Once again, another stellar performance from the kimkim team.
My fourth experience with kimkim - and each have been terrific.

We had a very memorable trip exploring the east half of Bali with our driver, Essa. He was always punctual and navigated his way around Denpasar, Ubud, and the north the mountains effortlessly.

Our travel specialist, Ana, was great to work with and always replied very quickly. She is knowledgeable about Bali and helped us build a magical itinerary for the trip. We are so happy we booked this service through Kimkim!

Yuqqa organized this trip, and she allowed us to have our input on where to go. She did an excellent job selecting the events, hotels, travel etc. And she did this in a record time of a few weeks. During the journey she followed us on a daily basis. She is pleasant, very accurate, knows her stuff. She made this an unforgettable amazing journey. She is the best!

The drivers were Yadi and Very. Both were very nice, pleasant and excellent drivers. They took us to the most interesting places.

We enjoyed learning about the Indonesian culture, their religion, how they live, what they like to eat, how they travel. We learned about the Indonesian history, we saw their rice-, tea- and coffee plantations. We learned about Batik, the Wayang culture. We spent time in the big cities, like Jakarta, Bandoeng, Yogyakarta and Semarang.
Of special Interest:
Jakarta: Old Batavia, the National Museum of Indonesia, Pasar Baru
Bogor: The Botanical Gardens
Bandoeng: Wayang Golek, Malabar tea plantation
Yogyakarta: Kraton, Making of Wayang puppets, Making of Batik, Prambanan Temple, Gunung Marapi
Semarang: Kota Lama, Ambarawa with train museum

Great Hotel, excellent breakfast. Liked the coffee and ice-cream bar. Service at the dinner room was awkward, staff barely spoke English, kept on asking questions, very pushy and insisting us taking wine.

Explore Tea Plantations in Bandung

Bandung

We first went to see Wayang Golek. This is a must-see for everybody going to Bandung! Then to the Malabar Tea Plantation, see comments below: The guide did not discuss the process of the tea production, but instead showed us the kampung. This could have been an attractive part of the trip but has to be adjusted: more explanation of the tea process, no tour through the kampung.

Jakarta City Tour

Very interesting old Batavia, Sunda Kelapa. Unfortunately the museum at the Old town was closed and the Wayang museum was being rebuild. The visit to the National Museum of Indonesia is exceptional. It reviews the 78 different ethnic groups of Indonesia. It is a must-see for everybody visiting Jakarta Visited Pasar Baru, interesting

Ana proposed right away a plan on this platform, which is a big plus that for most of the country tour guides don’t do. We had already the chance to review a practical proposal and we could change things very fast. The vacation overall was the best of our lives. Beside Bali being a paradise by itself, we squeezed in our two weeks trip everything we could, from workshops to treks, to beaches and cultural visits. Ana was always available and helped us with a last minute change of plan due to our sickness. At the next Asia trip I will definitely hope to have her agency (if not her directly) organise our trip.

We loved Indonesia. It is such a diverse country. But the common denominator is that all the people are so friendly and they seem stress-free. Jessica and her team provided us with a lot of different experiences and were really on top of everything. The whole trip was super well organized and coordinated. All the local guides were fantastic, they all give a wealth of knowledge and each have their own personal flavour to add to the stories which we loved.
