INDONESIA TRAVEL AND TOURISM GUIDES:
Visitors to Indonesia will find that getting around in the largest archipelago is relatively easy, even though delays, and changes to schedules are common place.
These are as much a part of the Indonesia experience as anything else and the
whole should be treated with a composure and understanding. There is very little
ranting and raving will do expect to embarrass all concerned and possibly
exacerbate the situation. Flat tires, over heated engines, tropical storms,
washed out roads and mud slides are not deliberately designed to make your visit
to Indonesia uncomfortable or to make your trip around Indonesia
delays.
Most trips can be arranged through local travel agents or tour operators. The
latter are usually found in the popular Indonesia tourist hangouts. There
are literally so much to see and do in Indonesia that any one travel
agent is unlikely to have all the information an adventurous travelers will
need. Get as far as you can by conventional means and arrange the rest as you
need it and as you go. This way the once-in-a lifetime river boat trip in East
Kalimantan, surfers paradise on Pulau Asu in North Sumatra, white water rafting
adventure in west Java and Bali, and tribal discovery in the jungles of Irian
Jaya are possible.
The suggestion is to plan holiday in Indonesia well ahead and make
alternatives, just in case something goes wrong or plans have to be changed at
short notice. And as a wise old Indonesian said. " go with the flow ".
All major cities in Indonesia are linked by air, sea and bus. Local
transport at each destination is readily available from pedi-cabs and mini-buses
to air air conditioned coaches, limousine services and even private air charter.
Visitors to Indonesia must have a valid passport for at least six months
from the date of arrival and have proof of onward flight. Not having one or the
other of these will cause problems, so be warned.
Getting in and out of the country must be done through certain points. If
traveling by air to Indonesia, international gateways are Jakarta,
Bali, Medan, Manado, Biak,
Ambon, Yogyakarta, Solo, Surabaya, Mataram, Ujung
Pandang, and Batam. If arriving in Indonesia by sea, international gateways
are Bali, Jakarta, Semarang, Pontianak, Balikpapan,
Tanjung Pinang, Kupang, and Surabaya.
