An excellent tour and a fantastic day in Jakarta!
We had a wonderful day exploring Jakarta with Nabila. She is incredibly knowledgeable and shared the city's history and culture in a way that was both informative and engaging. Her enthusiasm is contagious, and she made every stop along the tour come alive with interesting stories and insights.
Our journey included visits to the beautiful cathedral and the largest mosque in Southeast Asia, followed by the iconic Monas monument. We then explored Chinatown and Jakarta's charming Old Town, learning about the city's rich and diverse heritage along the way.
Lunch was enjoyed in a historic restaurant in Old Jakarta, which was a great experience and the perfect addition to the day.
Nabila was friendly, professional, and passionate about sharing her city with us. We had a fantastic time and left with a much deeper appreciation of Jakarta and its culture.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for an informative, enjoyable, and memorable tour of Jakarta! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Outstanding full-day private tour
An outstanding full-day private tour of Jakarta! The tour company was fantastic, helping us tailor the day to suit us after we decided to switch from a group tour to a private one. It was the perfect choice, especially with my husband being a street photographer, as we could take our time and stop whenever we wanted.
Eko was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and passionate, sharing fascinating insights into the city’s history, culture and modern life while showing us every side of Jakarta. He also took us to a brilliant local restaurant in Chinatown that we never would have found ourselves. A huge thank you as well to our driver, Aboy, who made the day smooth, comfortable and stress-free. We couldn’t have asked for a better team and would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Jakarta.

Wonderful tour of Jakarta
We learned so much on this tour. First and foremost is pride in becoming a nation in 1957 after 350 years of foreign rule. It’s everywhere; statues, monuments, even embedded in the design of the world’s third largest mosque.
Jeffrey guided us with enthusiasm, knowledge and patience. A very enriching experience.

Great day tour in Jakarta
Enok was a great guide and took us to all of the main tourist attractions in Jakarta. There was only four of us in the group so we had plenty of time to spend at all of the attractions and did not feel rushed all day. We had a leisurely lunch and were back at our hotel by 5pm. A really enjoyable day.

Great Jakarta Experience
So glad I booked. Fantastic day and experience. I did not have any plans to do an official tour while in Jakarta but so glad I decided to book last minute. The tour included 3 other solo tourists like me in a comfortable van which included pick up and drop off at our hotels which was a big plus in Jakarta. The day went so fast and I experienced and saw more sites than I would have experienced myself without the logistics stress while having the opportunity to meet other solo travelers with a fantastic tour guide Nabila. I would highly recommend.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Best Jakarta Tour Experience – Amazing Guide!
Our tour around Jakarta was an absolutely wonderful experience, made truly special by our exceptional tour guide. From start to finish, everything was well-organized, smooth, and enjoyable.
Our guide Enuk was knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly friendly. They shared fascinating stories about Jakarta’s history, culture, and daily life, making every stop meaningful and easy to understand. We never felt rushed, and they were always patient, attentive, and thoughtful, ensuring we were comfortable at all times.
What stood out the most was how the guide went above and beyond—adjusting the tour to our interests, answering every question with enthusiasm, and making us feel genuinely welcome. It felt less like a tour and more like exploring the city with a trusted friend.
Thanks to Enuk our guide, we were able to truly appreciate Jakarta’s landmarks, vibrant streets, and rich culture. This was not just a city tour—it was a memorable experience.
I highly recommend this Jakarta tour, especially because of the outstanding guide. If you want to truly enjoy and understand Jakarta, this is the tour to take!

Good
As the old harbor is under water, it’s not possible to exit the car. So you really don’t see a lot.
And the time in the restaurant I would not add to the excursion. So in reality the tour ends after the puppet museum. And as we could not enter the christian church, we have seen 4 highlights: The monument, the mosque, the temple in china town and the puppet museum. - And for all together the price was close to 100 Euro. As I have been more than a month in Jakarta I know, for the locals that is really a lot of money.
I propose to add another museum in the tour.
Thanks to our tour guide, she has been nice.
