What to do and see in Jakarta, Java: The Best Day Trips from

March 19, 2022 Matilde Konrad

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.

I was nicely surprised to see new connecting terminals quick trains. Good security and pleasant areas to wait. Carriage is spacious and modern. Not very busy during the day but maybe I was just on Airport at a specific time. It would be great if this train would connect each major part of Jakarta. Altogether big improvement and upgrade to existing Airport.

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 tour was great! Our family loved it, including our teenage kids. Mr. Thomas was an excellent tour guide! He spoke very good English and provided history and context at every location. There was good time at every location to see the sites and Thomas allowed us the flexibility to choose if we wanted to stay longer or continue on. Though some of the attractions were closed due to COVID-19, alternate sites were included and it was still a very good trip. The transportation was clean, had nice air conditioning, and provided bottled water. Overall, we really enjoyed it and recommend this tour to everyone!

Agung was an excellent, flexible and accommodating tour guide, and the tour was very reasonably priced as well. Agung's communications were very good from the moment I indicated that we were interested in doing a tour with him, His communications were responsive and clear. He was very flexible in designing a bespoke itinerary for us that would take in many activities we wanted to do. He also accommodated a last-minute change in pick-up locations. On the day itself, Agung took us to locations (hot springs and waterfalls) that weren't heavily frequented by tourists. He was also flexible, incorporating an unplanned stop at the durian farm as well as a last-minute transfer back to Jakarta, at a reasonable price, when one of our team members fell ill. Also, Agung is a really friendly guy with loads of great tips about travelling Indonesia, Within hours of returning to Jakarta he sent us all of the photos and a video of our trip, which was a very nice flourish to round off the day! Overall I highly recommend Travelwings for the ease of dealing with Agung, for the reasonable cost and for an excellent experience. I will recommend Travelwings to all of my friends!

This theme park is very expensive and foreigners pay whole lot more than Malaysian which i think is discrimina ting. The waterattractions are ok, not that scary or sensantional, there are far better ones actuallly. For that price its too expensive and I wouldn’t return. The other parks are ok. Food is expensive and overall only fast food. People swim in regular clothes which is not allowed. I find that to be disrespectful according to the rules.
