Your holiday at Bintan Resorts will not be complete without experiencing some of our local nature and
heritage tours or exciting adventure attractions.
Bintan Resorts’ tours take you deep into the tropical rainforest or back in time to Bintan’s glorious royal
past or right into the villages to meet the locals and experience their simple way of life.
Our full day South Bintan Heritage Tour gives a comprehensive over view of the heritage and life style
of the island. Traveling by bus, boat and even by trishaw the tour takes you to the trading port of
Tanjung Pinang, the Chinese Settlement of Senggarrang and the magical and historic island of Penyengat.
For those of you more pressed for time but still interested in seeing the local lifestyle, our Tanjung Uban
Tour takes you to the nearest small town to the resort and the Sri Bintan Kampong Eco Tour takes you
to one of the traditional villages where you can experience the Bintan village life!
At Bintan Resorts, nature lovers are in for a real treat. Our ever popular Mangrove Discovery Tour has
been awarded a Pacific Asia Travel Association Gold Award for Eco Tourism related products in 2003.
The day tour goes by boat up the Sebung river giving a first hand view of the flora and fauna of the
mangrove while your expert guide educates you on the value and uses of the mangrove. The night version
is a serene experience of the mangrove highlighted by fireflies!
For those who prefer a more hands on experience in the mangrove, try out our Traditional Fishing Tour
where guests can ride authentic sampans with fishermen and fish using their traditional traps (boo boos)
and nets. For the more energetic and adventuresome can try our Gunung Bintan Adventure Trek which
takes you to the top of the 340m mountain that has been the navigational point of sailors for centuries.
How about getting up close and personal with some gentle giants of Sumatra? Try visiting the
Bintan Elephant Park and enjoy the entertaining performance or go for a short trek on elephant back.
And for those looking for a high energy and high speed excitement try go karting at our go kart track
or ATVing through one of our jungle trails.
So whether your interest is natural or cultural heritage or high speed and high energy thrills, we have the
experience to complement your beach, golf and spa stay in Bintan Resorts!
