VerifiedPosted on Tripadvisor Ilona MAmazing Guide & Driver! We had an absolutely amazing time in Yogyakarta thanks to our driver and guide Ewri! She took us on the volcano jeep tour and to Pindul Cave tubing, and honestly made the whole experience unforgettable. From the beginning she was attentive, fun, kind, and genuinely lovely to spend time with. She looked after us so well throughout the trip, always making sure we were comfortable, enjoying ourselves, and getting the most out of every place we visited. She also took incredible photos and videos for us - some of the best memories from our trip! Nothing ever felt rushed, and her positive energy made the whole day even more special. We truly couldn’t recommend Ewri enough. If you are visiting Yogyakarta and want someone reliable, friendly, caring, and passionate about what she does, definitely book with her. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience - we will remember it for a long time!VerifiedPosted on Tripadvisor Štěpán FPerfect Merapi & Cave Adventure with Amazing Driver We had an absolutely perfect day! We started with a jeep tour at Mount Merapi and then continued to a cave and river adventure. Everything was very well organized, smooth and covered. Our driver, Estri, was amazing – she took care of everything for us. She picked us up at our hotel, arranged guides for both activities, helped us with everything we needed, and even stopped for lunch. At the end of the day, she dropped us back at our hotel.

He was extremely helpful in explaining to me about the expectations for mount sumbing. The itinerary was clear and detailed.
