Dufan or fantasy world is a place of entertainment or tourist spots Jakarta, precisely in the area
of Ancol Dream Park, North Jakarta. Dufan became a destination for recreation for the citizens
of Jakarta and outside Jakarta or even tourists from foreign countries, either with family
or friends – a good friend of children, young people, even parents. Lots of visitors there so the
atmosphere in there was very crowded. Moreover, if the holiday season arrives then we have to
be patient to wait. That is queuing up to buy the entrance ticket. Here surely belonged to the
influx of expensive tickets like other tourist attractions. But of course this is comparable to what
we will get. Here a great many popular games and of course very exciting. So it’s not surprising
if With this exciting game, surely this makes dufan as a superior tourist attractions in
jakarta. Dufan has become the preferred entertainment for the entire family and not boring for a
visit at the dufan place very clean. There is no waste in the waste. In Dufan place also is very
interesting. The plant there in pieces so pretty and funny
because even writings shaped animals. There also exists a writing “Dufan“ which is
often used by visitors to take pictures. If you want toget a good picture, surely we have to queue
up to take pictures. In addition visitors can also take pictures with the clown that is
in dufan. Usually most yng clown photo is visitors children.
After we entered the region dufan then we will see one of
the vehicle i.e. turangga or carousel. Why can it be so? Because of the location of the
spacecraft is right in front of the entrance. The carousel is very big and it is very menakjukan. If
we want to up the merry-go-round that we should patiently queue up again because of
course many visitors waiting in line to ascend the rides on this one. This game we
could enjoy while relaxing with vacation time circling above the horses or the
bleachers under exposure to the rays of a variety of colorful lights.
The second probe can enjoy is skewed. Leaning House because the building is named after this
one is indeed sloping shape. There all goods are
positioned tilted even lantainyapun also tilted. People who entered
the House tilts so inclined will also run well. And in order not to fall we should be walking with
heart heart or we can also mutually holding in order to easy to fall.
Then we can proceed with other kewahana that is a greenhouse. In it there are many glass so it
will make visitors so confuse to find a way out. Here we also have to be extra careful careful
because why? Later we can just crash into the glass. If that happens, we could
be embarrassed later.
Next up is the vehicle of the Thunderbolt. This probe is one of extreme rides here. The game
is of course very exciting and test our adrenaline sangan. The game is very in demand for visitors
who have guts. Actually this is just lightning in the form of a regular train rides. But that makes
it very daunting because of the very high and drove at high speed there’s even a rail
line with a round-shaped so that at the time of passing through it we seem to
feel downward, there is also a rail line with derivatives or climbs very high, in fact there is
alsoa line that swooped. But don’t worry just lost heart for the standard,here there are
also rides the Thunderbolt kid. Although the same same drove at high speed but at least the
trajectory of the spacecraft is short and also low enough so it is safe for visitors who are afraid
of heights. But for those who love the height we can ride rides hysteria. We will be at an altitude
of about 200 metres and then would slide down in a few seconds and then slid upwards and
then downwards again and keep repeating so of course this game will make the
visitors screamed hysterically.
After that we can also relax again in the Ferris wheel rides. Ferris wheel at the dufan is high so
that when we are at the top so we can see the extent of the area of dufan. And when at the
top also is presented is very beautiful scenery. Here is also very suitable for couples because the
atmosphere is very romantic.
Furthermore, we can take a Kora-Kora. This game keeps visitors as though were on Board then
we tossed blindly at the actions of the waves. Many visitors feel dizzy and nauseous after getting
into a vehicle.
In addition to the kora – kora we will also made dizzy by the Tornadoo. In this game we want to

