The Wonders of Indonesia was a fantastic holiday and a great introduction to Wendy Wu. We started the trip in Jakarta and in our opinion, this was the worst day sightseeing and dinner of the trip. We benefitted from flying out a day earlier than the tour and so booked an independent trip in Jakarta. We visited the National Monument and Miniature Indonesia and we felt the detailed dioramas at the Monument explained the history of Indonesia better than the Wendy Wu tour in Bratarvia and the "miniature" buildings showed the differences throughout Indonesia's islands in a easy and fun way. Our opinion - but if this is our main criticism it shows what a great holiday this was.
We travelled with 14 others and no two days were the same. We experienced so much - temples, religious sites, we painted batik, formed our own band and ate dishes I doubt any of us would have been able to choose without our guide Putra's assistance.
Putra was a great asset to Wendy Wu - accompanying us all on the whole tour he was knowledgeable, thoughtful, resourceful, fun, reliable and nothing was ever too much trouble. When as a group we asked to deviate from the itinerary, he was only too happy to assist and enhanced our holiday in so many ways.
The main highlights have to be sunrise at Mount Bromo and Komodo Dragons - but it is the other funny things along the way that we as a group kept referring to and since home, still have a giggle about on our WhatsApp group.
Thank you Wendy Wu - we had a blast - and are looking forward to our trip with you to Mexico in January.
