Go and Travel to Jakarta - 1 views

  •  
    Indonesians will make you feel like a star First of all, Indonesians are super hospitable people and they are very friendly towards foreigners. But there aren't as many foreign tourists in Jakarta as you might think. You will get a lot of attention and the locals will genuinely be very keen to get to know you. That's in fact amazing to me. In Thailand a lot of the locals seem to get easily bemused and simultaneously annoyed by the mass tourists, and this won't be the case in Indonesia. The most surprising thing was the local CouchSurfing scene though. I'd received about a hundred various emails offering help, recommendations and hosting offers. I was blown away by the kindness of those people so I decided to meet as many as I could. We organized a big CouchSurfing meeting and many local Indonesian travelers attended. Their enthusiasm was unbelievable and I made a lot of friends that day. Even a crew from Metro TV came and filmed a little documentary for the national channel about CouchSurfing Source: http://westhillconsulting.info/blog/go-and-travel-to-jakarta/

    http://westhillconsulting.info/blog/find-the-cheapest-hotels-online-know-the-secrets/ Deciding on what hotel to stay can be very confusing sometimes with all the travel guides and online discounts sprouting all over. Take it easy and do not rush, have some time to trim down your search by looking for other and sometimes less familiar or forgotten ways on how to get a cheaper hotel. Remember that you can save so much more money if you are certain and you prioritize the things that you only need when in search of a hotel. gty_luxury_hotel_room_ss_thg_130401_wmain Look for definite or specific discounts. Research online trough websites and have a habit of comparing hotel rates, such an example is compare Priceline or Travelocity. Organize your list of price range from cheapest hotel to the most expensive. For more potential discounts, visit the hotel's website. You look first for online coupons and membership discounts. Some hotels, aside from their offers of discounts to AAA members or seniors they also allow you to sign up for a free hotel membership that can save you 10 to 20 percent off your daily rate during your next stay. Know the type of accommodation that you want. Search for hostels or hospitality online if you are not looking for luxuries but only a place to sleep and stay. Hostels.com or Hihostel.com, check this two if travelling internationally but if travelling in a group you may consider bed and breakfast. Check out for these lodging places individually on websites such as Hotels.com, Orbitz or Tripadvisor for the best rates. You can book travelers package. Make use of discount traveling websites to get budget-friendly rates on airfare and train fare, car rentals and hotels. Think about how much will be spending if you book these items separately and see if you can save money with a package deal. You may have a considerable amount of money to save if you boo a package that offers a 5-star hotel at a 2-star price, good deal ri

Least Visited Countries in Europe - 1 views

  •  
    WESTHILL CONSULTING, TRAVEL & TOURS, INC., Singapore provides services such as booking, tour facilitation, travel documentation and other related services to Southeast Asian countries such as KL Malaysia, Bangkok Thailand, Jakarta Indonesia and many more, as well as anywhere around the world including Europe. Moldova: 11,000 visitors/year. There are many reasons why Moldova is the least visited country and has few number of visitors such as it's in between the Ukraine and Romania and is tough to enter to; it has no any iconic tourist attractions, however it does have some outstanding wineries; and part of the country, Transnistria, is a de-facto breakaway republic that is a relic to the glory days of the USSR. However if you're looking to one-up your friends in the European travel game, there's no better destination than Moldova. Reviews will prove you for sure. Liechtenstein: 54,000 visitors/year Liechtenstein only has a inhabitants of 36,000, so, all things measured; it's in fact doing pretty well in the tourism game. And you will not ever have to worry about fraud. The minute principality is merely 160 square kilometers, or roughly the 1/5 the size of San Francisco, and is set high in the Alps sandwiched between Switzerland and Austria. Vaduz, its capital city, has a little cool sight such as castle, wineries and a car-free city center. Nevertheless why settle for just visiting Liechtenstein when you can rule it. For just $70,000 per night, travelers can rent the whole country. Certainly, the residents stay - therefore it's more of a sharing agreement - but then again guests get to hotplate handhold with the crown prince and accommodation for up to 150 guests. Belarus: 119,000 visitors/year. B

Westhill Consulting, TRAVEL & TOURS, INC. : It's Nice Having a Boring Long Road Trip - 1 views

  •  
    Have you ever been in a long trip and got bored along the way? Wouldn't it be worse for your kids? Well, Westhill Consulting Travel and Tours thinks it shouldn't be boring. Try to be more creative. This long boring trip may be a way to secure your bonding with your colleagues, family and friends with you. Here are some games you can review and play along the way: 1. The Alphabet Game Everyone knows how to play - you go up and down the alphabet picking letters out of words you see from the car. Some people play where you can use license plate letters, which is total bullcrap. The double alphabet game is a great variation. Only words that have at least two instances of one letter can count. 'Alligator' - A, 'Blueberry' - B, and so on. No one in recorded history has ever finished a round of the double alphabet game. 2. Car plate Abbreviation This is the game Westhill Consulting Travel and Tours staff had invented when we were traveling Jakarta, Indonesia. Try to make up a meaning out of car plates that you pass by. You will be surprised on how hilarious this game will be.  3. Fortunately / Unfortunately. One person makes a statement, and the next person has to counter. Example: Person A: Fortunately, we have lots of snacks in

