I nv been to batam before but aiming to go next month so I will answer this question based on my judgement and reviews and knowledge passed through this forum.
Yes I will choose to walk as walking able you to understand the place better. Of course you need a map and sense of direction as well.
The taxi uncle will earn 100k from your total sum so if mamasan quote 800k, driver took 100 k , actual price is only 700k . In either case try to lower the amount for the benefit of future bros going to batam. Control the rate. Nevertheless we cant outbid the rich ones whom willing to pay $200 for the syt but at least we does what it could
