I’m back in Indonesia; this time in Bintan, the more atas (high class) version of Batam.
My first visit to Bintan was in 2008, cooped up in the Nirwana Gardens Resort. This time, I had the opportunity to venture beyond the fortress of coastal resorts to the more rural parts of the island.

We are a couple from Singapore who loves to travel but loathes planning, uncertainty and complications.
Our solution? Packaged tours!
The good: hassle-free, reputable hotels. The bad: fixed/ rigid schedules, visits to shopping outlets, lousy food, inflated optional tours.
The blog started out as a chronicle of our travel experience but has evolved to include reviews of the tour packages that we have been on.
Welcome to look at the world through our travel lenses.
