Bandung Tour Package from Mahanagari

As I mentioned on my Facebook Notes, Bandung will always be my beloved hometown. I live in Bandung for about 25 years. I wasn't born in Bandung but lived and grew up there. Currently, Bandung is a bit different in detail compare to 9 years ago since I moved to Jakarta. I hope Local Government can make Bandung more comfortable, because Bandung will always be a hotspot for local tourism.

I never met Mahanagari, I only knew him from his product (actually I kinda like the Angkot T Shirt, I have two of them: Caringin-Sadang Serang and Dago-Gede Bage). I also find him in Facebook and join his group, and finally found his official website. An established website, not an ordinary one.

There are a lot of websites mention about Bandung, specially when you're searching tourism around Bandung and also oleh-oleh from Bandung. Mahanagari website concentrate on his own products and also tourism packages. I believe the product and the package are unique, so Mahanagari.

There are two tourism package currently running by him. One is the tour package to Gua Pawon (Kitchen Cave), a cave with 25 million year age. For those of you have interest in Geology or Earth History, this package will make you more understand about History of Bandung. The other one is Water Package, Tour to Pangalengan (Southern Bandung). Walking around the tea plant and also will be continue with rafting in Palayangan River.

I'm a person who love traveling and adventouring, so these two package can be a good start to explore Bandung in a different way. No Factory Outlet, please... : )

PS: It will be better if the website also has an english version since the title is "Bandung is Home"

Hi, I stumble on your posting today. Thanks for a very nice review on Mahanagari. We try to do our best in designing our t-shirts and our tour packages. So, we're really glad that you seems to love our works.

Actually, Mahanagari is not a he ... we're a team of 6 full-timers, 20 part-timers and about 40 contributing designers.

Thanks again. Love your blog too!

hi Ben,

Thanks for your respond.

I'm a little bit confuse since I found that Mahanagari is a "she" in her facebook account, but my friend said that Mahanagari is a "he".

Anyway, thanks for your feedback.

Again, thanks.
I hope Mahanagari.com will have a bright future and it will be perfect if you add an english version... : ). Biar bisa lebih go international...
