Our Story

About Batam.com

An independent travel guide for Singapore visitors exploring Batam Island.

Who we are

Batam.com is an independent editorial project run by a small team of travel writers with first-hand experience on the island. We are not affiliated with any hotel group, ferry operator, or tourism board. Our only goal is to give travellers honest, useful, up-to-date information.

What we cover

We cover hotels, activities, ferry routes, and area guides across Batam Island — with a particular focus on day-trippers and weekenders travelling from Singapore. Every listing is researched and written by a human editor.

How we write

All content is written by our editorial team based on on-the-ground research, operator schedules, and verified pricing. We update listings regularly and flag anything that may have changed since our last visit.

Affiliate disclosure

Some links on this site are affiliate links — if you book through them, we earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This never influences which providers we feature or how we rank them. Read our full affiliate disclosure for details.
