What's it like

In Jakarta, right now.

Tropical downpour — 0.1mm, often dramatic afternoon storms that flood streets. Jakarta's notorious traffic gets worse. Embrace it: a long lunch, a movie, a spa.

Common questions

When is the best time to visit Jakarta?
May to September: drier season, less flooding. December-February brings monsoon floods regularly. Avoid these months if possible.
Is Jakarta worth visiting?
Most travelers use Jakarta as a transit point to Bali, Yogyakarta, or the islands. 1-2 days in the city is plenty: Kota Tua, National Museum, food.
How bad is Jakarta traffic?
Legendarily bad. Plan for 1-2 hour journeys for short distances. The new MRT is a relief. Use Grab/Gojek.
Does Jakarta really flood?
Yes, regularly. The city is sinking (lowest in the world) and floods every wet season. Some districts are particularly vulnerable. Stay in central, elevated areas during Dec-Feb.
