My friends & I are going to bandung & Jakarta this november. We're all a bunch of college students - so yeah, pretty tight budget. But what would be the best budget to spend on shopping/food in Bandung for like 5 days. . (no worries for the place to stay since we found a cheap one ) . I think Rm36 = Rp 100 000 now? (or around that). Ive been to bandung before but i just need people's opinion on this too as i couldnt remember how much i spent on food. (usually went the with family so my dad paid for that haha)

Sorry if this topic already exist before. >.<

and anyone haf any recommendation on places to stay in Jakarta? Or activities we could do..


Thanks again

we're going both places (coz tix to jakarta is more cheaper than bandung haha). since we already have our place to stay at bandung, im looking for one in jakarta. We rent an apartment to stay in bandung. for rp400 000 a night. thats pretty cheap i think. and bahagi2 the people we have lg.

not sure yet. proly sewa minivan? for like 10peeps right? or train or bus . depends. we dont really mind i think o__o as long as its safe.

Wait.

Traffic jam x? if by road

oh alrighty. thanks alot mr.arafat XD i'll keep that in mind

Sure, i'll tell when i have found any good deal

Yeah. Got back from Bandung and Jakarta 3 weeks ago. 10 of us so it was FUN!

Arrived at Jakarta and we straight away looked for a van that can carries all of us to Bandung
900 000 rupiah - and the driver even helped us look for hotels in Bandung (since we're pretty much try&error there).

anyways, in bandung, we stayed at Rorompok Hotel in Jalan Dago. (clean, convenient place) since its near to most of the factory outlets = no need to find transport to jalan2 there.

went to almost every f.o we could fidn





but on 3rd day. we went to Tangkuban Perahu. If u ever visit Bandung, try go there. its a breathtaking place. each person masuk 35 000 each. the rest r free unless u want them to bring u guys DOWN there (gotta pay alot , 200 000 rupiah per hour and they tried to sell u alot of stuff with UBER HIGH price - and my advice is NOT to buy from them at first. coz when ure about to leave, all the price dropped instantly.)







Bandung was hella fun !!!!
