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.

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.

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

It was a memorable trip for our family. We really enjoyed feeding the animals right from the car. The show (dolphins, tigers) were amazing. Special thanks to our guide Pak Wildan. Very friendly and helpful. Pick up at the hotel was on time and he safely drove us throughout the journey until we returned to the hotel. He guided us so that we did not miss any of the animal show. Overall it was a very nice experience. Only the weather was not on our side as it was raining the whole day.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience for our Private Bandung Tour with Desi! Our transport to all of the locations were very smooth, and Desi shared with us her wealth of information of all of the locations we had went to - she truly went above and beyond to ensure that we had the best experience, and was tried her best to answer all of our questions. Would recommend this if you are looking to explore the outdoors while visiting Bandung (and staying at Jakarta)!

Our guide, [Leoni], was fantastic – incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, which made all the difference. They helped us customize the itinerary to our liking and he is patient with our questions. The pre-trip planning and communication were smooth and efficient. We appreciated the mix of planned activities and free time. The itinerary included a diverse range of sights, from historical places to local sweets products. Yes, we would highly recommend this city tour, ( Private Tour PIK ) especially for first-time visitors. The overall experience was excellent," according to plan.
