Bintan - need urgent help!!!

Post by audiojunky » Fri, 06 Jul 2007 5:49 pm

Hi - we're planning to go to Bintan tomorrow but the only ferry company that I found online was Bintan Resort Ferry (http://www.brf.com.sg/) and they're sold out.

Does anyone know if there are any other ferries operating to Bintan and if they leave from Harbor Front or Tanah Mehra?

THANKS A TON!!!

Yes, BRF are the only operator to the resorty northern bit of Bintan. There are others who go elsewhere on Bintan (mostly Tanjung Pinang), and if you're adventurous you can go there and try to cross by land. This is not very time or cost efficient though...
