Club Med and Mandai X Bring Ranger Buddies Missions to Bintan Island

Club Med has teamed up with Mandai X, the venture-building arm of Singapore’s Mandai Wildlife Group, to introduce the Ranger Buddies programme at Club Med Bintan. Running from 16 November 2024 to 5 January 2025, this exciting initiative invites families, especially kids, to dive into a world of conservation through engaging missions and activities.

Ranger Buddies Missions make their debut on the shores of Club Med Bintan, offering a unique blend of augmented reality (AR) and real-life exploration. Families can help Coco the tortoise protect her oceanic cousins’ habitats through interactive tasks available via the Mini Club Med+ programme. Children can also explore the Magic Valley app, which features personalized, interactive stories that bring conservation to life.

This programme is more than just fun—it’s an educational journey that equips children with essential life skills through the C.O.U.R.A.G.E. framework. Designed by pedagogical experts, this framework fosters creativity, courage, and cooperation. The experience is further enriched by Club Med’s Amazing Family programme, which offers curated activities to strengthen family bonds while learning about sustainability.

The impact of Ranger Buddies Missions extends beyond the resort, inspiring participants to make a difference in their own communities. Kids can earn Ranger Buddies certification from Mandai X and take home a personalized digital story about sea turtles to remember their adventure.

Exclusively available at Club Med Bintan, the Ranger Buddies programme promises a holiday experience that blends education, adventure, and a commitment to preserving our planet.
