We had a wonderful time exploring Jakarta’s iconic landmarks during our recent trip, made even more memorable thanks to our amazing tour guide, Nabyla. From the very beginning, she made us feel genuinely welcomed—like we were not just visitors, but guests in her home country. Nabyla was incredibly accommodating and easy to talk to, which made our experience smooth and enjoyable. Her knowledge of Indonesian history was impressive, and she answered all our questions with clarity and enthusiasm. By the end of the tour, we didn’t just gain new knowledge and meaningful experiences—we also gained a friend. Thank you, Nabyla, for being both a guide and a companion on this unforgettable journey.

Nabila is a knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate guide. She took me on a journey rich in history and meaning, explaining each site we visited with great clarity and enthusiasm. Her deep understanding of Indonesian culture, combined with her ability to share it in an engaging and simple way, made the tour extremely interesting. Although I joined the group on my own, I really appreciated her willingness to adapt the pace of the tour and answer all of my questions. She also gave me excellent tips for continuing to explore the city afterward. I highly recommend Nabila to anyone who wants to discover Jakarta from an authentic perspective, guided by a true expert!

Very kind and knowledgeable tour guide. The stop at Indonesia Miniature Park, although interesting, requires time to travel from the city center and perhaps for Western tourists it could be avoided, allowing more time to visit the monuments in the center.

Getting so much fit into one tour was an incredible way to start my trip, and helped me to get the layout, and a general understanding of the city. My tour guide Jeffry was incredibly knowledgeable and very kind and my driver Nino was amazing as well!
