  1. If you have ever been to Belitung and you are concerned about the difference in cost of less than one hundred two hundred thousand, you should not take a tour package from us. But, if you want your limited time, to be used efficiently to enjoy interesting spots, while enjoying the leading culinary tour in Belitung, our Tour Packages can meet that need. The costs you incur will be more expensive if you go alone and follow the program as we describe here, plus the rush and time wasted bargaining for vehicle rental, boat rental and finding lodging. Click the links below for information on our tour program.

  7. Yes, as long as all participants in the group agree to modify the itinerary that we provide. Thus you are free to set the time and places you want to visit. Changes to the itinerary will not incur additional costs as long as they are still within the distance of the route and the duration of time that we convey to our original itinerary.







  8. No, for Private Tour. The itinerary is only a description of the program and places to be visited. In practice we will make some adjustments depending on weather conditions, time and schedule of your aircraft. We make sure the main places in the itinerary will be visited, it's just that we can exchange time with each other.



    One program that we usually adjust is a trip to the island. Adjustments are made due to weather conditions, due to rain or big waves. If we cannot carry out trips to the island due to weather conditions, we will divert the program to visit tourist attractions in South Belitung (Membalong) or East Belitung (Manggar, Gantong, or Laskar Pelangi areas).







  9. There is. BelitungIsland.COM was originally a photography site about Belitung. For those of you who specifically come to Belitung for photo hunting we provide extra treatment. Our team will guide you to get the spots and timings that you need. We are very concerned and provide facilities for you to capture the Sunrise and Sunset moments in the right spots. Before you leave, please call our Tour Organizer Kusumah +62 819 567 1357 to consult weather conditions or if you need a model or make up. We can also guide you to take photos at human interest spots if needed.







  10. No, as long as the route and travel time are not too different from our original itinerary. We will use extra charge for additional fuel and our tour guide / drive overtime according to the additional route and time used. For additional fuel, participants can pay directly to the refueling place, while for additional overtime drivers, please refer to the terms of the itinerary document on the Reservation Page.



    Additional costs will also be charged for additional meals or events such as: extra food orders at restaurants or barbecues (outside the dinner menu package), live music or single organs, camp fires, or meeting packages. Adding scope such as: additional number or time of rental vehicles (car or boat), hotel room upgrades, or extra extra beds, we will also use extra charges, according to the conditions written in detail on the itinerary document that you can access from the Reservation Page. Itinerary hardcopy documents and price terms will be provided when you arrive in Belitung later.







  11. No, for programs according to our scope and itinerary. We have a fixed price system in place for all participants. We will automatically discount the price if there are more participants. Prices will be fixed at the lowest level for groups with 24 or more participants.



    It is very important for us to provide the same charge to maintain our reputation for tour participants who have previously used the services of our Tour Packages. We will make an announcement if there is an increase or decrease in price for a certain period. Trips in June, July and December are counted as peak season with prices slightly higher.







  12. We offer Tourism Package prices according to hotel choices, so please check our prices according to hotel choices on the Tour Prices page. Alternatively we can provide hotel and vehicle booking services only through our tour service .








  13. For total participants in an odd group, for example 5 or 7 people, we only allow 1 room reduction. So a group of 5 people from 3 rooms into 2 rooms + extra beds or a group of 7 people from 4 rooms to 3 rooms + 1 extra bed. Reduction of rooms to extra beds is IDR 150,000 per night / room (depending on hotel choice) of the total price of all participants. We do not allow the reduction of 1 room to 2 extra beds (eg 6 people are made into 2 rooms), except for special reasons such as children under 12 years who do not want to be separated from parents.







  14. Our children under 5 years are FREE, and they don't get extra beds. If you need extra beds, please go directly to the hotel. Children over 5 years we wear full charge with the same facilities as adults. If the children want to change the room to an extra bed, the maximum is 2 children per family.







  15. If you have made a reservation , then you will have access to a special LINK that is confidential, to open your Reservation Page and Profile Page. If you have updated your reservation status to Confirm, you can find out the price amount and where you have to pay. Payments are made by bank transfer, Paypal , or credit card (via paypal). We will send the receipt via email, the original payment receipt will be given when we arrive in Belitung, except for the company, we can send the receipt to the address.



    You must inform us via the Message Board on the Reservation Page if the transfer has been made. We will confirm by replying to your Message Board and writing down the amount and status of payment in the Table on the Reservation Page. You do not need to send proof of transfer to us. The number of payments can only be accessed by yourself, while other participants can only see their status in the form of DP (Down Payment), FP (Full Payment) or NP (No Payment).







  16. If you do not want to bother, you can transfer full payment to us no later than the time limit or 5 days before leaving. But if you feel unsure, we can understand, you don't need to pay in full. The minimum payment is IDR 350,000 per person (according to the calculation at the time of your reservation), as a Down Payment (DP), no later than before the hotel booking Time Limit.



    We intend this DP to secure your hotel reservation so that booking status does not expire. We cannot ensure the availability of the hotel if the participant has not completed the full payment or DP after the Time Limit has been noticed. The rest of the payment is paid upon arrival in Belitung via Mandiri and BCA ATMs, BCA debit or Visa / Master credit cards with a fee of 3%.



    Application of the price per person is done automatically based on the number of participants, the more participants the cheaper, and vice versa the more expensive prices for fewer participants. The final price is the price calculated according to the participant leaving. We include a table containing the price per person on page 2 of the Itinerary pdf document that you can download if the reservation is Confirmed. We will provide an itinerary hardcopy when you arrive in Belitung.







  17. Vehicle rental system in Belitung is per 24 hours, not per hour. While our program matches the itinerary from the first morning to the last morning, it applies to the unit price that we charge to you according to our price list. For additional time to use the vehicle from morning to evening, it will be charged as a rental vehicle one day because the vehicle can no longer be rented to other users.



    The minimum charge for a rental vehicle in Belitung is per 24 hours. If you only need a vehicle to get to the airport, then rental vehicles can be cheaper, and you only need to pay as a taxi to the airport.



    Since July 2014, visitors have a new choice for land transportation in Belitung with the operation of Street Taxi, the first yellow plate official taxi company in Belitung. You can get this taxi at the HAS Hananjoeddin airport arrival terminal in Tanjungpandan.
