I was worried about participating alone, but the driver/guide and jeep driver were very kind and I was able to participate with peace of mind. After getting on the jeep, the tour stopped at various places to take pictures, and we were able to see houses that were damaged by volcanic eruptions and turned into museums, so it was a fulfilling tour.

My chauffeur, Bagus, is a very professional and pleasant person with excellent communication skills and a very good knowledge of Yogyakarta and its surroundings. The car was comfortable, clean and had well functioning aircon. I highly recommend this service.

We went to borobudur temple and restaurant near there by this private car charter. The driver was very kind and great hospitality. I will definitely choose this company to charter a car if I come to visit Yogyakarta again.

Great way to see both UNESCO sites in one day. My guide Taufan was wonderful, extremely polite and happy to answer any question and adjust the trip to my requirements. Fully recommend.

The trip was Nice and Hari (The guide) did a Great job and showed us a restaurant afterwards with a beautiful view. The only thing we regret was that we didnt took The Long tour
