The journey from Jakarta to Bandung has long been facilitated by car transportation via the Cipularang toll road. It is because that is the most favored option, especially when arriving at Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta Airport. This time, we will show how to reach Bandung by combining Jakarta airport pick-up using a car and taking the new High-Speed Jakarta-Bandung Fast Train to reach Bandung. This is particularly enjoyable because, upon arrival at the airport, the presence of someone welcoming us and promptly assisting us to reach our destination is a pleasant experience while trying the new Fast Train service to travel Bandung from Jakarta in only 30 minutes!
In this case, let’s consider an example of a 4-days 3-nights tour, with 2 days spent in Bandung. The first day involves traveling from Jakarta to Bandung, and the fourth day involves the return journey from Bandung to Jakarta.
Day 1: Arrival at Jakarta Airport
- Airport pick-up in Jakarta. This is the first meeting with our driver. When booking a car rental service with a driver, it’s important to inform the number of passengers so that the appropriate vehicle, accommodating all passengers and luggage, can be determined. We have Avanza, Innova, and Hiace car
- Journey from Jakarta Airport to Halim High-Speed Train Station. This journey may take up to 1 hour.
- The waiting time for the fast-train to departure is not too long, lasting around 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on whether we arrive at Halim Station just before departure or well in advance
- There are two ways to book High-Speed Train tickets. The first is through the website https://ticket.kcic.co.id/. This is the recommended method to secure tickets well in advance to avoid running out when it’s time to board the train. By booking online, we can also choose the available classes: premium economy, business class, and executive class. The second method is to buy tickets directly at the station, but this is not recommended as tickets may not be available, and there’s a possibility of waiting for the next train or the one after that
- After the car that brought us from the airport drops us off at the Halim train station, the driver immediately goes to Bandung by car with our luggage via the Cipularang toll road. It is recommended to hire a guide too that will accompany and assist during the travel with train. So the driver will take the car with luggage and the guide will accompany passengers riding train.
- We arrive in Padalarang Station (near Bandung) in 30 minutes by fast-train and from Padalarang to Bandung Station we use the integrated Feeder train in 20 minutes. So our total time from Halim station to Bandung station is 50 minutes
- After arriving in Bandung station, our waiting time in Bandung Station is approximately 30 minutes until the driver arrives to take us to the hotel in Bandung
Day 2: Bandung Ciwidey Tour
In Ciwidey, we can visit places like: Rengganis, Patengan, Glamping, Kawah Putih, Ranca Upas, etc.
Day 3: Bandung Lembang Tour
In Lembang we can visit places like: Tangkuban Parahu, Floating Market, Farmhouse, Orchid Forest, etc.
Day 4: Journey from Bandung to Jakarta Airport
