I did the tour on my first night in Jakarta. My guide, Icha, was very knowledgeable, fun and kind. I enjoyed talking to her, but I really liked all the food: ayam goreng, bakso, kwetiau, durian... I was happily full after this tour.
Great tour guide and really good food. what else is needed!
Provided plenty of food tasting opportunities and guide was really flexible re letting us taste whatever we wanted along the way. Couple of planned locations had moved / were closed and the traffic was very heavy Sunday evening which was a bit frustrating. The unplanned walk along the street stalls was really good and enabled us to identify and ask about food were interested in. The guide was knowledgable about about both the food and the culture. Great driver and modern air-conditioned car
