hi guys, wondering if i wana do bandung --> yogyakarta 6 days enough to travel? tq tq

thanks stimix. i m actually thinking of taking train so shud b better right...

hi guys, need some advices here. i m going for 5d4n to jogjakarta in early dec. My rough itinerary will be as follow;

Day 1: reach morning, check in hotel, shop around malioboro/ soroswijaya looking for tours. Go Prambanan for sunset, followed by ramayana show and dinner. back hotel. Is it possible to book Ramayana show on spot?
Day 2: Dieng Plateau day trip, by the time back hotel should be late. have dinner somewhere near hotel. Anyone stay 1 night in Dieng? is it better to do so?
Day 3: Borobudur, thinking duno wan to do sunrise or sunset. Any recommendations?
Day 4: Plan to go Solo, to see candi sukuh & ceto. Any other interesting places?
Day 5: Back KL!

as there are 5 of us, i reckon it'll be cheaper to rent a car + driver, am i right on this?
as for guide, if needed, mayb go Prambanan/ Borobudur that time only engage.

any other shopping places should i include in my trip? besides malioboro street?

last but not least, any recommendation on places to stay? thinking of 1001 malam but a pricey at RM 130/ night. setia kawan seems to be cheaper, any idea folks? how good is setia kawan? important is cleanliness and walking distance in town area

thank you!

Thanks littleprawn for ur advise!

Day 2: since Dieng has no light, think we better back to town by the way, is malioboro/ prawirotaman/ soroswijayan more happening at night? any nice place to recommend?

Day 4: asked one of my fren, she nearly pengsan when hear 1250 steps of stair. think going to skip this then. or is it worth to climb?

For day trip to Solo, will you advise to take car + driver too? or train will be good? how much is the rental per day for car + driver actually?

noted on the murtabak telur
Is Pasar Beringharjo worth to go? any other shopping areas that i miss out?

how much low we can get at 1001 malam? ya noticed that both setia kawan and 1001 malam got same styles.
heard setia kawan very fast being snapped up.

many thanks again littleprawn!

ya most likely will just do day trip to dieng and back jogja city again since there r so many things to try out!
though my trip is 5d4n, basically the 5th day is morning flight back kl..so we only have 4 nights there..so must fully utilize it..hehe

hey guys, the more i read, the more blur i become...

so let say if im staying outside of manohara, if i want to join sunrise tour
i) is it organised by manohara only? coz heard outside one, they wont able to reach before 6am
ii) paying 350k rupiah is it? i think i read somewhere in hotel website. do i still need to pay usd 12 as entrance?

if im staying outside of manohara, but not joining sunrise tour, i jus wait outside till 6am then i can go in by paying usd 12 as entrance only?

as for the ramayana ballet, currently prambanan there is no show right? coz rainy season. so if im going in dec, the only option will be pusawirata?

thank you!

thx ya littleprawn, will check with my hotel ppl.

dear all,

normally if we engage driver, we have to buy their meals right? are they joining us to the historical sites as well? have to buy their pass too?
Thank you!

ok noted. coz my driver replied me it's inclusive driver, car rental, petrol and parking.
so just wondering whether we have to pay his meals or not. i supposed no need then

many thanks again littleprawn!

bro, such a long trip, u may wan to consider to go Solo as well! nice place lo..cooling n can visit Candi Sukuh & Cheto!
On the way from Jogja can drop by and buy bengawan solo kek too! fabulous! from a shop called Mandarijn. think it's very famous there.

n the while visiting Candi Sukuh & Cheto, can go makan at Pring Kuning! newly opened last Nov i think. Fantastic ayam penyet n beef served!

have fun!
