kind. The day we had our trip tou our itinerary that day was only 2 of us. so there is no other customer so we had the whole car to ourself the whole day. the driver Anwar help us take various photo at different sites. we enjoy so much. The night firefly trip we didnt see much firefly. but we still had fun. we saw so many stars. romantic experience

What a pleasant day it was meeting our tour guide, Ah Long. He is a local Chinese guide who speaks excellent Mandarin. Patient, polite, punctual, and very knowledgeable, he even brought us to enjoy a delicious and affordable local lunch. We had a great time and truly enjoyed our trip with Ah Long.

Mr Adrian was an excellent tour guide. Helped take really nice photos for us and even helped carry our older kids up the steep stairs at the dunes. He was very knowledgeable as well! very fortunate to have his as a guide. The place was really beautiful and it is definitely a must visit! Took many very scenic lovely photos and was impressed by the dunes and the blue lakes! don't miss out the green lake too!

the best tour guide ever Pak/Mas Dika! Super friendly, understanding and comprehensive in the tour! We were spoilt with choices on which packages to choose and just selected this and Alhamdullilah we had the best guide to guide us along the way. We booked another private tour with him the next day for snorkelling, kayaking and fireflies activity and it was the most amazing experience and smoothest ride ever. He even took really good pictures for us without even asking and that’s the most sought out service ever. On top of that, he played my favourite songs Pop Punk genre throughout the rides which made the atmostphere more homely. I highly and definitely recommend Pak/Mas Dika when you’re planning to come to Bintan or for any tours as he’s the reliable, trustworthy and efficient. This aint a biased review honestly as we had a great time and tour with him! Hope to see you again Pak Dika and we’ll meet again soon!! 🩶😇 ASIKKKKK~

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the excellent service provided by Wayan during our tour. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and very professional throughout the entire experience. Wayan shared interesting information about the local culture and places we visited, and he always made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. His warm personality and attentive service truly enhanced our trip, and we are very grateful for his guidance. Thank you, Wayan, for making our journey memorable!

I saw on the news that Grab service is now available in Bintan, but it seems like the area is somewhat limited (because I turned on Grab in the middle and it said it wasn't available in that area). I felt a bit lost about how to find transportation, so I searched for a day tour and booked it urgently a day before, and I think it was an excellent choice. Because the guide was so, so great!! 🥳 I don't know if it's a random assignment or if only this guide is assigned, but the guide's name was Anwar, and communication was smooth via KakaoTalk even late at night. Before meeting, he carefully gave accurate pick-up location information again, the car was clean, and he prepared bottled water in the car in advance. Oh, and another great thing was that Anwar had a drone and even filmed with it! He said he wasn't a great expert, but I thought he was skilled enough to film, and he even let me fly the drone once, haha. I had a very enjoyable time. Originally, he explained the Chinese temple on the way to Blue Lake and said we'd stop by on the way back, but the last speedboat time was 6 pm, so we had to rush back ㅠㅠㅋㅋㅋ I highly recommend it to anyone planning to go to Bintan!! It's a shame that I can't attach the video! Oh, and you have to get to Bintan Island on your own, and the tour starts from Bintan Island! There are many eagles or owls there, and it's okay to just take pictures, but it seems like you have to pay if you take pictures with them. I was scared, so I didn't do it, but those who are interested should keep that in mind, haha. I went to Blue Lake around 2-4 pm on a weekday, and it was nice because there were no people or sunlight, but they say Blue Lake looks bluer when there is sun. Well, I thought it was good enough.

fun rides .. enjoyable for my kid.. next time we should stay at the resort there so we can get better discounts for the activities like riding e scooters and atv rides

We had fun with the ATV experience! The guide is very friendly, helping us to take photos and videos and make sure we are safe. The route is fun, with mud pond, going up and down and finish with the bamboo forest scenery along the way at the end!

The tour was excellent. It was a pleasure to see the animals up close at Bintan Safari. Bintan Blue Lake was excellent, and our driver was very helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.
