Strongly recommended - It's the perfect trip for those who have a short time in Jakarta. I've seen all the highlights of Jakarta and learned so much about it. I had initially booked the wrong date and contacted the provider. They responded quickly and agreed to reschedule the trip to that same day. My guide Nanda was lovely. I had a wonderful time.

Jakarta in a day ! - Had the best city tour! BRYAN was very knowledgeable about every single area and didn't miss any info to share. Too much information in short time and you can remember the details. I had so much fun and will highly recommend it to anyone visiting Jakarta and has short time to see the city. ANDY the driver was super cooperative and friendly all day. Such a quiet man and always smiling 🤍

Amazing, insightful, interesting, convenient. - I had an amazing time with this city tour. My tour guide Rafael was an amazing guide who took me to so many places in Jakarta like the national monument, Istiqlal mosque, and the Dutch quarter of the city. I learned so much about Indonesian history and culture from him. If you get to know him, he may take you out to eat later after the tour.

Seeing the main cultural sights in Jakarta. - Enjoyed a very informative tour with my Guide Thomas. He did a great job giving me the history of this city and nation. As a solo traveller I couldn’t have done what we did today on my own. Terima Kasi Thomas.
