Singapore Day Tours to Malaysia & Indonesia?

I'll be in singapore for 5d/4n w/ my mum , 2 weeks from now. We want to take just a day trip to the nearby malaysia & indonesia possibly on 3rd and 4th day respectively.

While searching online, I saw johor bahru(for malaysia) & batam island (indonesia) which seems to be the closest. But got a bad vibe thru the reviews of both place thru the web.

Anyway,

My Questions:

1.) Can you recommend a travel agency/s (can be separate agency) that offers affordable day-tour packages for - Johor & Bantam.(Dont mind being in a group tour, w/ guide & transport back to singapore ) .

2.) How far Is Malacca, Malaysia? by bus what is the travel time from SINGAPORE?

I get two different answers online like 2.5hours then the other is 5hours by bus?, &

3.) Is Air Asia the cheapest among low-cost carrier? or is there other airline?

Thanks!

Update:

Thanks Kingston! Will be heading those places you've mention while in Singapore.

    1) You can try head to Golden Mile Complex located at Beach Rd for tour packages for Batam and Johore. Five Star Tour and Konsortium has tours to Johor. Check whether they have to tours to Batam or not. Head to Harbor Front Center for tours to Batam and Bintan also.

    2) Its above of the state of Johor. Its about 2.5-3 hrs by bus from Singapore only. For bus ride about 5 hrs, you can reach Port Klang, which is near Kuala Lumpur already !!! But if there is traffic jam along the way, then 5 hour is possible or even longer, as I had spend before 9 hours to Kuala Lumpur nearby, so this is possible.

    3) For flying in and out of Malaysia, yes, its possibly is. Check with other budget airline for comparison.
