The tour guide Thomas was very informative and made the tour interesting. Luckily the roads were nice and quite due to public holiday so made seeing the sites easier.

This is a really great tour if you are interested in the history of Jakarta and Indonesia. It is not long and exhausting like some of the other tours can be. Catherine, our guide, was absolutely wonderful. Definitely check out this tour.

Catherine was a great guide and our driver very nice (and skilled) and we packed a lot into a short time, seeing the major sites in our only day in Jakarta city.. we were just the two of us with them. The two tours we did with this company (volcano tour yesterday) are both highly recommended, and feel like you get a very authentic view of the region, its people and the culture. I bought some beautiful handmade wood puppets from the puppet maker/master for a VERY reasonable price, which will be a nice souvenir.

The half day Jakarta tour was crisp and showed important highlights and some insights into the local life. Istiqlal mosque was a great experience and so was cafe Batavia in the old town. Mitchell is an young enthusiastic guide and it was fun having this tour with him. I would recommend!
