Yes,definitely more expensive. But for Batam beginners who are thin-skinned, lacking confidence and fearful of the smallest occurrence during travelling like myself 3 years ago,it is still considerably
a pretty fair deal,hehehe...especially the plans were to be within school holiday next month where Swissbel hotel Harbour Bay pricing is even higher. This coming weekend price for Swissbel Harbour Bay is already S$76.00. Add S$48 for 2 way Horizon Ferry ticket,total is
S$124.00 if I go solo on my own.
S$110 + S$29 = S$139.00 for brochure package
S$139.00 -
S$124.00 = S$15 extra

That's why I would say it don't exactly fit me (today),hehehe...but
S$15 extra to buy some 'courage' for the about 3 years ago "newbie me",i think its still worth the cost. If I am still 'me' about 3 years ago, i am more likely to take up the brochure deal offered by me.
Nearly 3 years ago when I 1st started, I offered in public anyone who could bring me along to Batam for the 1st time by paying for half their ferry ticket price, remember?

History reminds me that I was once a noob,i once almost have to pay for "hold-hand service". It also reminds me of the people in the old Batam thread who helped me too (I am all grateful to them till today). Its one of the reason why the
Beginner's Guide for 1st Time Batam Visitor is created, hehehe...
The tide has turned around today.
