Jakarta tour

Published on Nov, 2024

The guide was excellent and everything that was in the program was done and we could remove things that we don’t want and modified the itinerary I would recommend this tour and guide.

Outstanding “taster” for Jakarta highlights!

Published on Nov, 2024

The Jakarta Heritage Tour was an excellent day of sampling the tourist highlights of the Indonesian capital. Enok and my Driver picked me up at the airport hotel (which made traffic a minor issue) and then showed me Monumas, the Mosque, and Catholic church. Lunch at a local restaurant, which catered to this vegetarian, was delicious (but is NOT included in the tour fee). The afternoon was spent learning about old Jakarta near the port. Overall an education and joy. I loved it.

A must experience tour!!

Published on Nov, 2024

Enok was an excellent tour guide and very knowledgeable about the history and cultural sites of Jakarta. The car was very comfortable and the driver knew the short cuts to avoid traffic, as much as possible. She made the tour very memorable for us by including a Tuktuk and ride, walking through old China town and a wonderful visit to Kota Tua ( old city). Lunch at Cafe Batavia was the icing on the cake. Enok also explained about local delicacies including drinks like Jamu - a truly refreshing drink after a long walk. The buggy ride around the old city transported us to the old colonial past of Jakarta. We highly recommend the tour and Enok as the guide.

GREAT
