Things to do in Jakarta, Java: The Best Historical & Heritage Tours

December 25, 2021 Nicolette Lion

Chaotic, crowded, and cosmopolitan, Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, is a city of contrasts. Home to millions of people from around the world, the city is a mixture of languages and cultures, poverty and wealth. The city boasts some of the best nightlife in Asia and some of the worst traffic. Every holiday, the locals escape the pollution and the crowds to enjoy relaxing diversions like Ancol Dreamland, an amusement area featuring water parks, beaches, golf courses, and a SeaWorld.

Smaller than Anchor Wat but just as hard to understand how it was built. The steps are much larger than normal steps and no hand rails. It may be difficult if you are older like we are The heat was killing so that made it very hard to walk around. I would do this before Anchor Wat it was a bit of a disappointment,

If you're in Jakarta and want to spend a relaxing day outside the city, this is an excellent day trip! After being picked up in Jakarta we spent a relaxing day seeing the waterfalls and then the "little Bali" Hindu temple. Both sites were very nice, and taking the time to have tea with the Hindu priestess was an added bonus. I highly recommend the tour. The only downside and the reason for the four stars is the traffic trying to get back to Jakarta, which is not their fault but still detracts from the overall experience.

This is a long day trip out of Jakarta but well worth it. Our guide Thomas was very knowledgeable and kept us informed throughout the entire trip. Our driver Dona also did an excellent job of navigating both the highways and mountain roads. We had a perfect day at the volcano and an overall great trip. My wife and I booked this as a private tour and had no worries about COVID, as both our driver and guide maintained all of the protocols required while showing us the sites. I highly recommend them.
