Jakarta Travel Guide

 16 Reviews  It is in FX Mall Sudirman Street, Senayan area. We slide down in transparent whirling tunnel from 7th floor to 1st floor, I never try this but it's worth to try, it takes only about 12 second. During sliding we use mattres and jacket for safety. 

 29 Reviews  Batavia is the old center of Dutch Jakarta. It is in a rather pitiful state as many of the historic buildings are crumbling in front of your very eyes. The desire to annihilate everything related to the previous master is very thinly veiled by some efforts to spruce up the main square and the... 

 11 Reviews  Pulau Macan in the Thousand Island chain is a gem. The scene is totally mellow geared towards conscious fun. Snorkeling trips on living reefs, paddle out to their deserted island, get a traditional javanese massage, chill on the sundeck, or dive off the dock. There is plenty to do in this fabulous... 

 34 Reviews  Mini Indonesia park is a skansen type creature with the major difference that instead of putting together an ensemble of old buildings relocated from their original place for the sake of preservation, these houses are newly build in old styles respective to specific Indonesian islands or parts of... 

 28 Reviews  This is very nice tour for a good weather day. From the top of the Monas, the "Monumen Nasional"- you can see a round up view of Jakarta -maybe at good weather you can see the coastline of the Java Sea in north. Better said, you will see that in north the row of hight buildings will suddenly end.... 

 51 Reviews  The "Jalan Thamrin" in Jakarta is one of the main streets and so the architecture goes higher and higher to the clouds! On of central points - is the Bunderan HI -here in rainy weather from taxi - a view to south, in mid at photo is seen the "Selamat Datang" monument - remembering to history, to... 

 37 Reviews  Jakarta has many museums to be explored. Unlike many museums in other countries I have visited that provide audio guide or tour guide to explain exhibits and stories, museums in Jakarta are self-service. I would suggest you google or find the information before hand as many exhibits do not provide...

Bugis fishermen in Makassar, South Sulawesi, large seas using a wooden boat called Phinisi (Pinisi). For hundreds of years they brought trade between Indonesia to Madagascar, Africa. This sturdy... 

 6 Reviews  Being from South Africa why would I wanted to go on Safari here. Anyway I decided to see what Taman Safari was really about and I have to say I really enjoyed myself. You can buy carrots before you enter and feed the animals as you drive through the park. There are many animals to see and also the... 

 8 Reviews  My guide left me and told me to meet him again downstairs in his office. I could now walk in the big wide yard on the east and south side of the building and admire the high minaret (picture 1) and its light structure. I then asked my wives to pose with me, as a souvenir form Istiqlal. . . . :)))))...

 61 Reviews  It is a very different restaurant that I had ever been too. WHY? Good architecture & design inside the restaurant, Friendly service (That's why you paid 10% or 5% Service charge) but I can't think anything good for the food, It's not good value at all, the price is between Rp. 25000 - Rp. 80000... 

 17 Reviews  This building dates back to 1805 and is covered in Baroque mirrors, teak floors, and pictures of celebrities. The bar has been named as one of the world's ten best. The downstairs bar is made of cowhide. On a hot day in Jakarta, the best part is that it is air conditioned. It is rather pricey for... 

 8 Reviews  Hmm I heard a lot of good things about the buffet at the Marriott. I don't want to say i am a snob with regard to eating...but i don't usually go to a coffeeshop of a hotel to enjoy food.Certainly not eat at a buffet. You come to a buffet to stuff yourself...but not a place when you talk about great... 

 30 Reviews  If you have a chance to visit Ancol in Jakarta, you must try this restaurant. The prices are very reasonable and the foods are good. Its very crowded especially on weekend, you need to take a long line but its worth it. Try their grilled fish, crabs and prawns 

 7 Reviews  It is very old and still kicking nigtlife spots in Jakarta. Attended mostly mix of expat and also 'ladies' :) They have ladies night! But every night is full with 'ladies', if you know what i mean. So you know the direction ;) Casual smart is ok.
