Free walking tours in Jakarta

This was an excellent tour! Our guide was a true foodie, which made the experience even more enjoyable. She arrived right on time and shared a wealth of knowledge regarding the history of the dishes and the traditional methods used to prepare them. If you love learning while you eat, this is definitely recommended!

Super nice and impressive tour. Totally recommanded and Tajz was an amazing tourguide!

We had the best time on this tour! The guide was so thoughtful, making sure we had everything we needed—water, iced tea, and even snacks. Trying the street food was a huge highlight. It’s a 5–7 hour commitment, so definitely come prepared for a long day, but it’s so fun and rewarding that the time flies by.

Great guy, super friendly and carefully chosen places with a variety of dishes. The free beer offer is true!

Great tour and guide! It was fun to experience the street food with Kenya who is a absolute foodie! Kenya explained the vegetarian options that Indonesian cuisine has and gave recommendations where to go in the next few days!

在Fajz帶領下能省下許多摸索交通的時間，且能進到一些私房拍照景點😉（Fajz會幫大家側拍）。當然每個點也都有深入淺出的介紹，非常適合相對喜歡深度遊的旅客😀

Ce tour avec Jar nous a complètement surpris ! Et en bien ! Il nous a emmené dans des endroits où jamais on aurait pu et su aller, il nous a montré une facette complètement différente de Jakarta. Je recommande à 500% !

Had a great time on this tour! Fajz took us to some amazing places and on routes we never would’ve found or seen on our own. He was very knowledgeable, kind, and fun to chat to all day.

What an amazing tour. Erni showed us the most important and historic places in Jakarta. She explained the history in perfect English with a perfect sense of the details we need. She was always open for questions and short discussions. Besides the places we visited we used different transportations like train and tuc tuc. We loved it. Finally she let us taste from locals best traditional food and special Jakarta based healthy tea called „Jamu“. The 4 hours were an absolute highlight of our Jakarta visit. 👍👍👍👍👍

Fajz was a fantastic guide - he went above and beyond, showing us the highlights you would expect around the old Dutch gov't buildings, Chinatown and the national mosque but added a boat trip with a local fisherman, rides on the metro, food and snacks throughout the day and a general level of enthusiasm that you don't often see. He documented the day with group pictures throughout and continually forwarded those to the group so we had a record of the sites from the tour. He added interesting commentary and was able to answer lots of questions. This was a great day - we would highly recommend that you join Fajz's walk

Great tour, got to see places you would never see unless you were with our guide

Such a fun tour! Fajs was informative & generous, treating us to local drinks & snacks, he organised a harbour boat trip, & tracked down the phone 1 of the group lost in a train....what a guy!

It was am amazing tour that covers the highlights of Jakarta. Fajars gave the essential information regarding Jakarta, its history and Indonesia in general and it would have been impossible to cover the visited places on your own. The tour cannot be missed when staying in Jakarta! Terima kasih Fajars!

Jarrr is a great tour guide and very open to answer all your questions and very frank about what is going on in Jakarta. Get ready for an adventure tour and the more energy you put in the more you will get out, we went on longer than the time because Jarr was very excited to share more so get ready for more than you bargained for!

This is the best tour I’ve taken in a long time. Far better than my expectations. I saw everything I wanted and this was at a perfect speed for me. We had fun and laughed and I was able to experience the culture and all that Jakarta had to offer

We had an amazing street food tour with Fajars in Jakarta! Earlier the same day we joined his history and culture walking tour, and meeting up again in the evening for the food tour was the perfect combination. Fajars guided us through the busy street food scene, explained each dish and drink, ordered everything for us, and made sure we only tried high-quality, delicious options. As tourists, we would have been completely lost among the many stalls and choices, so exploring it all with a knowledgeable local guide in a small group made the experience even better. It was fun, authentic, and truly memorable. We highly recommend Fajars—and both his regular walking tour and his street food tour!

Fantastic 4½ h tour and Fajz is really professionel, great in English, history and serviceminded - providing snacks, water, tea and bus tickets. Saw all the sights and he observes what you have most interets in. highly recommand his service and you should tip him generously (min. 35 EUR pp)

One of the most interesting free walking tours I’ve ever joined - very diverse and full of little adventures along the way. I was initially worried about the length, but we ended up having such a good time with the guide that the hours passed surprisingly quickly. We got to experience a lot of everyday life in Jakarta, which was a real highlight. I only missed a bit more insight into Indonesia’s post-independence history, as it’s a fascinating period and would have added even more depth to the tour. Overall, a memorable and highly enjoyable experience

Fajars is an exceptional guide. He showed us many interesting places, explained the history and culture, and answered all our questions. In addition to the major attractions, he also took us to a hidden temple in Chinatown and provided us with delicious snacks at lunchtime. We highly recommend this walking tour with Fajars!

This is without any doubt the best free tour I’ve ever made. Fajz made it really special and was able to guide us to Jakarta as a local. He is not only a very nice guide but also an excellent person that helps with everything he can.

Incredible experience touring the city with Fajar! Do not hesitate to sign up. I was the only person who signed up for the today's tour and he gladly took me around and provided excellent service the whole time. He makes it so easy, from paying for your train fare to the snacks he provides along the way. He knows this city so well and he is passionate about making sure his guests have a great experience. I've taken a dozen walking tours in different countries and his was by far the best! I would not have experienced Jakarta the same way without his expert guiding. Please recognize that his time - and the money he spends on his guests along the way - is valuable and to tip him appropriately.

I joined this walking tour in Jakarta without really knowing what to do in the city, and it ended up being one of the highlights of my trip. Jarr was super friendly, attentive, and explained everything in such a clear and interesting way. He shared plenty of history and local knowledge in a way that was really fun and easy to follow. What I loved most is that we didn’t only visit the usual tourist spots. He also showed us everyday parts of Jakarta, which made the whole experience feel really authentic. We tried local snacks, walked a lot, talked a lot, and I genuinely enjoyed every minute of it. I’m really glad i joined this tour and i would love to come back one day. I can truly recommend this experience with jarr as your guide to anyone visiting Jakarta☺️

I was super surprised by the walking tour, did so much more then I thought we would do. Was the best experience ever!! I saw things I wish I can forget but also is part of Yakarta. Most tour only does the really tourist places but Jarr brought us to places I never would have seen. And I am very happy to see Yakarta in different perspectives!! Loved the enthusiasm from Jarr and how he explains everything with so much passion. It’s a half day tour but if it was possible for a whole day I would have done that! There was so much more to see and to listen to! Jarr made me love Yakarta love so much more than I already did!! Big shout out to him and that day!! ❤️❤️

Had an amazing time with Jar! The tour shows you places only a local would know which is amazing! Jar’s English is amazing, and he is open to answer any questions you have. Thanks again for making my stay in Jakarta even better!

Fifi was an incredibly knowledgeable guide. She has a deep understanding of the history of Java and Indonesia, and explains every site with passion and meaningful storytelling. She took us to hidden gems we would have never found on our own, making the tour feel authentic and special. Fifi is also warm, lovely, and attentive ,always checking if we needed a rest or a short break. You can tell she truly loves her country and her work. We are very grateful for this experience and can confidently say that Fifi is very recommended for anyone visiting this city. We Highly recommend her! ❤️ Thank you, Fifi, for an unforgettable tour!
