Bintan in and for 24hrs

Post by Diado » Mon, 05 Dec 2005 12:45 pm

Hi there,

a friend and I would like to go to Bintan just for one day ... we are thinking of tomorrow :lol:

Right now I'm a little bit confused ... is it really that easy to go there?

I appreciate any recommandations ... also other destinations for our very spontaneous trip

Thanks, Diado

Of course there are possibly visa issues depending on the country he/she is from. But I hope I also don't have to pack their luggage?? :wink:

Thanks @Carpe Diem and madwolfie

I'm also a little bit concerned to have problems with the Visa.
I'm from Germany and my friend is from the US...

OK, than I will start packing my luggage. Any tipps on that @Carpe Diem?? (just kidding):wink:
Right now I think, all I need is an umbrella ....
