Yogyakarta

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommended! We had an amazing experience in Yogyakarta, and a big thank you to our tour guide and driver, Ujeee, for making our trip so enjoyable! Ujeee was always punctual, friendly, patient, and professional. He drove very safely throughout the trip, making us feel comfortable and at ease. He also shared interesting information about Yogyakarta's culture, history, and attractions, and was always happy to answer our questions and accommodate our requests. His excellent service, warm personality, and attention to detail made every journey smooth, comfortable, and stress-free. We truly appreciated his dedication and hospitality. If you're planning to visit Yogyakarta, we highly recommend requesting Ujeee as your driver and guide. Thank you, Ujeee, for making our holiday such a memorable and wonderful experience. We hope to see you again on our next visit!

Belinda e a sua família foram muito amáveis. Ela explicou o processo de pintura Batik e quanto tempo demora. Faz-nos apreciar as formas de arte tradicionais e justifica definitivamente porque vale a pena pagar por peças de arte tradicionais. O tempo e o esforço deles são valiosos. Espero que quem ler isto, seja de fora ou de dentro do país, compreenda porque é importante apoiar as formas de arte locais e tradicionais. Algumas destas podem demorar uma semana a fazer!

A truly fascinating experience. I highly recommend that anyone visiting Yogyakarta set aside an extra half-day for this. The gamelan master's daughter speaks excellent English, and the entire lesson was very detailed. We got to try five or six different instruments, and you don't need any musical background to have a great time. Gamelan is an ancient musical form, often using a pentatonic scale, that features an ensemble of various percussion instruments like gongs, metallophones, and drums. It frequently accompanies Javanese religious ceremonies, shadow puppet plays, or dance performances. Debussy was heavily influenced by gamelan, and you can even hear K.K. Slider play a version of it in Animal Crossing. The playing experience is very enjoyable, almost meditative, due to its relatively simple rhythms and abundant repetition. The teacher mentioned that a Chinese band called 'Wo Qi' (which means 'I'm angry') came to learn for a day last week, which was quite amusing. We looked it up and realized it was 'Frog Pond' (Wa Chi)... We'll definitely try to catch their performance if we get the chance when we go back.

Serviço excelente, recomenda coisas bonitas e conta a história muito bem. O guia é amigável e prestativo, ajudando os turistas a conhecer a cultura e os trajes de forma linda. Fiquei impressionado com a viagem.

Our driver, Romy, is super friendly and helpful. He took a good care of us during the tour, made sure we are hydrated (you know how hot it can be in Indonesia). Guides are super recommended too if you want to learn on the buildings and the history behind (we know nothing before this trip). It's a worth to stay longer in Prambanan for the sunset.

Arrangement for pick up was well communicated the day before and agency clearly addressed the additional questions we had on the medium & long route upgrade. Driver was also punctual to pick us up from hotel and handed us over to the jeep driver (also guide). The sunrise view at the bunker honestly wasn’t the best compared to other sunrise I’ve caught in Indo, but the close up view of Merapi when sun is up is truly breathtaking, and the coolness in the morning is a plus. The guide was very friendly and helpful, but with English not being his first language, explanations regarding the eruptions etc. at the various stops became repetitive - not complaining, just sharing. Got to interact with some owls at one of the stops which was a surprise bonus for an animal lover myself!! We upgraded to long route and trip started at 4am and we reached back hotel around 9am. Bring a jacket if you’re afraid of cold; the wind against your skin on the jeep ride in the morn can be chilling.

Wow! an experience like I have never imagined!!! so the day started with waking up at 6:30 and getting picked up by our lovely driver. the drive was about 1.5hours to the first location ( Jomblong Cave) so you have some time to nap, however roads aren’t smooth about an hour in so get ready for a bumpy ride. we settled in for about 40mins, drank lovely tea and changed into the boots and helmet. Be sure to bring some long socks so the mud doesn’t go to your feet! and wear light clothes as it gets sooo hot there (may depend on weather) we explored the cave and took the best photos ever. then made our way back up and had some beautiful dishes (small portion for me though) we then went to do the river tubing and that was even better. make sure to wear swimming clothes as you get so many opportunities to swim and even jump into the water. I Will never forget this day 100% worth it

Ujeee is the driver for our tour, he is punctual on picking us for our Sunrise tour in Borobudur. My friend and I was very well taken care of by Ujeee. Borobudur and Prambanan tour is a must when in Jogja! But with Ujeee, the experience become wholesome.

Everything went on smoothly. Our driver, Romy, picked us up from our hotel on time. Both provider and Romy contacted us ahead of time in terms of our tour and itinerary. Romy was friendly, informative and gave us an awesome experience! We have learned so much from our Borobudur tour, c/o Mr. Mura who knew a lot about history and mythology 😅 Our whole itinerary lasted 6 hours, including travel time. Overall a very nice experience. Will surely book again if we go back to Jogja! 💯
