Hanging with Nettie

Published on Oct, 2024

We feel so blessed to have had the incredible Nettie for this tour. As we moved through our day, it became obvious that everybody seems to know Nettie. She ensured the day had many highlights for us, from helping local school students converse in English (optional, but we loved the interaction with locals) to meeting arguably Indonesia’s greatest living puppet master to having our photo taken with a local military helicopter crew. Nettie just excelled all day long and we are so grateful to have had the opportunity to travel under her guidance.

Wonderful introduction to Jakarta

Published on Aug, 2024

Our tour guide and driver were excellent. Our guide spoke English well and provided interesting and informative commentary on history, religion and culture. We were picked up on time and delivered back to our hotel to meet the very tight schedule we had set so some members could catch afternoon flights.

Ratif is an excellent...

Published on Feb, 2024

Ratif is an excellent tour guide. She is so knowledgeable about the history of Indonesia. You will learn about the Dutch colonization and freedom for Indonesia. At each site she has beneficial information and answers your questions. We would highly recommend this tour to learn about Jakarta and its diverse history.

Jakarta Private Tour with visit to Obama's school

Published on Feb, 2024

We would rate this tour higher than 5 if we could. Our tour guide, Ratih was absolutely the best for this tour. She provided us with incredible knowledge about Jakarta's history from the Dutch colonization to current day Jakarta. At every site we went to she provided indepth knowledge and answered our questions. A highlight for us was to go to the school Obama went to as a child. She made sure we had time there and got to spend time with the teacher and children. The entire tour was culturally enriching and if you are in Jakarta, we would recommend this tour. Our driver was able to navigate the traffic in Jakarta which can be daunting. A fantastic tour with a very knowledgeable tour guide, Ratih, which made our trip to Jakarta even more memorable.

Obama's Indonesian connection.
