Our trip to Yogyakarta was amazing. Our guide, Andy, was terrific. He was thoroughly knowledgeable about everything we saw and provided excellent explanations. He made sure we were completely taken care of at all sites. The tour company organized 4 days of really interesting visits. At a couple of the sites, they made sure that we had guides from the site that were super knowledgeable and explained everything in detail. The only downside part was our visit to a cavern. If it weren't the rainy season, it would have been great being lowered by rope and harness 60 meters. However, the cave was completely muddy and terribly difficult to continue into the section of the cavern with the rock formations. My advice to the tour company is not to offer this cavern at all during the rainy season. Also, be aware that you have to wear wellington boots into the cavern and they do not have big sizes. If you are a man with shoe size of 11 or greater, they will not have boots that fit you. At the end of the trip, I was surprised. The tour included r/t transport from the airport, which is a good hour away from the city. I canceled our arranged taxi and saved a lot of money. Also, when you book this tour, I would highly recommend upgrading to at least a 4☆ hotel. The cost difference was negligible, but highly worthwhile. A 3☆ hotel would be very basic and probably not acceptable. Despite the cavern, I have rated this trip 5☆, due to the itinerary and mostly because of our guide, Andi. Everyone visiting Indonesia should include this city in their itinerary. It is not a highly touristy place like Bali, but so worth it from a historical and geological perspective, especially if you want to see an active volcano caldera and the volcano that erupted on 2010.
