if you ask me, my advise is: first 2 or 3 days in bandung. then, the last 2 or 3 days in jakarta. because you return from jakarta. it will minimize problem if you already in jakarta.

i found this.

http://www.jacktour.com/tour-packages.php?tp=ZJT33R

Day tour Trip:

Tangkuban Perahu
Kampung Daun
Go to Shopping place via Cihideung Village:.
Shopping in Factory Outlets, Choose these places for your shopping places: Dago Street, Riau Street, Rumah Mode, Cihampelas Street, Cibaduyut Street, Pasar Baru, or other places. Find favourites in Factory place!
Beautiful place for dinnerDinner at Bandung Dago highland with a nice views with Bandung Panorama. Many Restaurant and cafe for alternative in this places.
Back to the Hotel in Bandung and relax!

Its about Rm 154 per person without Meals

is the price reasonable?


Therefore can anyone advise how to go for bandung from jakarta (cause the firstday we are in jakarta)
By bus or Taxi or Train
and the price?

Expensive-lah. You can book the whole Avanva at Bandung railway station at ~400-450K rupiah.. That's ~RM150 for the whole car/day.
You can goto Bandung either via express buses or railway. Easiest & reliable for sure via buses. Last time, I directly buy the bus ticket outside Jakarta airport upon arrival & direct to bandung. If train, just goto Gambir train stn (The largest stn in Jakarta) and buy ticket to Bandung

You mean the day tour expensive??

Any suggestion?


I hear weekend very hard to buy train ticket .is that true?

I already suggested. take those drivers inside the railway stn (Taxi). otherwise, google further.. "wth keyword "mobil sewa bandung" I actually wanted to take train from Bandung back to Jakarta but duruing that time, the schedule was delayed due to flood & landslide. So have to retuirn the ticket to the railway office and took the same taxi consortium by sharing wth few more passengers to Jakarta.

Try taking express buses rather than train if you do not want to have the same experience as me.. i.e got delayed, postponed or even cancelled
*
So,how the express bus..charge like?

Per trip or 2 way?

I can buy it in the airport once I arrival?

If rent a car...rm150 per day.
I dun Hv international lincense. And I dunno there well.

arrive in morning is good. just go to shuttle counter. if nearest shuttle is full, you may need to wait about 1 hour for next shuttle. generally, it is easy to get shuttle to bandung.

QUOTE(stimix @ Jul 20 2013, 03:32 PM)
Easier, 1st day, straight take the express bus from the airport to Bandung.. there are few express buses operating from the airport.
*
But the first day I will stay in Jakarta

Sećond day only go Bandung

So,if like this, buy ticket in the airport bus shuttle there?
The next day where I need to meet up?

you can buy air ticket easily this day. buy flight from kuala lumpur to bandung, and surabaya to kuala lumpur.

from bandung to surabaya, can use train or flight. your choice. train is cheaper (usually). but plane is faster (plane about 1 hour, train about 12 hour).

QUOTE(stimix @ Jul 20 2013, 09:07 PM)
Reschedule-lah.. Goto Bandung 1st & thereafter the remaining days in Jakarta. Otherwise if you going to bandubg on 2nd day you need to google for the bus terminal going to Bandung for sure.. I'm not sure how also

For Bandung - brownies much more famous. Kuih lapis famous in Medan. and in Jogja - Bakpia or similar to our Tambun biscuit.

Jakarta..hmnnn..nothing special really...probably try their bakmi wth pansit (Actually wantan mee in short haha)

bak - hokkien for meat & mi - mi-lah - For bandung- expensiive factory outlets lor..well for those going for branded stuff - but I heard mostly replica AAA.
