This was really the highlight of my trip. It really is a must-do for anyone that comes to Jogja.

this is a must see in Jogja! i love the tubing experience because it was thrilling and take note there is a chance you might fall out the tube! the cave was also a once in a lifetime experience, but it can get quite slippery so just be careful

We were incredibly lucky to stumble upon this hidden gem in Yogya! Getting here was a bit of a challenge with the steep roads, but the breathtaking views of tea and coffee plantations made it all worth it. Mbak Mar is truly remarkable; her passion for coffee is evident as she not only cultivates this unique blend herself but also involves the local community in its cultivation, resulting in a distinct chocolatey flavor. The quality of her coffee speaks for itself, having been rigorously tested in the lab! Here, we had the freedom to pick coffee beans (during harvest season) and plant coffee! all while being accompanied by Mbak Mar, who is knowledgeable and can answer any questions we have. Though her English is limited, she goes above and beyond to ensure her guests understand :) Will come back in 3 years to harvest my coffee plant :)

Booked: Yogyakarta Coffee Farm with Tree Planting!

Pak Krishna was our driver for 5days in Yogyakarta and we all loved him very much. He may be on the quieter side but we totally loved this side of him. He's very helpful and caring as well. E.g. we decided to hike without a guide at Gunung Api Purba Nglanggeran. He was worried for us and decided to hike with us at his own cost (entrance fee to hike). This was totally uncalled for and we are grateful to have him with us. Overall very satisfied experience and will recommend Pak Krishna to any of my friends who are visiting Yogyakarta soon! :)

We were in Jogja for 5D4N and it was AMAZINGG. Jogja itself was amazing, amazing food, amazing people - and we loved our itinerary which Seek Sophie and Pak Sulis (boss) worked hard to help us plan as well! Pak Krisna was our driver, and was absolutely lovely! We made 0 plans for our meals, and he'd take us to eat based exactly on what we described we were craving each time; a couple times we told him we wanted to make a quick detour for XX reasons, and he tried his best to make arrangements for us despite it not being in the original itinerary (not just drive us there, but help us to do research + make plans while we're out on adventures!) He's on the quieter side compared to some drivers we've had, but we appreciate that so much as most of us are pretty introverted and need time to recharge - especially with such a fun and adventurous itinerary. His vibe was just wonderful and we were as reluctant to leave him as much as we were to leave Jogja! Overall, 1000/10 - couldn't have asked for more from this trip.
