A number of communities have offered unique activities for holidaymakers to pass the Idul Fitri holiday in Jakarta.

They believe the capital never runs out of attractive places to visits, as well as amusing activities to do.

A tourist guide community, the Jakarta Good Guide, for example, offers a "pay-as-you-wish trip" program to several museums in the capital during the Idul Fitri season.

In the program, participants can join the tourist guides in strolling around the capital's museums and pay based on their satisfaction. There is no fixed fare.

They can join the three-day trip partly or entirely, which will be carried out from Wednesday to Friday.

On Wednesday, the community will explore the Jakarta History Museum and the Puppet Museum, both of which are in Kota Tua, West Jakarta.

On Thursday, they plan to stroll around the National Museum and the Inscription Museum in Central Jakarta.