A long time ago in a small village on the shores of Lake Toba there lived a married couple with a
daughter, Seruni. She was sad because her father set her up with a young man who was her own
cousin. She had a love affair with a young man in her village. Desperate because she didn't know
what to do, she wanted to end her life by jumping into Lake Toba with a pet dog, Toki. When
she walked toward the cliffs on the shores of Lake Toba, she suddenly fell into a hole large stone
to get into the base. She was so desperate not to ask for help to anyone. She preferred to die in
the hole, she told herself. Suddenly the walls of the hole begins to close. "Docked ...! Docked
stone..!" Cried Seruni, so that the stone wall is getting closer and choke her. Toki saw the
incident immediately ran to the house to ask for help. At home, Toki immediately approached
Seruni's parents with barking, pawing the ground and pacing around his master, Toki tried to tell
that Seruni was in danger. Aware of what is implied by the dog, Seruni's Parents immediately
headed for the field. Both ran to follow Toki and followed the group of villagers up to the edge
of the hole where their daughters fall. Residents just heard the faint sound of a hole "Docked,
Docked stone...." However, no one could reach that fell into the hole until the shock was
catastrophic and making a hole slowly docked and closed by itself. Seruni inside the hole was
eventually trapped and could not be saved. Some time after the shaking stopped, at the top of the
hole was closed and it appeared a large stone that resembled a girl's body that seemed to hang on
the walls of the cliff on the shores of Lake Toba. People who saw the incident believe that the
stone is an incarnation of Seruni and later renamed it as "Batu Gantung", Hanging Stone in

“The Legend of the Bali Strait”


When the island of Bali is still united with Java, this story happened. In Daha Kingdom, there
lived a Brahmin man named Sidi Mantra. He has a son. Her son name is Manik Angkeran.
Manik Angkeran is a man who likes to gamble.
One day Manik Angkeran lost gambling and could not pay his opponent. So he asked his father
for help. At first, Sidi Matra did not help. However, Manik Angkeran threatened to hurt himself
if he did not comply.
Because he loved his son so much, Sidi Matra prayed to God for help After finishing praying, a
mysterious voice was heard. The voice told Sidi Matra to meet Naga Besukih on Gunung Agung.
but Sidi Matra must use a genta bell to meet Naga Besukih
When Sidi Matra met Naga Besugih, Sidi Matra got lots of gold and diamonds. However, gold
and diamonds were spent by Manik Angkeran. For the second time Manik Angkeran lost
gambling. He asked his father for help again to pay the debt. So Sidi Matra returned to meet
Naga Besukih. This time, Manik Angkeran secretly followed his father to go to Naga Besukih.
A few days later, Manik Angkeran stole his father’s genta bell to meet Naga Besugih and asked
for gold. Manik Angkeran got lots of gold and diamonds. But Manik Angkeran still felt
unsatisfied. He saw a very bright Besugih Dragon gem at the end of dragon’s tail. It like a big
diamond. So, Manik Angkeran also wants it.
The next day, Manik Angkeran came to Naga Besugih again. She snuggled. Beaver Besugih
quietly walked towards the rear of Naga. When the Naga Besugih still slept, Manik Angkeran cut
the tip of the dragon’s tail. Then, he quickly took him away. He forgot that his running speed
was not comparable to the size of Naga Besugih’s body.
However, Nagaa Besugih felt it. He woke up and saw Manik Angkeran running. Naga Besukih is
very angry. Naga Besugih licked Manik Angkeran’s feet and turned to ashes. Sidi Matra knows
this. Sidi Matra begged the Naga Besukih to revive his son.
Naga Besukih will grant Sidi Matra’s request, if the tail returns to normal. finally, using his
magic, Sidi Matra returned Naga Besugih’s dragon tail back to normal. As promised, Manik
Angkeran was revived by Naga Besugih.
Sidi Mantra is happy that her child lives again. However, he also knew that he could not live
with Manik Angkeran again. Manik must learn. So, using his wand, Sidi Mantra made a line
separating it from Manik Angkeran. From the line came very heavy water and eventually became
the sea. The sea is the strait of Bali. That is separating Java island and Bali Island.

 Quality of good tour guide

A. Brainstorming

Cr: https://www.facebook.com/UN.Careers/posts/would-you-like-to-be-a-tour-
guide-for-the-united-nations-apply-if-you-speak-arab/2273427002681919/

Do you know what is that?


