Joyful Jakarta - This was a winderful tour thank God! Enok was a wonderful guide and Apit was a good driver and the car was clean and comfortable with cold AC. Enok shared with us a lot of stories and history of jakarta. The puppet show was also nice. The best part was the lunch in cafe Batavia which was such a wonderful place. I will surely recommend this tour to our friends! Thanks and God bless

Enjoyable and Educational Half day tour in Jakarta - I really enjoyed the Jakarta Half-Day Tour with Highlights. My tour guide Syikal was outstanding. I knew almost nothing about Indonesian history and culture before the tour, but Syikal has a wealth of knowledge. I learned so much from her about Indonesia, especially during the museum tour. Her English is very good, and communication was not an issue at all. At each of the many interesting stops in the tour (e.g., National Monument Museum, Cathedral, Old Port), she explained the associated history and importance. Also, during drive between stops, I was able to get all my additional questions about Indonesia answered. When we stopped for lunch, and I had no idea what food to order, she recommended an item that was delicious. Madon, was the tour driver. It was such a smooth ride. I don’t know how he was able to keep his patients in that crazy traffic. He a really professional driver. I would highly recommend taking the tour with Syikal as your guide. It was well worth the cost.

Review of 1/2 day tour of Jakarta - , We had Eddie as our English speaking tour guide. I cannot give an Excellent review as specified by him. To be honest his English was not fluid and easily understood. He kept referring to information with “My friend tells me”…. not good enough, Eddie should do his own research of local information of Jakarta. Whether Eddie needs retraining, I leave it up to you. Another thing which was off putting, taking photos of us whilst praying in the Catholic Church. Not a good look without our permission. Regards, John Costa Sent from my iPad
