A one-day Singapore itinerary from Batam

Because it is so close, many travellers from Batam visit Singapore as a day trip. The secret is to leave early and choose a compact route.

Morning: the crossing

Take an early ferry from Batam Centre or Harbour Bay to HarbourFront. After immigration you are next to VivoCity and the gateway to Sentosa.

Merlion Park for the classic photo, then Marina Bay and Gardens by the Bay's Supertree Grove.

Try a hawker centre such as Lau Pa Sat or Makansutra Gluttons Bay for chicken rice, laksa or satay.

Orchard Road for international brands or Bugis Street for budget-friendly souvenirs.

Be back at the terminal at least an hour before your booked return ferry.

Submit the SG Arrival Card online before arrival. Use a transport card or contactless payment for MRT and buses, and wear comfortable shoes.
