5.00Great half day exploring Jakarta with Gibran! Gibran was super knowledgeable and told us a lot of very interesting information and history about Indonesia and Jakarta. We had a lovely morning visiting different beautiful and very interesting sites around the city. Jakarta can be intimidating for a first timer but this tour took us to some great places that we had never been able to find on our own. We highly recommend this tour to anyone coming to Jakarta! Thank you to Gibran and our amazing driver! We had a great time!
Truly a great experience!...

5.00Mohammed and his mysterious driver- the illustrious Mr. Clickman. This city tour was so much fun! I've been on about a half dozen of these throughout my travels; this was honestly the best experience. There is such a wide range of culture, architecture, and history in the city of Jakarta. I had no idea what this place was like when I showed up but after the tour with Mohammed, I really feel like I know the city. Muhammad has a wealth of knowledge, he also did a great job of breaking things down so I could get a grasp of the overall picture. I am very pleased with my experience, and I highly recommend this tour.
Valuable experience

5.00Jakarta is an extremely busy city- a tour is a idea to orientate yourself! Hanny was a lovely tour guide who took us around many of the city sites. Our driver Mr Mann coped extremely well with the heavy traffic and knew many shortcuts! Well worth the money