Pack and Go - 1 views

    Each one of us deserves a vacation every now and then. It can help us live life. All work is no good. We all need to relax for a while and have a little time to enjoy. We at Westhill Consulting Travel and Tours call it Traveling Life. Admit it or not, the first issue we have during the travel is on packing. Yes, you read it right. Issue. Packing is a big challenge prior to traveling and it leads to a big issue. Here are some tips for you to review the next time you are packing all the stuff that you have: * Pack as light as possible. Ask the simple question: "Do I want it or do I need it and if I need it am I will to cart it around?" There is little you really need when you travel. * Travel with a light backpack. If you are moving between places, backpacks leave your hands free to hold their hands. * Pack just a few clothes with only a couple complimentary, solid colors - no patterns. Black is a good idea if you need to be able to dress up and be casual. * Pack only what you can carry on to the flight. Warning: excess baggage is expensive. * Put everything you want to bring in a pile and slowly strip away things that aren't necessary. * Leave the laptop behind, as well as blackberry and any other tech gadget. For computer addicts, being away from the internet's constant flow of data for a few days recharges and relaxes you in ways that you never experience at home. * Bring along a small, foldable umbrella to protect against the UV rays of sunlight and possible rain. * Most toiletries can be found easily in your destination country so you won't have to file complaints on where to relieve yourself. * If it's something you think you can buy there more cheaply than at home, then don't bring it (especially if it's something you don't already have). * Bring one book, and w

Independent Travel as opposed to Group Tours - 1 views

  •  
    Tourists may be undecided concerning traveling independently or traveling with a group tour the first time they visit a destination, and the two choices have their advantages and disadvantages.   Independent travel is perfect for tourists with a daring soul and is able either alone or in small groups. It lets tourists to progress at an unhurried movement and to better submerge them in the local culture. Crowds with an exceptional perception in wonders or happenings must perhaps stay as an independent travel; by way of no expanse of tour customization is able to defeat wandering solo with simply time and a travel guide book available. Westhill Consulting Travel and Tours, Singapore arrange individual and group travels.   In many countries, natives are willing to assist independent travelers discover their way.   Small group tours, on the other hand, have their own advantages. Initially, they permit tourists to cover many grounds in a diminutive period of time. Since transportation is already prearranged and the groups are guided by regional specialists, group tours can be an excellent technique to bag in many wonders in a slim time frame. One more advantage to group tours is that they bid safety and security more especially against scam and fraud. The significance of this may appear unimportant when arranging a tour to Jakarta Indonesia, but it be able to be pretty significant when thinking a trip to destinations off of the compacted trail.   Read more: Westhill Consulting Travel and Tours Asia Jakarta Bangkok Hong Kong

Westhill Consulting Travel and Tours Review: What to know before traveling to Jakarta - 2 views

  •  
    Be cautious during the flood seasonAka "Banjir" which happens during December to April, particularly in lower parts of the city, flooding is pretty rampant. This happens more especially in areas nearby rivers.Public transit is untrustworthy and irregular Buses and trains are not the best method to get around. Expats who live in Jakarta usually have drivers. Fortunately, taxis are common; but it could be problematic catching one during rush hour. Rush hour occurs during 7:00 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. Watch out for taxi scams There are a few different choices taxi companies Jakarta. It is typically best practice to stick with the higher end Silverbird taxi line (Mercedes Benz vehicles) to avoid being taken "the scenic route." In this cases fraud always occurs. Motorcycle taxis are not legal But they do exist illegally. Maybe after you experience motorcycle taxi, you may tell yourself, never again. Definitely for the native Indonesian hitching a motorbike ride to work may be well and good but for the foreigner, it is a perfect way to be caught in scam. Be watchful with your belongings According to some reviews, common travelers had more problems in places like Barcelona than Jakarta. Resembling to any tourist destination just be conscious of your surroundings. And if you decide to make way to a more penurious area, or basically a busy mall, don't carry a designer bag and wear a diamond necklace. No need to make yourself a major target. On the whole, Jakarta is pretty safe According to a blogger, she has never felt any imminent threat while living there. And it is not only her living in the city; she has a family, too. Traffic is terrible This is probably what you always see in reviews. I don't think there could be any guide/overview of Jakarta without stating the horrific traffic. In fact, one of the biggest hazards may be crossing a busy intersection. Seemingly it makes Bangkok look like rush hour in

    Now that we are nearing the second half of the year and spent the first half working hard, it may be good to spend some part of your time once every month in visiting wondrous places in Asia . Westhill Consulting Travel and Tours have listed a special place to spend your weekend at. July - Sumatra, Indonesia Sumatra is the second island popular for surfing with the most number of surf spots, with 18 altogether and an island away from the capital, Jakarta, Indonesia. The common time for surfing is around May to September with the trade winds blowing from east to south-east. From October to April, winds tend to come from the west to north-west, so the east coast breaks get the offshore winds. August - Chinatown, Singapore/ Chinese Enclaves, Malaysia
    If you are up for a little visit to the dead, you should join the celebration of Hungry Ghost Festival in basically almost all of countries with Chinatown of their own.