Have you ever seen that?
What do you think about this advertisement?
B. How to be a good tour guide?
Anyone who has taken a group tour knows just how important the guide is to the
success or failure of the trip. A good guide can elevate and enhance the experience, creating
cherished memories that will last a lifetime and make guests want to return. A bad guide can
do the opposite, leaving guests feeling neglected and unimportant.
What are the qualities of a good guide? This is the list of the must-have traits of a good
guide.
 Patience
Answering questions they’ve already answered multiple times will not bother a
good guide. They will show both competence and enthusiasm, as if they are
hearing that question for the first time.
 Good with “Difficult People”
Most times the problem is that “difficult people” don’t know they are difficult.
Great guides know how to master the “beast” in the group. They deal with them
and they keep the rest of the group safe from them.
 Empathic – Can Feel the Room
Their radar is always on to feel the room. They will put people at ease, reassuring
them that they are in good hands and that they should try to have the best time
possible.
 Good Sense of Humor
A guide with a good sense of humor will increase the enjoyment of the tour and
temper any tensions that may arise.
 Energetic
Long days, large groups, physical activity, and nearly daily crisis management
require a great deal of energy, both mental and physical. Guides often have back-
to-back tours and no days off.
 Timely
Punctuality is a must-have quality for tour guides. If a guide is not on time that
makes for unhappy travelers and frustrated co-guides.
 Organized
If a tour guide is organized (and the tour is well-planned), the experience should
feel seamless and effortless. Logistics should be nearly invisible to the eyes of the
participants.

Cr: https://avonturin.id/blog/apa-itu-itinerary/
Do you know what is that?
Have you ever seen that?
What do you think about this itinerary?
B. What is itinerary? And what types of itinerary?
An itinerary is a plan of a journey showing the route and the places that the visitor will
visit. Thus, it is a schedule or timetable produced in association with a package tour. It is
basically designed to identify the route, day-by-day journey format, origin, destination, and
all the enroute halting points, period of halts along with accommodation, mode of travel,
activities and other services offered during a visitor’s tour.
An itinerary is not just a piece of information but a selling point aimed at convincing
potential customers. Itineraries are also produced for travellers’ booking flights; it then
includes departure time, airport, terminal details, flight number, baggage limits, transits, seat
allocation and minimum check-in time, which doesn’t really include any marketing element.
But package tour itineraries play a key role in attracting clients.
The quality of a tour package is determined by the suitability, nature and
comprehensiveness of a tour itinerary. It is generally printed in tour brochures but only after
the clearance from the expert team as it includes logical inclusion and sequential arrangement
of a variety of features.
A package tour itinerary may be divided into five types with the primary objective of
reminding the duties and responsibilities of different stakeholders involved in organising a
package to such as tour managers, vendors, coach drivers, interpreter, escorts and guides.
Thus, the five types of itinerary can be tourist’s itinerary, tour manager’s itinerary, escort or
guide’s itinerary, vendor’s itinerary and coach driver’s itinerary. Another classification of
itinerary may also be done keeping in mind the needs of tourists and convenience of tour
operators such as GIT itinerary, FIT itinerary, Tailor-made itinerary and special interest
itinerary. Let us now learn the nature of these types in detail.
Classification to remind individual responsibilities:
 Tourists’ itinerary
Tourists’ itinerary is given to a particular tourist for his reference as part of the
package tour. A tourist expects the tour to be organised as per the itinerary
mentioned in the package tour he/she has purchased. For planners it is important
to check its feasibility. Generally planners organize FAM trips in advance to have
the feel of the itinerary and identify the limitations and they are rectified before
they are incorporated into a package tour and made available for the reference of
the tourists. Hence tour planners should take into consideration various aspects
such as purpose of tour, budget, accommodation, transportation, choice of
destinations and attractions, activities at destinations, legal issues, host and guest
behaviour and so on. They may also keep certain things as optional.
Basically, a tourist itinerary is a reference for the tourist to follow during his
journey like points of halt, hotel, time taken between two points, meal plans,
activities, attractions to visit etc. apart from arrival and departure points/time and
check-in check-out time. Tour operators are expected to strictly follow the
itinerary. If they intend to change or modify it that should be only in the interest of
safety and security of the guests. And they should take their client into confidence
before doing that.
 Tour manager’s itinerary
The role of tour manager is crucial to any package tour as he/she has to
perform different duties from planning to actual operation of the tour continously
on the spot. Professional expertise, knowledge of different travel issues, crisis
management and his/her own personal experiences matter a lot in organising a
tour. Tour manager’s itinerary includes the complete details of the whole tour
from day one to the last day. Apart from the general details as listed in a tourist’s
itinerary a tour managers itinerary also carries information about alternative
arrangements, contact details, quick references, differential rates and tariff details,
details of coach drivers and escorts and guides. This helps him/her to have
complete control over the smooth conduct of the tour as well as to execute
contingency plans if required at times.
 Escort or guide’s itinerary
An escort or guide should know in detail where the group is being taken to,
what activities and events are to be organised, time management of the tour and
other group details. Vast experience, knowledge of practical ground difficulties,
presence of mind and readiness to handle crisis of an escort or guide adds to the
successful conduct of a tour. The escorts being physically with the group/tourist
all through
the journey, they are more than expected to deliver and keep the image of the
company in high esteem.
 Vendor’s itinerary
Vendors play a major role in delivering what is mentioned in the clients
itinerary. Hence it is unavoidable but to be aware of the specific parts of the
itinerary so as to make the necessary arrangements in advance and delivery to the
fullest satisfaction of the guests when they arrive at their place. For instance, a
hotel may organize a surprise welcome event when the group arrives as per the
nature of the group and time of arrival, may offer special services and enhance the
service satisfaction and value addition. It is possible only if the vendors know at
least the specific part of clients itinerary which is expected from them.
 Coach driver’s itinerary
A typical coach driver’s itinerary includes group arrival point and time, pickup
points and time, turn around points, restricted areas of driving, sightseeing
activities, other entertainment activities, parking spaces, entry points, drop-in
points all with specific time. For instance, it may be seen that at places a driver is
asked to drive slow, which is mentioned in his itinerary so that tourist may have a
better view of a monument and take photographs. A copy of the client’s itinerary
resembles a coach driver’s itinerary with the above mentioned additional
informations. This helps the driver in coordinating with the escort and managing
the group.

