JAKARTA AND MUMBAI, September 2026. Taman Safari Indonesia, widely known as TSI, is inviting Indian travelers to look beyond standard sightseeing routes and discover the thrill of real wildlife safaris in Indonesia. TSI presents a collection of open range wildlife destinations where families, couples, and photography lovers can encounter legendary Asian animals up close in spacious, naturalistic habitats.

 

The timing reflects a broader surge in Indian travel to Indonesia. Indian tourist arrivals rose from 606,439 in 2023 to 710,207 in 2024, an increase of approximately 17 percent, according to Statistics Indonesia, and reached 734,490 in 2025.

Direct flights now connect Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru to Bali, with additional connectivity to Jakarta, making the journey easier than ever for Indian holidaymakers. Indian passport holders can also enter Indonesia via visa on arrival, valid for 30 days and extendable once.
