It was a really fun day exploring places in Jakarta that isn't easy on your own. Took fun and many pictures at the completely different religions spots, Islamic, Catholic and Buddhist, explored the Chinese market and more. My guide, Neti, was super fun and energetic and ready to customize my day to meet my interests. Our driver was a gentleman as well.

After the abysmal experience obtained at my last stop, at 10:30 am they no longer had tomato scratched for toast and that after waiting more than half an hour in an endless line to order, I allow myself to recommend La Noguera de Pozoseco on Km 207 of the A3, just five kilometers.
Greetings.

Ratih gave us a really good look at Jakarta’s touristy areas and also the port and Chinatown. She was very informative, with a vast historical background - all in very easily understood English. Took us to a great restaurant for lunch, we never felt rushed and loved the boat trip on the harbour. Would recommend this tour to anyone.

We were hesitating whether we preferred to see Jakarta by ourselves or with a local guide, but it was the best decision we could have made to book this trip! Our amazing and cheerful guide Neti, made the experience unforgettable! We had a lot of fun for the whole day and were taught a lot of fascinating facts. We had a chance to explore many different districts of Jakarta, not just the modern part. The trip was so well-organized (we were lucky to be there on a local holiday though) that after we finished the main plan, we ended up having extra time and were able to add extra activities. I definitely recommend the tour, especially if you only have one day and you want to make the most of it.

Great private tour including main Jakarta attractions/monuments. We appreciated in particular the visit of handmade puppets' shop. The only thing not that interesting that we did was the boat ride as there are not many things to see - our skipper was nice. Special thanks to our guide and the driver.

Besides Chinatown and the wet market, Jakarta is very unimpressive. It is a big dirty and mostly polluted city. The guy did her best to show us things that might be of interest, but compared to many other spots in Asia. Jakarta is low on my list.
