Indonesia Tours

For itinerary in Jakarta, Im pleased to amend the itinerary to include the Puppet museum. For Taman Mini Indonesia Indah and Kite Museum, if we want to visit these 2 destinations, we will need to start the tour from 8:00 AM. Because we do not know what time you will arrive Jakarta, I presume it wouldn’t work unless you arrive in Jakarta at dawn time.

Regarding the flight from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur, I’m pretty sure the price ½ you see is the one that hasn’t included luggage. Nevertheless, pleased kindly note that these are the airfares which you have to book and pay directly with the airlines and it can be changed at any time without prior notice. Normally, we always choose the mid-range prices which have good terms and conditions but not the cheapest or highest airfares that will help us to save costs if we need to change the flight at the last minute. This is a necessary back up the helps us to deal with the problems that may arise. As you know, for some kind of ticket, a revision or cancellation is not permitted. I hope that make sense to you. However, if you find the deal of cheaper price for flights, I’m happy to remove it in the itinerary so you can book it yourself. (I will deduct it in the invoice for remaining balance)

For your information, Mola-Mola can be found in Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan and Mola-Mola is a seasonal fish, particularly between July – September is the best month we can see them. They are often found quite deep though (18m to 40m) and only highly experienced divers can dive downside due to strong current. If you still want to have a chance to dive and find the Mola-Mola, we can arrange an extra dive in Nusa Penida on a day trip. However, please note that we cannot guarantee that you will be able to see them since they live in their natural habitat, and even in the Mola-Mola seasons, it is quite difficult to find them.

For your information, Raja Ampat is a remote archipelago in Indonesia and it is a top destination for divers and snorkelers. We can arrange tour services to Raja Ampat and before you decide to visit the island, please note some important information about it below: Flight: The Raja Ampat Islands are an Indonesian archipelago off the northwest tip of Bird’s Head Peninsula in West Papua. To reach Raja Ampat you can fly either from Jakarta which has direct flight to Sorong or from Bali which needs 1 time transit in Makassar then continue flying to Sorong. It takes a long time to reach Sorong and the flights are late. (Jakarta to Sorong is at 00:30 – 06:35. If you fly from Bali, you must fly to Makassar first at 21:30–23:00 then from Makassar to Sorong at 02:40 – 06:05). Both the flights are quite expensive (around 300USD per way per person). When you arrive in Sorong in the morning, you must take the boat to Waisai - the capital of Raja Ampat and it will take about 2 hours. Therefore, it takes a very long time to reach Raja Ampat. Stay period: To have a maximum snorkeling or diving trip, you should stay a minimum of 8 days and 7 nights in Raja Ampat. Accommodation: Please note that Raja Ampat is located on a remote island. Most of the accommodations are homestay with less facilities or traditional eco resorts which are built to protect nature. There is no modern accommodation available in Raja Ampat Islands. Diving: Diving Raja Ampat is recommended for certified and experienced divers with a minimum of 50 log dives. Divers are to bring their own gear / equipment for utmost comfort. Tour Package Raja Ampat: Due to Raja Ampat located in the remote area, it made the tour to Raja Ampat will be more expensive compared with other destinations in Indonesia.

Almost local vendors in Indonesia could prefer using cash for payment. In mid-range and upscale accommodations, big restaurants, or expensive shops, you can use credit cards at ease, but there will be a surcharge of around 3%. Also, ATM cash machines accepting international credit cards are available in airports, cities, and in every town with the logos of VISA and Master Card on them.

In a tropical heat like in Indonesia, tap water is not recommended to drink directly. It only should be used after boiling. If you’re anxious about digestive issues, it’s better to use bottled water. For daily personal hygiene, tap water is still fine.

The national currency in Indonesia is the Indonesian Rupiah. In general, using local currency would be more convenient to pay any expenses during your trip. Foreign currencies like euros or US dollars are also accepted (dollars are more preferable), but they might not be used commonly, especially in outer places or remote islands. Don’t try to exchange money at the airport as the exchange fee is very high. You’d better go to main cities then find an official money changer.

Telkomsel is the biggest telecommunication company in Indonesia so that its SIM Card has the best coverage in almost the country. Hence foreigners often prefer Telkomsel when travelling to Indonesia. Also, you can consider XL Axiata (one of the best network providers here) as its network is also great and you can use it across Indonesia.
