start popping drug.

Read the post on where to book gal on some joint or massage palour allot have posted over here or even FL from pub / dicso. Get a good driver and u dont even have to worry about where to find cewek as the driver will bring u to most places mention here and even some not mention here.
If possible join another bro here going on same date to share the cost of taxi and food it help allot really and he can be tour guide if u are new or donno malay.

I am going on 10 june -_-

S.B.Y.1 · #**11681** 07-06-2011, 12:47 AM

Don't trust your taxi driver too much

And yes a little Malay will help

Share here on what's your plan like and maybe Mas here can advis you

If you're heading to 'action' places then Pak suggest you take Wavemaster to Batu Ampar and depends on which hotel you choose

That is the centre of all the fun. Read up and you know that there are alot of places to choose from. Just a hint here.

QUeens is infront( left) of hotel. New berlian is to the right, Dynasty is directly on the left, Berry Indah is behind Queens, Indah2 is behind the mall( centre point) that is next to the hotel.

Massage wise, there is a in house massage centre name Kings.

Infront of astro, or next to peniun hotel, lovina inn, that is a market place with plenty of food stalls that open everyday morning, full of good food. Just remember it operates only morning.
