About this activity

Journey through centuries of Indonesian history on this immersive full-day private tour exploring Old Batavia, Jakarta's historic heart. Discover fascinating layers of culture, architecture, and heritage from its origins as a 13th-century trading port through the Dutch colonial era.

Begin in atmospheric Old Batavia, where cobblestone streets and preserved colonial buildings transport you to the 17th century. Walk through iconic Fatahillah Square, stroll along Kali Besar canal lined with restored merchant houses, and visit the Wayang Kulit Museum showcasing traditional shadow puppetry.

Venture into Glodok, Indonesia's oldest Chinatown, where winding lanes, street food stalls, and traditional temples reflect centuries of Chinese heritage. Explore Sunda Kelapa Harbour where magnificent Buganese Phinisi schooners still load cargo using time-honored methods.

Browse Jalan Surabaya Flea Market for vintage porcelain, Dutch memorabilia, and Indonesian artifacts before returning to your hotel.
