Any Fr on the Korean restaurant - Sarang Bang? I read online it is operated by a old korean couple. Just curious about the price and taste.

one thing need to be noted. the distance from batam center terminal to nagoya is bit far. so the taxi fare won't be cheap too. but compared to how much taxi driver charge at harbourbay, nothing much different also... taxi from harbourbay charge u 50k even though you're going to pacific place which is pratically next building..

taxi from batam center terminal to nagoya, should charge you around Rp80k.. so really not much different in term of price, but very big different in travel distance..
So far i did not saw any batamfast ticket to harbourbay for international passport holder on sales, only seen ticket to batam center and sekupang for $30, if buy in bulk might get a discount.

For Sindo will be at $16/17 without any tax, have to pay $6 at sg side and another 65k at batam side.

For wavemaster will be around 28$ per ticket inclusive of tax.

For pacific ferry will be $30 per ticket inclusive of tax.

Taxi from batam center to nagoya just try to ask for 50 or 60k, i believe 7 out of 10 tries they will accept. Alternatively, take those colourful van for 4/5k per person, just reconfirm if they go nagoya by asking.
