5.00Haidar was an excellent guide. He explained that the “Miniature” park was built by Suharto for his wife after she visited Disneyland. It includes examples of typical houses from many different regions/islands of Indonesia. It is a lot like Epcot at Disney World, but focuses on Indonesia. At our request, we also stopped at a puppet maker who showed us how the famous Indonesian shadow puppets are made. Short visits at the Old Town, Independence Monument, etc. The flexibility of the private tour compared to the bus tours offered by the cruise line and lower price make this a much better option. Our visit was during Ramadan and the access road to the port (we were on a cruise) was gridlocked and we ended up walking the last half-mile to the ship past dozens of stopped tractor-trailers loaded with cargo containers.

5.00We are traveling as a family of 5. Our guide Fitri and driver Wawan gave us a memorable and enjoyable tour of Jakarta. For a half day tour, they packed in a lot for us to see. The highlights for us are visits to the wayang shadow puppet maker and master, the national monument, old Batavia, pelabuhan Sunda Kelapa and Taman Mini. Because it’s a private tour so it’s quite flexible. We were able to spend a bit of time at the puppet master studio and learned the process of making a puppet. Wayang puppet was designated to be a UNESCO heritage. Our guide Fitri has a deep knowledge of Jakarta and Indonesia, its history and culture. She brought into life Jakarta’s long history of Dutch rule. She is also a very friendly and warm person. And I don’t even know how Wawan can drive in the Jakarta traffic. It’s quite amazing to see him maneuvering the sea of cars, motorcycles and people! The tour is perfect for everyone who has a short time but want to see a quick overview of Jakarta. I highly recommend it!

4.00We had booked a private half-day tour of Miniature Park Jakarta, because we wanted to see Indonesia in an educational way. A beautiful park with museum where you could have been for hours, if we could have had that time. An unknown reason made that according to the guide's list we had to see many sights in a very short time, which ultimately resulted in sitting in the car for a lot and a long time, stuck in traffic jams and ultimately being able to see little of the planned spots. We had booked for the miniature park, but unfortunately we were too short to see everything properly. Our guide Situ together with the driver were very knowledgeable during the tour and a nice and cheerful company. They have made our day in Jakarta one of the many unforgettable days. 🙏
Great way to expose us to the Indonesian culture.

5.00Enok is a wonderful guide. She share so much about her country. Our driver, Indra was very safe in extreme traffic and a rain storm. We were taken to all the interesting sights to give us a glimpse of the Indonesian culture. They were able to work within the time we had from our cruise ship. An excellent way to spend our time in Jakarta.
