pulau seribu is NOT expat friendly. Pricing is totally different for foreigners!!
Yes, I start to be tired of that also.
I think we should make a list of all foreigners/expat non friendly places in Indonesia and boycott them.
Really?Originally Posted by bill_sg
Resorts might have different pricing for expats, but bear in mind that there are around 140 islands in Kepulauan Seribu - and some are destinations that do not have price difference to expats.
My suggestion, use local public transportation/boat to islands in Kepulauan Seribu - they will bring you to places that do not have price differences - off the beaten track worth-visited places that are not even there in Lonely Planet guide book .
Then you've come to the right organizer..
try my service..
yes.. you can boycott those places.. not the organizer
so... try my service.. and I'll show you those places with local price.
so what is your offer ?
as my first message.
