Great Overview of the City’s Main Sites - This half-day tour was the perfect way to see the city's main sites in a short amount of time. Our guide, Rizky, was incredibly knowledgeable and a genuine pleasure to spend the day with. Highly recommend!

Very entertaining and interesting tour of Jakarta with a fantastic guide - We had a lovely 4 hour tour (which ended up taking more than 5 hours) with Rizky. Rizky went out of his way to give us a great experience. He is very knowledgeable about Jakarta and Indonesian history and also gave us many great insights into the life and struggles of the local people. We enjoyed Rizky‘s company and great sense of humour a lot. Thank you Rizky!

A Great Way to Explore the City - We did a half-day tour with Augurius “Gus” and our driver, Mr. Yono, and it was a wonderful experience. They were both very nice and professional. Gus was extremely kind and knowledgeable, sharing interesting information throughout the tour and making the experience even more enjoyable. Having a private car with air conditioning was a huge plus, especially in a city with very heavy traffic. It made the trip comfortable and relaxing. I would definitely recommend this company and especially this team. Thank you, Gus and Mr. Yono, for a great tour!

Fabulous customized tour - The visit was excellent. Mey was knowledgeable, pleasant and very helpful. I had only a short time to see some sites and needed to customize my day. She adjusted to meet my needs and I loved it. Agus the driver did a great job as well. Highly recommend!
