Is it possible to haggle over tours in Indonesia, and to what extent?

Everything tourism-related in Indonesia is negotiable. But price-wise you’re probably much better off booking the accommodation yourself, paying your own entrance fees and just getting the guide and driver with car from them. So you’re just paying their rates and the car rental. That is much easier to calculate a fair rate for too. For sure, otherwise they’ll be picking accommodations where they get a commission. Same for any restaurants. This does not usually lead to the best quality places. Disclaimer: I haven’t booked pre-arranged all-in tours myself (though I’ve been on one) but I have lived in various places in Indonesia for nearly 3 years.
