Various efforts to attract tourist within christmas 2014 and new year 2015 long vacation have been done, one of them is by opening steam train tour package from Station Ambarawa of region Semarang to Station Tuntang. Surely, this program supported by PT. Kereta Api Indonesia (Indonesia Train Corporation)/ PT. KAI.
Manager of public relation of PT. KAI Daerah Operasional IV (Operational District IV) Semarang, Suprapto said that this tour is a trial to attract both local and foreign tourist to maximize their vacation's schedule. PT. KAI opens the route start from today (December 22, 2014) until January 5, 2015. "We regularly open three times a day, from Ambarawa to Tuntang." said Suprapto today.
That a week tour package open everyday in Station Ambarawa split in three sessions : at 09.00, 11.00 and 13.00, every trip could carry 150 seats. "Every ticket charged Rp. 50.000,- for a person. We hope this tour could cover poeple's wishes which want to feel train tour.".
But Rp. 50.000,- for the range from Ambarawa until Tuntang is too expensive. Moreover the distance between these two stations tend to be close. The ticket price should be reachable for most passenger.
"The ticket is too expensive for the trip from Ambarawa to Tuntang. Don't because on the name of heritage so that they can decised as they want." said Munir, a local tourist.
Munir asked the ticket for local society could be cheaper. He want the local tourist could also touring by reachable budget.
