Discover Jakarta’s Cultural Harmony: A Journey Through Faith, Heritage, and Art
Join me on a unique walking tour through Jakarta’s rich tapestry of history and culture. We’ll begin at the stunning Jakarta Cathedral, a magnificent piece of neo-Gothic architecture that stands proudly across from the grand Istiqlal Mosque, the largest mosque in Southeast Asia. Here, we’ll witness the spirit of religious harmony that makes Indonesia truly special.
Next, we head to Kota Tua, Jakarta’s Old Town, where colonial buildings and cobblestone streets tell the story of the city’s Dutch past. We’ll explore the Museum Fatahillah (Jakarta History Museum), home to fascinating artifacts and stories from centuries ago.
Afterward, experience the magic of traditional craftsmanship with a stop at a Wayang Workshop, where you’ll see how these iconic shadow puppets are made and maybe try making one yourself! Then, we’ll continue to Glodok (Chinatown), walking through vibrant markets and historic alleys before visiting a serene Buddhist Temple, a peaceful sanctuary in the heart of the city.

“Great day out in Jakarta”
We had a brilliant day out with Fifi in Jakarta. We explored all over the city using local transport, visited all the key sites and ate some tasty snacks and food along the way. She had lots of useful information about Jakarta and managed to keep our whole party engaged.

“A real local walking tour”
Fifi is fantastic. She's a very local guide in love of her country. She's explained us everything abuot the history of Jakarta and also about some curiosities. We've tried some local experiences such as metro and food, but also we've visited a beautiful puppet's laboratory, where we've buied some original souvenirs. Great! She's very kind, helpful, attentive and funny. So, why don't you try this tour?

“Best Tour”
Fifi is an exceptionally knowledgeable guide who went over and above expectations in not just making us comfortable on the tour but ensuring to keep us informed along the way. She was a joy to discover Jakarta with and I would recommend her to everyone who wants to see the city’s highlights through the eyes of a local with vast knowledge of the sites and their significance historically.

“We saw it all! Great Guide!”
Fifi brought us to all of the key sites in one tour. We loved seeing the Cathedral, Mosque. Old city, Chinatown and the national monument. She took us to a workshop for shadow puppets, it was so interesting and not touristy. Fifi was knowledgeable about the history and many cultures that nake up Indonesia. We highly recommend the tour.

“Great tour!”
It was supposed to be a 3 hour tour, but becuase I was the only guest I stayed a few extra hours with Fifi. We followed her itinerary, but she was flexible in adding extra sites and trying some foods or drinks if something came on our path.
She loves Indonesia and its people and it shows, she is knowledgable and honest in her storytelling - and so funny! We visited different historical sites, took a train and a bus, went to see a traditional wayang puppetshow and she helped me pick some souvenirs in the puppet workshop. She gave me some tips for Jakarta/Java and even helped me out with booking my train ticket. Allround a wonderful experience, highly recommend! :)
