9 Top Web and Mobile Travel Startups in Indonesia

The holidays are approaching soon in Indonesia; Muslims are going to celebrate Eid Al-Fitr, on which they often travel to their relatives’ houses, go back home, or spend the holiday somewhere else. Non-Muslim citizens also celebrate this holiday as the time when they finally can take a long vacation. So with all that traveling going on, this is a great time to take a look at Indonesian startups that offer travel services including flights, hotels, train booking, or holiday trip packages.

GoIndonesia guarantees that the room you have selected will be available even when you book it during high season because of its real-time booking management, which connects with the systems at each of its partnering hotels.
