After our wedding, we decided to take a ferry to Indonesia Batam over a weekend to enjoy our moments together. It was with a very small group of about 15 people. We were staying at the Mecure Batam Hotel. On the first day we were brought to some of the shops there for some shopping before checking in to the hotel. We did not go for the massage therefore we went straight back to the hotel while the others enjoy their massage session. The morning breakfast provided at the hotel restaurant was fine and the hotel room was comfortable. We went for a short walk around the hotel and saw some interesting road sign .
The weather was very cooling at Cameron highland at that period. It was ranging from 18 degrees to 20 degrees. We were travelling with a small tour group of about 40 people. I do not want to mention the Tour agency's name as their service was not up to standard. My husband and i felt that we will never use that tour agency anymore in future.
We were staying in Equatorial Cameron Highlands Hotel, quite a nice and peaceful place to stay. We find our hotel room were comfortable, the breakfast in the hotel restaurant was fine and the scenery with the cooling weather around the hotel was good.
On the second day at Cameron highlands, we visited a few places famous for the tourists. Like the strawberry farm which we were not allow to enter due to maximum no of people inside the farm which we were unhappy about and the tour agency did not take any action for this unpleasant experience. We turn to other shops around there to enjoy other fruits which tasted good. We also visited places like the Bee Farm, Cactus Farm and the Tea Plantation.
On the last day of our trip before we came back to Singapore, we visited some of the temples over there.
I think it's a good place for a short trip to nearby country to enjoy the nature of the cooling weather and away from busy lifestyle.
