If you’re going to Yogyakarta, I encourage you to book Greenhost. The location is great, nice restaurants in the surrounding lanes, good massage around too. In the city centre, so most tours can pick you up from here. The hotel is beautiful, lots of photo spots. The staff is very nice. I booked the basic room but it has everything you might need (Except a hairdryer). Overall I love this hotel, it’s very warm and the green really makes you feel like you’re in a nice holiday resort.

I had an amazing experience with Belinda and her mum. They were so kind. patient and very helpful and they made the whole experience super enjoyable. What i loved most was that we did it at their backyard and the dye that we used were all natural and homemade, thus it is environmentally friendly. I had a very zen and relaxing experience. i definitely would recommend this activity if you are planning to explore batik making the natural way. I suggest you do till the end of the process till you remove the wax so that you get to take home your masterpiece and frame it. Thank you

Fantastic workshop by Pak Padriman & interpreter Gaudiya! Various gamelan elements are explained in great detail and Pak gently guides you through playing the different pieces of music. The location is also gorgeous (view of the rice fields) and is used for cultural education for children as well. During my session, some local children joined in to play a 15-piece gamelan score together. Some musical knowledge or experience is convenient, but not required. I highly recommend checking out this workshop!

Borobudur Temple: Very easy flow steps of visiting the park and the temple. They provide slippers to wear- make sure you try both styles. The guide had a lot of knowledge, 30mins with guide. Then 30mins to explore ourselves - plenty of time. dont buy souvineers here as it is more expensive. There is a cafe and restaurant as you walk back to the start - has gelato, food, drinks, air conditioning- nice break! About 1hr - 1.5 hr drive in between Temples Prambanan Temple: Had a 30min guide-spoke English. Really nice area to check out other than the temples. You can get on a tram to get to the Siwa Temple = 25,000IDR /per person - however only have 10mins to check it out. They still putting the temples all back together. Buy your souvineers from here. The cheapest compared to Borobudur Driver: Erich messaged night before and he was on time. Safe driving and he made sure we were comfortable.He took us to a place for lunch which provided delicious food (additional). Very friendly and kind.

this is for the adventure seekers. really fun drop down Jomblang cave - you really need to set aside fear and go for it. the cave itself is easy to navigate with the crew. they will hold your hand on the muddy steps and help take photos. worth it! wear something waterproof, maybe need long tights or long pants and long socks. but all your clothes will get dirty so bring a new set of clothes to change. wear slippers there to change to their boots. a tip is to buy a cheap head lamp from Daiso for this trip! the river tubing is also very relaxed after the cave. great helpful guides.

A wonderful experience! The buffet dinner was excellent and very varied, also suitable for vegetarians, vegans, and those with intolerances. The staff was kind enough to seat us together even though we had made separate reservations, and they even accommodated our request to sit in the front row facing the ballet. The show was very engaging, much better than the ones we saw in Ubud, Bali. The covered stage in an amphitheater made the atmosphere even more immersive. A must-do if you are in Yogyakarta!

Mount Merapi is definitely a must go attraction in Yogyakarta. Where can u can get close to a live volcano which is still having a small eruption 2 months ago. We were brought close the 4km radius but unfortunately we couldn't see the top bcos of the cloud. But on the way to the place, were able to see the whole volcano from the car. The jeep driver which is also our guide could speak good English and able to explain all the stuff and being a local who lives within 6km radius when it last had a big eruption in 2009/10. The jeep ride was an experience for my wife and kids. The water ride through the river bed, if want to do it, must wear rain coat. U will definitely get wet. We chose not to do it as I think even with rain coat, it will still get wet. Moreover, it was quite a dry river bed and when the jeep rode over, brought water and sands as well.
