"We asked Eri to take us to places off the Monas-Istiqlal-Batavia axis, and she delivered! We visited markets in SCBD, Glodok (Chinatown), ‘new’ Chinatown in the master planned development PIK 2 which showed different versions of Jakarta (we let her know we were visiting the main sites on our own and had visited two other street food markets already).
We felt her local knowledge was very useful, and we definitely wouldn’t have found where we ended up (and where we ate!) on our own.
Jakarta is harder to explore on foot than any city I have visited before, so having a car was very useful. Eri helped explain local driving customs and navigated central Jakarta gridlock skillfully. "
"Erianti knows Jakarta inside out and was able to taylor the tour to our interests. She is a very knowledgeable and energetic person and we had a fantastic day! I can definitely recommend her as a great guide "

"Never having been to Jakarta before, we thought that spending the day with a local would be a great way to discover the highlights of the city and what makes them proud of their home, and Erianti didn't let us down! She tailored her tour to our specific requests, imparted her knowledge enthusiastically and impeccably, navigated the arduous Jakarta traffic with ease, and was great company for the entire duration. Thank you for a wonderful tour Erianti! Highly recommended."
"Erianti is an incredibly nice girl and the tour was super! She also met us at our hotel and walked is back. We would never have tried the food and walked around so much without her! Thank you for all information!!"
"We booked a food tour on our first day in Jakarta. Erianti showed us different places for the best food in town. She also told us a lot about the (food) culture in Jakarta. We had a great evening!!"
"Eri is an excellent guide for a diverse & interesting street food tour. She managed to find a variety of street foods which we otherwise would not have tried & her explanations of the ingredients & origins was insightful. Her friendliness with us & with the vendors made the experience come alive. Thoroughly recommend."
"Our guide spoke English very well. She was knowledgeable about the savory tastes of Jakarta. The evening began with a stop at the hero’s monument , cathedral and mosque. Then we enjoyed the sounds, tastes and smells of street food. I would highly recommend "

Once in a lifetime experience!
"Erianti was an exceptional tour guide! She picked me up at my hotel and customized the experience given that I was only available in the evening (5:00 - 8:00pm). She even stayed an hour later to cover as much as possible. She looked out for my dietary needs (vegetarian) and showed me local markets, mosques, and historic sights. Highly recommend! "
