Very knowledgeable guide

Very nice and interesting Tour. Small enthusiastic female guide whose name unfortunately we no longer know. The driver was also great ... managed to steer us through heavy traffic. She also knew a good restaurant for lunch. We find this tour a must for those who want to see Jakarta. Highlights were old China, the national museum and the historical museum.
