Snapshot of Jakarta with fun and care

Great tour on day one of our trip , to gain on over view of Jakarta ‘s sites , and an introduction to its history , culture , food and religions Really enjoyed the variety of each stop And nice to be able to hop in an air con car in between and be transported efficiently by the safe and courteous driver , while we adjusted to the heat . Our tour guide , Neti , was an absolute delight . Warm , bubbly , informative and entertaining , she taught us so much in a short space of time , and was an engaging and humorous companion . We loved her ! Thank you Neti

Great tour

This tour covers the most important sights of Jakarta City. To be honest, Jakarta is not a classic tourist hotspot, and few people would travel there for that reason. However, if you’re interested in the culture of Jakarta’s residents and Javanese traditions, this 7-hour tour offers a lot: insights into history, local religions, how people live here, and the challenges both residents and the city face in the short and long term. Ratih, our guide, was wonderfully patient and answered every question. An excellent day!

The one your you must do in Jakarta

Great day with Ms Raith exploring Jakarta and learning about the history of Jakarta. This was one of the best tour guides we have ever had. She was very knowledgeable and very funny. Having a personal car and driver with the guide made it so much easier to get around this busy city. The boat trip was great to see a different perspective of the city

Great day

We had a very full and fun day. Loved walking thru China town. But of everything we did the Merdeka Square was our favorite and could have easily spent more time there. So much to see and do. We had lunch at Cafe Batavia which was absolutely delicious. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable and seemed to want to make it the best experience for us. Definitely would recommend this experience.

Perfect day in Jakarta with Nati.

We had a great day with Nati, touring in Jakarta. We have seen less touristic sites, we have talked a lot and laughed a lot. Nati is very positive personality, she listens to the customers very carefully and ready to accommodate their spontaneous change of plans. Her English is very good.

Private tour is the way to go in Jakarta

Great guide, with good commentary on sights we saw, local culture, history etc etc. he willingly answered all our questions. We were not able to enter the mosque as it was Friday, but he described it for us. View of city from top of monument was awesome. The only part of the tour Id change is the boat tour— it was hard getting onto the boat over the plank and I was unable to participate in that part of the tour. Jakarta is a very busy city and it was great to be in an air conditioned car instead of a filled tourist bus!
