Awe-struck view of Blue Lake and Sand Dunes - Firstly I would like to thank Bintan Travel Guide company for the wonderful trip to Blue Lake Bintan & Sand Dunes.
Our guide, Pak Budi was incredibly professional, knowledgeable,friendly... read more and his sense of humor really amused us throughout the trip. He would share some fascinating insights about the town and his own experience cruising through the island.
Though it has been raining lately but we have the best of the weather that day since it was in the early morning,it wasn't humid but just adequate amount of windy breeze for the tour.
The color of Blue Lake was mesmerizing and the Sand Dunes was magnificent!
Really enjoyed ourself over there.
We felt the 2-3 hrs of sightseeing was a fast one. Though we didn't try all the other activities there(archery, horse-riding, ATV, take a photo with eagle and boat riding) but it was a pleasant atmosphere to be there in that majestic place once in a lifetime.
Pak Budi was kind enough to bring us for some souvenirs shopping after the tour as it started to rain heavily on the way back to the hotel.
Lastly, we would strongly recommend this tour to any tourist that wants to experience the Blue Lake and Sand Dunes.Gaultz N
