FIRST CLASS on Jakarta's Bullet Train (Not what I Expected!) 🇮🇩

I rode first class on Jakarta's high speed bullet train! This travel experience was not what I expected. It was super luxury and modern, not only in first class but also the business class was amazing too.

The bullet train can reach a top speed of 350km/h which is really impressive. You really don't feel like you're going that fast whilst inside the carriage of the train.

I began my journey at Halim station in Jakarta and was heading to Tegalluar in Bandung. A journey that before this bullet train would take three hours, now it only takes 40 minutes. That is an incredible improvement to the travel time.

It cost me 600,000 Indonesian Rupiah which is around $37. For first class I would say that is an absolute bargain. I was really excited to see this Jakarta bullet train.

I arrived super early at Halim station, which was very clean and modern. I grabbed an iced coffee and made my way into the VIP lounge inside the station.

After around 30 minutes waiting in the VIP lounge it was time to board the bullet train.

To see this magnificent train in real life is really quite amazing, it looks very futuristic and modern. There were lots of people taking pictures at the front of the train.

Upon boarding I found the first class cabin to be very wonderful and the staff were very pleasant and accommodating. Although the journey was only 40 minutes you still recieve a snack box, which includes some bread, apple juice and a water.

After the smooth train ride, we arrived at Padalarang station, where I then switched over to a regular slow train to take me into the city centre of Bandung.

This transportation was such a unique travel experience and full on luxury experience! I highly recommmend this Indonesia bullet train. The first class train cabin was great and I highly recommend it for your trip from Jakarta to Bandung.

Join me next time as our journey begins in Bandung! See you then!
