The best time to visit Jakarta is during the dry season which is approximately between June and September, with temperatures ranging 24-32 degrees Celsius; over 11 to 12 hours of sunlight and clearer days for sightseeing and easier travel to the city's major landmarks. In Jakarta, tourism peaks from July through September thus visitors will see a surge in hotel and activities’ prices. For a lesser crowded Jakarta, visit during the month of Ramadan, when the country’s Muslim majority residents will avoid spending too much time outside. It is best to avoid the monsoon season, approximately from September through January. The peak of the Monsoon season is usually in January until early February when rain can be incessant causing the city to flood in certain areas. Travelers should avoid visiting Jakarta during this time.What are the Top 3 Things to Do in Jakarta?
