Thanks so much for the experience! My boys enjoyed the jeep tour and the details of the places that we went.
Our guide Ferry was very kind and flexibel! It was a very good experience :)
Well organised tour. Pick up on time. Juan has been very kind. On the way back to my hotel he suggested me to stop in a specific place to eat if I wanted, I went for it and all was good, I have been welcomed very kindly by his friend, a very kind lady, food was nice, price was cheap. Thank you
Well organised, nice trip. Unfortunately was cloudy the day of my trip, hence the volcano couldn't be seen well. Very interesting the visit to the museum, though
Great tour, wonderful views, excellent guide. Thank you very much Cahyo!
It was a fun trip and Juan was a very nice driver. We had some nice conversations and there was a nice ambiance. Also the jeep safari was very nice, a good mix between bumpy roads & information about the vulcano. At the ride back we shared some words in our language so here is a little dutch word: It is a 'groene' flag to go on this trip! Terimakasih!
First of all we had a great driver called Juan. If you want to have a save feeling driving through the ever chaotic traffic of Yogyakarta, then Juan is the driver to book. Also he has a great playlist, stories to be told, interest in his passengers. The tour was with Mr. Murphy and his Jeep. Also an excellent driver who told us all about the Vulcano, the eruptions, the people living in the area. We had a wonderful tour.
Nice and exciting tour, quite valuable. the driver of Jeep offer comprehensive guide of Merapi. Also a great pick up service, our guide Diki showed us the scenic views along the trip, and gave another ride for us to next destination!
I booked pretty much the night before but the Company responded promptly and communication was good. The price included a seperate driver with the 4 wheel to get up the mountainous paths. The tour guide was early the next day and the drive to Merapi was quite long. He explained points of interest in the town and outskirts as we journeyed. The drive up the mountain was very interesting and I was shown where the lava had flowed to. There wasnt really a lot at the top of Merapi except for the bunker built to provide shelter from hot gases. 2 villagers who had taken shelter there perished because the shelter was buried by the lava and they could not get out. It was never used again. We stopped at various pounts of interest including the remnants of a house that had been destroyed by the hot lava. It was now a museum. I would recommend the tour and the Company anytime
We had a nice experience with a good driver of the Jeep. But the highlight was our contact with our guide/driver Adi. He made the day TOP,
