We had an amazing holiday in Jogjakarta Indonesia. It is simply beautiful, rich with culture, very nice friendly people and a luxurious stay. We had spent 6 days enjoying Jogjakarta. Here is some of the suggestions for those who are planning to make a trip here;
[5 attractions in a day]
We really had make the most of our journey on the first day of tour. The schedule was quite tight to have had been to 5 different places in a day but it was definitely worth the journey.
Our first stop was in Kejurang Tembelan. The view on top was just spectacular and for me this is a must go place! There was a small amount of fee to enter this place.

The next pit stop was Rumah Hobbit. We thought that our 4 year old might enjoy this place and we were absolutely right. Inspired from the fairy story, the small house was just fascinating.
Rumah Hobbit was not too far from Kejurang Tembelan. The entree fee to Rumah Hobbit is Rp2000 per person and free for the children.

After we were done with Rumah Hobbit, we went to Hutan Pinus Pengger. It's actually in the same area not far from each other. Pinus stands for pines, we were at pines forest. The famous decoration was the giant hand, made from woods on top of the hill.
After we had our lunch break, we continued our journey to Pantai Parangtritis. It was about an hour journey from Pinus Pengger. The ride was cozy, my little guy and me took a nap along the way!
In Pantai Parangtritis, we experienced a horse ride with a pay amount of Rp100k. It was totally worth it! My little guy always love beaches and its a bonus he got to ride on a horse!
The fun didn't end here, last but not least we went to Pasir Gumuk. It's a place that looks like a desert. It's interesting how in the same day we were experiencing different things. First we were up on the hill enjoying the view, then we were in a forest, suddenly we were at a beach, and finally we were at a desert!
Phew, that was just a day tour! We had much more fun on the second and third day of our tour! More adventure coming! I will write more on the next post.
This tour had been easy for us because we hired a supir (driver) to drive us around.
