Jakarta Aquarium & Safari is a gem! Stunning Ocean Walkway, playful sea lions, and touchable rays. Fun shows, clean vibe, bit crowded on weekends. Great for families! 4.5/5 stars, worth IDR 250k.

Our group of 5 enjoyed the one-day tour to White Crater in the Bandung area. Although the round trip from Jakarta to Bandung took a long time, the traffic wasn't bad, so it was okay. The vehicle we rode in was a very large car, so we were able to move comfortably with plenty of space. Above all, the very large green tea field was the most impressive. And thank you to our guide, Aisyah, for being so kind and making us feel comfortable.

Purchasing tickets in advance on Klook is still more cost-effective than buying them on the spot. The platform's customer service is very considerate. Due to severe traffic jams on the road, I needed to temporarily change the time. Through the platform's customer service arrangement, it was quick and appropriate. Looking forward to coming again next time. Atmosphere: Very leisurely Environment: Quiet and relaxing Massage therapist: Good technique

Needed this ticket in order for us to get to Dunia Fantasi. Since we come here using grab car, so we just buy the individual entrance ticket. Easy to be used. Just show the QR to the Kakak at entrance. Works well! We had fun spending the whole day in Dunia Fantasi in Ancol.

I visited Taman Safari with my family. The pickup time from downtown Jakarta was at 7:30 AM, and we departed right on time. Our guide was Shoimul Anwar. He was pleasant and kind. We received carrots for free, and bananas and watermelon were purchased separately. It took about two hours to get to the safari, and we immediately started the car safari. We fed the animals as we went, and it was a very enjoyable experience. Following our guide's instructions, we watched the elephant show, dolphin show, and pandas. It was too big of a place to see everything in one day. Thanks to our guide, we were able to finish the itinerary happily. Highly recommend!

Museum MACAN is one of the best modern and contemporary art museums in Jakarta that I think is a must-visit, even for people who aren't art lovers. Its location is in the Kebon Jeruk area and it's quite easily accessible by public transportation or online ride. As soon as you enter, the ambiance immediately feels calm, clean, and a very well-curated experience.

Our tour guide Aisyah was really patient and made the trip stress free and seamless. The tour was able to accommodate my elderly grandmother (some stairs involved!) and Aisyah and our driver both looked out for everyone in the group. The train and minibus were very comfortable and clean as well. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would recommend this trip to anyone looking for a fun day out of Jakarta!
