    To be honest, there are still much more to be explored in Batam especially in food cuisine.
    What's unique in Batam is that we have a lot of "Indonesian-race" living here such as Batak, Java, Padang, Flores, Ambon, Chinese, Melayu,etc and therefore, the amount of culinary is a lot more variety.
    If you guys ever come to Batam, i'd be glad to list out the food places you guys should definitely try out
    All in all, what a great video !

  • @angzt83
    @angzt83 2 ปีที่แล้ว +25

    wow, Batam has evolved so much compared to 10 years ago.. Would definitely like to try their local food asam pedas, dry crab bee-hoon etc..and if i get a chance to stay at Aston Batam hotel, would definitely go gaga like Nina trying out their gym facility, their outdoors jet ski activity, banana boat, parasailing, kayaking etc...Hope to do this with my wife too..we badly need a break lol

  • @TsanFilms

    Dont have a creative answer, just a true story! So the activity Im looking forward to is jet skiing because the last time I tried doing that was like a decade ago when I was young. Wasnt able to do it because when I was about to get on the ski, I (kid you not) STEPPED ON A SEA TURTLE AND IT BIT MY FOOT HAHAHA!! My foot got infected and I had to be rushed to a nearby hospital, ever since then, I avoided going into the open water sea 🤣 ty for listening to my story, good luck everyone!!

  • @CrazyPaperSun
    @CrazyPaperSun 2 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    the activity to try out the most have to be the jet skis cause those shots by Char literally just blew my mind, it looked so fun! Im truly amazed she did the shots , including those drone shots by herself 🙌

  • @sanchua9412

    Been to Batam 8-9 years ago, and hadn't thought of going back again until I watched this video! I want to try jetskiing, I love water sports and the view is so magnificent!!
    And, Aston hotel looks very nicee!!! Confirm is my home away from home.. away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, haiz type 到头很晕 @.@

    Honestly as a big foodie, there's nothing more interesting than diving into the food culture of another country. A2 Foodcourt sounds like the activity for me! Plus, if I cannot get A's in school, at least I can go there and get an A2 in real life. :')

    The last trip I was supposed to go on with my parents was more than a decade ago and was cancelled due to my mum’s sudden onset of heart attack. I really hope to bring my parents to Batam and the Eco Edu Park since one of my fondest memories were going on the RC organized tours to the Zoo & Safari with my parents when my brother and I were kids.
    I think a family trip is long overdue. Having the entire family on the trip will make sharing of the Nasi Padang and dishes at A2 food court a wonderful experience. After all, what better way to bond as Singaporeans than through food 🤤😋🥘🫔🍛🍲🍝🍢🥙🧆🍚

Never tried before but really look forward to trying it for myself!! Confirm damn shiok haha

    the Jet Ski looks really fun, even though I can’t swim but what’s life without a little bit of risk and adventure?? If I chicken out, I’ll take comfort and just head straight for nasi padang cos 1) I love eating 2) it’s my only skill 3) it’s like a buffet with the varieties!! best of both worlds. And then end the night w ice cream cos nothing some ice cream can’t fix.

    This was such a well made video and certainly made me look forward to my future trips! The activity that I will definitely like to try will be the jetsk. Firstly, this is something that is not readily available in Singapore and more importantly, you guys look so cool doing it I really wish I could give it a spin.
    The idea of the calming sea accompanied by the strong speed and wind blowing on my face just feels like a joy a behold. Furthermore, my partner and I have been on a couple of trips together before but mostly to the city and we have planning to try something more activity-based and the jetski and whole of batam check all the boxes!

    Hi Aiken, Nina and Char!! I am Indonesian (from Batam) and I told my friends that there’s nothing much there 😂 Probably because I have been away for too long.. But now I realise 48 hours is really not enough cos there are so many things to do and food to try. Maybe start a 2D1N series where you introduce activities and food to try in our neighbouring countries, I want to join and be part of it please!!