C. Steps In Developing/Planning A Tour Itinerary


 Step 1 – Research other tours in the market place
Careful planning is required when developing an itinerary for your tour. A
helpful exercise is to take a tour which will be similar to the tour you wish to
develop and obtain copies of other tour brochures for comparison. This will help
you develop ideas for your tour, give you an idea of what is already in the market,
give you detailed information on terms and conditions and provide possible ideas
for brochure design and its content.
 Step 2 – Name your tour: ........................................................
 Step 3 – Map out the duration, frequency and departure point of your tour
o When will your tour depart?..................am/pm
o When will your tour return?.................am/pm
o How often will your tour operate?.................per/ wk
o Where will the central departure point be? ................
o Will you offer accommodation pick up? Yes No
 Step 4 – List the major locations and highlights of your tour
Where will your tour travel to?
What are the main highlights that visitors are going to experience?
 ....................................................................................................................
 ....................................................................................................................
 ...................................................................................................................
 ....................................................................................................................
 ....................................................................................................................
 ...................................................................................................................
 Step 5 – Research your tour content and commentary
List the main topics you wish to include in your commentary, such as flora,
fauna, history, culture, as well as the main points to consider with each of these
topics and the resources you will use to find the information.

Topic Main points to consider Resource

 Step 6 – List any third party activities, attractions, entrance fees and inclusions
List any activities offered by other companies or entrance fees and determine
if they will be included in your tour price or offered as extras. For example, cruises,
bike rides, entry into national parks, caves etc...

Description of Supplier Cost per Included in price


activity Details Person YES/NO

 Step 7 – Obtain permission to access private and public properties


Whether you are passing through, stopping for meals or visiting attractions, it
is imperative that you obtain permission in writing from the property owner prior to
accessing any private property. If travelling through property managed by the
Department of Environment and Conservation, you will need to apply for a
Commercial Operator’s License.
If your itinerary includes entering Aboriginal Land, restricted area you will be
required to apply for Entry Permits for which you will need to gain access approval.
 Step 8 - Perfecting your tour timing
It is crucially important to map out your tour itinerary accurately to ensure that
you arrive on time for activity and meal stops and return to your original destination
at a reasonable time.
 Step 9 – Test driving your tour itinerary
It is very important to do several ‘try runs’ of your tour itinerary to ensure you
get the timing right. It is also a good idea to invite people who have some knowledge
of the industry and are prepared to give you constructive comments, to do a tour.

Guide : They sell daily needs like food, vegetables, households, etc.
Tourist : Wauu… It’s such a big market. I imagine it’s full of people every day.
Guide : Well unfortunately, there are only a few sellers remain. The others have
moved to bigger markets. Maybe they think this market doesn’t give them
enough profit, so they prefer to find and another place. The government
tries to renovate and develop this market to attract sellers to come but it’s
